You don’t need a special technique to calm down.
You just need a slower exhale.
Try this: breathe in for four, hold for two, and breathe out for six.
That longer breath out is what tells your nervous system it’s safe to come down a notch.
Do it a few times, wherever you are.
At your desk, in the car, or standing in the kitchen.
No one needs to know.
Keep your shoulders soft and let your belly move.
That’s it. Small, simple, and always with you.
