Meditations for Postpartum and Pregnancy – Quelling the Anxiety
The key is to breathe deeply and slowly
The key is to breathe deeply and slowly. You can do this as you cook; as you pick up toys; as you walk outside pushing a stroller. You can do this several times a day. Research shows that when we breathe deeply and quiet the mind, our body chemistry changes. The body creates good chemicals that are healing as opposed to bad chemicals which can raise our blood pressure and create inflammation. Plus, a more relaxed body and mind just feels better throughout the day. This is a great little meditation if you suffer from anxiety. You can practice it anywhere at any time and it's a good tool to have in your tool box for coping with the stresses and demands of motherhood.
