In just 30 seconds, one doctor has revealed how to relieve stress.
Dr. Karan Rajan said there is one thing you should be concentrating on in a TikTok video.
“Every time you breathe in, your diaphragm moves down, making more room for your heart,” he explained. “It stretches, and the heart grows bigger, and blood moves more slowly through it.”
“As a result, the brain sends signals to the heart to accelerate.
“If you think about it, whenever you’re anxious or stressed, you subconsciously focus on your breathing in a certain way, or you’ll hyperventilate, which increases your heart rate.”
When you breathe out or exhale, the diaphragm rises, gently squeezing and shrinking the heart, allowing blood to flow more quickly through it.
“The brain sends signals to the heart to slow down as a reflex.”
“When you’re stressed, concentrаte more on exhаling slowly аnd deeply. He goes on to sаy thаt this “increаses vаgаl tone аnd slows the heаrt rаte.”
