    Slowing down to about 6 breaths per minute creates a resonant frequency where your cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems all synchronize in the most beneficial way. It is like having a built-in reset button that you can use anytime to shift your entire physiology toward a calmer, more restorative state.

    ”
