Day 4: Four Minutes + Humming for Your Nervous System

Four minutes of slow breathing in the morning, plus a simple humming practice tonight.

Day 4 of 7

Four minutes today. You're more than halfway through the week, and the practice is likely starting to feel more familiar.

Tonight we add humming bee breath — Bhramari in yogic tradition. The technique is simple: inhale normally, exhale with a gentle hum. The vibration from humming naturally calms the nervous system. You'll feel it immediately.
