TQGEE BRTH TECHNIQUE TO RELV STRESS

Try this:

The following technique is like a window washer’s squeegee. In a single stroke it can wipe you clean of stress, allowing you to see clearly and be present with your patients. Here’s how to take a “Squeegee Breath”

=> Take a big breath – up to the top of your head – and hold it for a 3 count => Then exhale all the way to your toes inviting any stress, tension or worry out with your out breath => Hold the full exhale for a 3 count => Then allow your breath to breathe normally.

Go ahead and try it now ….

=> INHALE to the top of your head (…2…3)

=> EXHALE AND RELEASE to the tips of your toes (… 2… 3)

=> Allow your breath to breathe normally

How does that feel?

Now, tomorrow at work take this “Squeegee Breath” each time you touch a doorknob to go in the room with a patient … and see what difference you notice in the quality of your day.
