How to Use this Space
Purpose
FND is often a "high-alert" state for the nervous system. Controlled breathing acts as a physical override, signaling to your brain that you are safe.
Modes
- Box: Equal inhale, hold, exhale, hold. Best for immediate panic.
- 4-7-8: Deep calm. The long exhale triggers the parasympathetic system.
- Pacing: A gentle, natural rhythm for daily maintenance.
