How often do you hear “Take a deep breath” from your friends, family, and colleagues weekly? If your answer is quite a few times, you are definitely stressed, anxious, and panicked and clearly do not know how to relax or distress. Here’s a simple solution to your problems – deep breathing meditation.

Repeating this exercise repeatedly helps to let the slow relaxing breath permeate your whole body and release the stress being held gradually.
