Session Time
1
Vagus Nerve Stimulation
Extending the exhalation triggers pulmonary stretch receptors that stimulate the vagus nerve, immediately slowing heart rate and lowering blood pressure.
2
Heart Rate Variability (HRV)
6 breaths per minute (0.1 Hz resonance) aligns heart rate fluctuations with breathing, creating optimal cardiovascular coherence and stress recovery.
3
Herbal Tea Pairing
Pair your evening breathwork with warm Linden blossom or Reishi mushroom tea to amplify GABAergic relaxation before sleep.
