Use the physiological sigh when stress spikes
Before the small shift
The moment
Sudden stress locks the body in fight-or-flight, and waiting for it to pass wastes the next meeting or set.
A way in
Try this
- Inhale fully through the nose.
- At the top, take a second short sharp inhale to fully fill the lungs.
- Exhale slowly through the mouth; repeat once or twice.
If you try it
What might shift
Heart rate and stress tone can drop within about a minute so you can re-enter the moment.
