“i did send her this one which is a bit easier”
Easier guided breathing session for beginners.
Thanks for this. My pensioner mother came back from the doctors yesterday with a chest infection, on top of this she has mild bronchitis. I've just sent her this exercises as I'm hoping it might improve her lung health. Although i did send her this one which is a bit easier: this video But thanks for posting it, I never knew about this method. Just tried it myself and it rocks.
“Guided session”
Guided Wim Hof session as a sleep aid.
Hi, two suggestions that work for me: 1) The Wim Hof method. How to do it: link Guided session: this video 2) Reveri - self hypnosis app: link Also, do you get enough sunlight during the day? They say it balances your circadian rythm. Some other resources that might be helpful: link link
