5 Energizing Breathwork Practices to Nourish Your Body This Fall! 🍂✨

Can you believe it’s already Fall?! 🍂 I don’t know about you, but I just love the transition from Summer to Fall. 

This time of year I’m ready for some cooler weather, warm drinks, and cozy sweaters 🍵 Not to mention the beauty of the fall leaves and getting out in nature to hike and forage.

As the leaves turn and the air gets crisper, it's the perfect time to focus on rejuvenating your body and spirit with the power of breath. Here are five invigorating ways to embrace the season using breathwork:

1. Grounding Breaths Feel the shift in the air and connect with the earth beneath your feet! Take deep, slow inhalations through your nose, followed by extended exhalations through your mouth. This grounding practice will stabilize your energy and wrap you in a warm blanket of calm.
   

2. Nourishing the Lungs Unleash your inner lion with Lion’s Breath! Inhale deeply through your nose, then exhale with a powerful roar—tongue out! This energizing technique clears stagnant energy and supports your lungs, keeping you vibrant and healthy as the temperature drops.
   

3. Balancing Energy Combat those autumn sluggish vibes with Alternate Nostril Breathing (Nadi Shodhana)! Sit comfortably and use your right hand to alternately close each nostril. Inhale deeply through one nostril, then switch and exhale through the other. This process balances the left and right hemispheres of the brain, reduces stress, enhances focus, and fosters a sense of inner peace and balance.

   
   

4. Relaxation and Reflection Settle into those cozy fall evenings with Box Breathing! Inhale, hold, exhale, hold—all for equal counts. This calming technique helps you reflect, find clarity, and prepare your heart and mind for the beautiful changes ahead.
   

5. Warmth and Comfort Wrap yourself in warmth with Humming Breath! Inhale deeply, then hum on the exhale. This delightful practice not only generates cozy vibes but also soothes your nervous system, making it a perfect ritual for those chilly days. Humming also produces nitric oxide, a powerful antioxidant, perfect to keep you healthy in the colder months.

Incorporating these breathwork techniques into your fall routine will help you stay balanced, energized, and beautifully connected to the magic of the season! 🍁💖
