The counting should go directly from breathing out into breathing in. There is some extra unaccounted time where it says to repeat and breathe in, while the timing is paused. It should be continuous.

no, it is the 4 7 8 technique, you are supposed to hold for a count of 7, that is part of the exercise. I use this technique to stop panic attacks. If you can't hold your breath, that is fine, but this specific exercise includes holding your breath as part of the breath control.

Also I want to cry everytime I get stressed or worried, and my household is not really the best when It comes to being a calm place, I don't know what to do, I've been drinking teas, going outside, talk, trying to sleep, doing activities but everytime the only thing I can think about is my heartbeat and It instantly makes my body shake of nervous, fear
First my air came out too quickly. I see this needs practice. Thanks for helpful replies to this question. A good question!
Wow this is amazing..... Instant relief 👌
Always been doing this. . Thank-you. . This works for sure ✨💚
I cant get this to work so i just listen to semi-relaxing music to help me sleep, trust me it works
I remember trying to trick last year during the summer to prepare myself for waking up early for school again and also because I had a shitty sleep schedule. here I am again because I've forgotten the numbers lol
Esto también ayuda con el hipo, me lo recomendó un compañero y es muy efectivo
Although it seems hard, I must admit it truly does work .. even when I am laying on the floor gasping for any air left!! 🎉

the way it is being done in this video is way way too slow, makes it extremely hard to do especially for a beginner. if you watch the 'How To Perform the 4-7-8 Breathing Exercise' by andrew weil here on youtube notice he does it faster than shown in this video
This video is incomplete. Breathe in through both nostrils for 4 seconds Hold breathe for 7 seconds Breathe out from mouth for 8 seconds🥰🥰🥰
MRO I can only breath out for only 4 sec
it’s helps a bit but i cannot understand how to breath out for eight seconds after only getting four seconds of air lol, even if i go slow, it feels a bit suffocating

As you are actually thinking. . . get up, wash the car at the car wash, go to the grocery store. (PRESS MY LIPS TOGETHER) .almonds, coffee, trash bags. . .something else. . . hmmm, what was it? (4...5...6, DAMN, I DIDN'T MAKE IT TO 8!) make kids birthday cupcakes and take to school, stop by the bank, buy stamps at post office. . . . I wonder how much a stamp is? 28 cents. .maybe over 30 cents? (CRAP, I'M DYING, WHO CAN HOLD THEIR BREATH THAT LONG!!) oh wait, I forgot to pick up the dry cleaning. . . I hope they got that stain out. Wine, I'm out of wine, maybe Jacob's liquor has a sale this week like I think they said was coming. (EXCUSE ME, I FARTED) Erin skinned her knee. . . damn, I forgot band-aids on my list. (9, 10, 11. .THAT'S TOO LONG) . Hopefully Janice will let her skip P.E. class today, she needs to study for the S.A.T. next month. . Did Amazon deliver that book? (1...2...3...4...) Cable bill is almost past due. . . I hope I can get out of Jury duty. . . (FUK. . . I'M NEVER GOING TO FALL ASLEEP). . . Maybe I will take a Benadryl a half hour before bedtime tomorrow night. . . with Wine :)
This feel like smoking
This doesn't work for me Makes it worse
Why the awful music??
Such wrong instruction! You cant just hold breath for 7 seconds, hello? Did you even watch instruction video of Dr. Weil - the person who has conceived the method? "What is the 4 7 8 breathing technique? Close your lips and inhale through your nose for a count of four. Hold your breath for a count of seven. Exhale completely through your mouth making a whoosh sound for a count of eight. This completes one cycle"
