In stressful times you can use the power of your breath to help calm feelings of stress or anxiety. Box breathing is a simple relaxation technique that can help you ‘reset your breath’ and return it to its normal rhythm. This video demonstrates box breathing and highlights its benefits. In short, it involves: - Imagining breathing around a box - Inhaling as you visualize going up one side of the box, pausing and then exhaling as you picture going down the other side of the box. In moments of stress and anxiety, box breathing is an easy way to slow down and help calm your body and mind. Many thanks to Dr. Joanna Mansfield, psychiatrist at Sunnybrook’s Women’s Mood and Anxiety Clinic, and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy Clinic for her expertise and voicing this box breathing video. Video produced by Brent Creelman and Jennifer Palisoc in Communications & Stakeholder Relations at Sunnybrook.

The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts by Dr. Gary Chapman. Have you ever been in one of those relationships where you think you're doing everything you can to please your partner, but they're still feeling frustrated and unloved? I mean you're giving them compliments, you work hard all day to bring home the bacon and pay the bills, you give them gifts, and you even do some chores around the house, but they're still feeling unloved...i mean, what more do they want! it's incredibly annoying and disappointing, right? Well, the reason why they aren't feeling loved, in short, is that you're not speaking their love language! The premise of the book is that people don't give and receive love in the same way. Most of us think that the way we want to be loved is how others want to be loved as well, but this is not the case! There are in fact 5 love languages... This is huge because if you're not speaking the same language as your significant other, then you could be missing the mark completely and not even know it..... it's basically the equivalent of a British guy trying to talk to a Chinese guy .. it's not going to go well because they're simply not going to understand each other. If you are going to have a strong relationship, you have to know how you and your partner both give and receive love. The 5 love languages are: words of affirmation, quality time, receiving gifts, acts of service, and physical touch.

When children become teenagers, hormonal changes shift their circadian rhythm—they get tired later. Since schools typically don't adapt to their new natural sleep cycle, they often get less sleep during weekdays, affecting their memory retention, emotional well-being, and health. If we want teenagers to learn and prosper, schools could do what sounds so simple, adjust their start times to the biological rhythms of their students.

Not true. Anxiety is actually a survival mechanism. It tells you when you’re in danger -- or at least when your nervous system believes it is. Anxiety tells you to step away from a high cliff edge so you don’t fall to your death. It warns you when a person has bad intentions (usually we call this intuition). But we can experience anxiety in situations where we are actually safe -- and that’s when it becomes a problem. In these cases, your nervous system has gotten “stuck” in danger mode. The whole world suddenly looks like it’s out to get you. Cue the anxiety! This is a big problem because “danger” can look like making new friends or business connections. It can mean putting yourself out there for a promotion or going for a big new client. It can shake your confidence -- literally, by giving you the jitters -- before your big competition. Anxiety can tell you to stay small, play it safe, keep to your lane -- when what you really want is to reach for the stars. Most anxiety treatments focus on changing your thoughts -- thinking positively, using affirmations, etc. Or, they might suggest taking a deep breath (hard to do when your diaphragm is frozen in fear -- and yes, this happens). What we really need are methods to jolt your nervous system out of danger mode and back into safe and happy mode (assuming you’re not actually in physical danger, of course). This doesn’t happen at the thought level -- it happens in your biology. In your autonomic nervous system, to be exact. Your vagus nerve is part of your autonomic nervous system and functions to help your body deal with stress. This video gives you three vagus nerve exercises to rewire your anxious brain and bring you back to a centered state. #VagusNerveExercises #PolyvagalTheory #AnxietyRelief #SukieBaxter DISCLOSURE: This video description may include affiliate links.
