🌿 **DAY 7 — WE MADE IT! 💜**

7 days ago, I invited you to spend just **5 minutes a day intentionally doing something you've been doing your entire life... breathing.**

Today, do your final 5 minutes of coherent breathing:

🫁 Inhale for 5 seconds
🫁 Exhale for 5 seconds

Easy. Comfortable. Nothing forced.

Do your usual body-and-mind scan before and after.

But today, instead of only asking what changed during those five minutes, I want you to think about the **whole week.**

What did you learn about yourself?

Did you notice patterns in where you hold tension?

Did you become more aware of your breathing during the rest of your day?

Did certain times of day work better for you?

Did you notice changes in your thoughts, mood, energy, or body?

Did you find yourself using your breath when you were stressed or overwhelmed without being reminded?

Or maybe your biggest discovery was simply that sitting still and intentionally breathing for five minutes is surprisingly hard. 😂

There is no "right" takeaway.

💜 DAY 7 CHECK-IN:

I'd really love your feedback today.

What is ONE thing you noticed or learned during these 7 days?

And...

Is coherent breathing something you think you'll continue using after today? Why or why not?

Thank you to everyone who participated, whether you practiced all seven days, missed a couple and came back, commented every day, or quietly followed along.

This wasn't about maintaining a perfect streak.

It was about becoming a little more curious about your breath, your body, and what happens when you intentionally give yourself 5 minutes to pay attention.

🌿 **DAY 6 — 7-Day Coherent Breathing Experiment**

We're almost there! 💜 Who is still with me?? Around day 5 is when I find I struggle to keep going with a new habit/discipline I am working on. Stay strong!

For the last several days, we've been paying attention to what happens **before and after** five minutes of coherent breathing.

Today I want you to notice something different:

**When does breathwork actually fit into YOUR life?**

Maybe you've been doing your five minutes first thing in the morning.

Maybe before bed.

Maybe sitting in your car before walking into work.

Maybe you've remembered only after seeing one of these posts. 😂

And maybe you've caught yourself using a slower breath at some completely different moment because you were stressed, irritated, overwhelmed, or just needed a second.

That's what I'm curious about today.

🫁 **Your Day 6 practice:**

Take your usual **5 minutes of coherent breathing.**

Inhale for **5 seconds**
Exhale for **5 seconds**

Easy and comfortable. Nothing forced.

Do your usual quick body-and-mind scan before and after.

But then ask yourself:

**If I wanted this to become something I actually use in my daily life, when would it make the most sense for ME?**

Not when you *should* do it.

When would you realistically do it?

💬 **DAY 6 CHECK-IN:**

Where or when have you been doing your five minutes?

And after almost a week of experimenting, have you caught yourself becoming more aware of your breathing at other times during the day?

Tomorrow is Day 7, and we're going to look back at the whole experiment and see what, if anything, we've learned.

No perfect streak required.

We're just practicing coming back to the breath. 💜

We're on Day 5! 💜

Today we're going to pay attention to something we don't always stop long enough to notice:

How am I actually feeling right now?

Before you begin your breathing, take a moment to check in with your mood and emotions.

Are you feeling:

😌 Content?
😬 Anxious or on edge?
😤 Irritated?
😔 Heavy or sad?
🤯 Overwhelmed?
🥱 Drained?
😊 Happy?
🤷‍♀️ Just... fine?

Whatever is there, you don't need to change it.

Just notice it.

Then:

🫁 5 minutes of coherent breathing
Inhale for 5 seconds
Exhale for 5 seconds

Easy. Comfortable. No forcing.

When you're finished, return to your natural breathing and sit quietly for a moment.

Then ask yourself again:

How am I feeling now?

Maybe the emotion changed.

Maybe the intensity changed.

Maybe you simply became more aware of what was already there.

And maybe absolutely nothing changed. That's information too.

💬 DAY 5 CHECK-IN:

Give me your mood/emotion before → after.

You can keep it ridiculously simple:

Overwhelmed → calmer
Irritated → still irritated, but less tense
Happy → happy
No freaking clue → slightly more of a clue 😂

We're not using our breath to tell ourselves what we should feel.

We're practicing noticing what is. 💜

🌿 **DAY 4 — 7-Day Coherent Breathing Experiment**

Well... apparently part of becoming a Breathwork Practitioner is remembering to remind everyone to actually breathe. 😂

I dropped the ball yesterday and forgot our Day 3 post, and then somehow managed to make it all the way to 4 p.m. today before realizing it.

Oops. 🤦‍♀️

But I said **7 days**, and we're doing 7 days. Missing a day doesn't mean we failed the experiment. We notice it, pick it back up, and keep going. That probably applies to a whole lot more than breathwork.

So... **Day 4. We're back!** 💜

Today, let's pay attention to **ENERGY.**

Before your 5 minutes, check in with yourself:

⚡ Do you feel tired or alert?
🧠 Foggy or clear?
😴 Heavy or restless?
🌿 Somewhere comfortably in between?

Then:

🫁 **5 minutes of coherent breathing**
Inhale for **5 seconds**
Exhale for **5 seconds**

Easy, comfortable breaths. Nothing forced.

When you're finished, let your breathing return to normal and sit for a moment before deciding what happened.

**Check your energy again.**

Did you feel calmer but more awake?
Sleepier?
Clearer?
More focused?
Exactly the same?

There is still no result we're trying to create. We're just collecting information about **your body and your breath.**

💬 **Day 4 check-in:**
Give me your energy before → after.

And if you missed yesterday too, congratulations, apparently I personally gave everyone permission. 😂 Just pick it back up today. We'll still get our seven days in.

**Consistency doesn't require perfection. It requires coming back.** 💜
