Welcome to this month’s edition of A Peaceful Pause.

A Peaceful Pause is one of my regular monthly offerings for my closed Substack community, along with The Reset.

Each month A Peaceful Pause features a guided audio practice from me.

There’s now two years’ worth of guided meditations in the A Peaceful Pause archive which you can find all in one place here.

If you’re currently a free subscriber, upgrading your subscription will give you access to all my new meditation and yoga practices here as well as my growing archive of all posts.

This month’s edition of A Peaceful Pause is based on a technique I share in my book, Rest + Calm.

I’ll be guiding you through a Triangle Breathing practice to help you regulate the rate and depth of your breath and in turn, your nervous system. In this version we’ll begin with an even pace and then adapt part-way through.

Research has shown that improved focus and respiratory performance are just a couple of the benefits that regular practice of controlled breathing techniques like Triangle Breathing can offer.

Get yourself into a comfortable position and join me for your 3 Easy Steps: Triangle Breathing practice (6mins 53secs):

(Tip: Avoid doing this directly after eating, particularly if you’ve just had a large meal.)
