Humming
Humming is a simple yet powerful technique that can help regulate your nervous system. When you hum, you activate the vagus nerve, which is responsible for calming the body's stress and fight or flight response. By incorporating humming into your routine, you can reduce anxiety, lower blood pressure, and improve your overall sense of well-being.
To incorporate humming into your daily routine, set aside a few minutes each day to hum softly to yourself. You can do this while sitting comfortably or while going about your daily activities. You're going to want to inhale through your nose, slowly. As you exhale, start to softly and slowly hum. Focus on the sensations and vibrations in your body as you hum, allowing yourself to connect with the calming effects of this simple practice. Repeat as needed.
By making humming a regular part of your routine, you can enjoy the benefits of a regulated nervous system and improved emotional resilience.
