The 4–6 Long Exhale
```A calming breathing exercise that uses a longer exhale to help your body slow down, release tension, and settle into a quieter rhythm.
```How The 4–6 Long Exhale Works
```This exercise follows a simple rhythm: breathe in for 4 seconds, then breathe out for 6 seconds.
Breathe in slowly through your nose for 4 seconds.
Breathe out gently for 6 seconds, keeping the out-breath longer than the in-breath.
Continue for a few rounds until your breathing feels slower and more relaxed.
