How to do it: Sit together facing the screen. Breathe in through your nose for 5 seconds as the circles grow and out for 5 as they shrink. When to use it: With a partner, a child or a friend, to relax together or after a tense moment. You are in control. If you feel dizzy or uncomfortable at any point, stop and return to your natural breathing.
