Breathing for when you're low energy
One technique, a couple of minutes, no sign-up.
Start here
Bhastrika (Bellows) Activation — Rapid forceful breaths to fire up the nervous system. About 1 minute.
Why this works
Fast breathing at around 30 a minute drives the sympathetic side up - more adrenaline, more alertness. This one is for waking up, not calming down.
Other techniques for this
- Energizing Breath — Short, powerful breaths to boost alertness.
- Wim Hof Style Breathing — 30 deep breaths followed by a retention. Energising and resilient.
- Night Feed Reset — Get back to sleep after the 3am wake-up, not two hours later.
- Workday Shutdown — A closing ritual that tells your body the workday is over.
- Morning Primer — Steady breaths with a bright hold to start the day awake.
