How to relieve stress from your body right now

Breathe, breathe they say. But when you can't get that first deep breath in, it's hard to start. If you tend to hold your breath or you consistently shallow breathe, your body does not like it. With this technique you can instantly change your physiology and enact your parasympathetic nervous system.

This also lifts their mood, strengthens their immune system, and reduces their blood pressure.
