Breathing and Meditation

Breathing and Meditation

Breathing exercises and meditation can be hugely beneficial to help reduce stress, promote calmness and relaxation. Meditation can also promote emotional health, aid with anxiety, and help lower your heart rate and blood pressure. The Fern Centre hosts mindfulness sessions on a regular basis which is a great opportunity to try some relaxation and breathing techniques.  For more information on dates, please see our monthly newsletter.

Warren from Acacia Therapies has kindly shared some short breathing exercises and guided meditation which you can try from home by following the below links.
