4-7-8

I am pretty excited to try this as I don't have trouble falling asleep but I do have trouble staying asleep. According to what I read if you employ the 4-7-8 method regularly not only will it put you back to sleep it can also lower blood pressure,calm stressed minds and help manage anxiety and anger responses. 4-7-8 is a breathing method used in India by yogis practicing meditation. Simply breath in to the count 4 seconds,hold for 7 seconds and exhale for 8 seconds. It is supposed to put you to sleep within 60 seconds and the additional benefits come in the following weeks or months depending on your problems.
