Balloon Breathing

This technique is fundamental to ALL deep breathing techniques. No matter the pattern or rhythm, you’ll want to learn and practice this technique.

• Pick a color for your balloon and picture it in your mind.
• This balloon expands down into your belly. When the balloon fills, so does your belly.
