In this practice, I'm inviting you to notice and/or engage with the "four parts" of your breathing: inhale, pause/transition, exhale, pause/transition. You can do or not do any of the practices, and in whatever manner or degree you choose. You can learn more in the show notes below and at https://esthermpalmer.com/moved-to-heal

What’s in this episode of moved to heal?
I introduce the "four parts" of breathing in two ways.

The first way is to notice what's already happening:
- there's an inhale
- then there's a moment of transition between inhale and exhale
- then there's an exhale
- and then another moment of transition between exhale and inhale

The second way is to engage with these four parts. Here are a few options:
- allowing fuller or longer inhales and exhales
- allowing more pause in the transition
- creating an even rhythm between inhale and exhale

I guide you through this practice step by step, and you can choose to skip or stay with any area you like. You can do this Moved to Heal practice while reclining, seated, standing, or moving.

Integration suggestion
After listening to the episode, perhaps check in: did you notice something that you want to remember or follow up on? If yes, maybe jot it down in a notebook or record a voice memo to help you remember.

You can give this practice a try when you're ready!

Be moving, be true, be you!
