Deep breathing exercises are powerful tools for relaxation, anxiety reduction and improved mental health. The practice of deep breathing involves intentional and mindful control of your breath, activating the body's relaxation response. Here's a simple deep breathing exercise that you can try for relaxation:

• Hold your breath for a short moment before exhaling slowly through your mouth or nose
• Continue the cycle of slow, deep inhalations for your desired timeframe
