JAKARTA - Relaxing body condition and calm mind in the morning can help you have a good day. In addition to getting enough sleep, the body can relax and a calm mind in the morning can be obtained by doing breathing exercises.

Quoted from Today, on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, there is one breathing exercise that can be done easily in the morning. The breathing exercise can relieve the stress you feel, so that the body relaxes and the mind becomes very calm throughout the day.

"I can feel changes in my mindset and stress levels just by breathing training," said fitness instructor Stephanie Mansour.

Stepahine said that the breathing exercise can be done easily, even when it is still on the bed.

"This can be a routine in the morning, and can be done even before getting out of bed," he said.

For how to do these breathing exercises, here are some steps that can be tried.

1. Drink in bed with your knees bent or straight feet, choose which one makes you comfortable. Place your hands on your stomach, then inhale through your nose. 2. Then exhale through your nose, and feel your stomach expand and deflate. Repeat this step 5 times. 3. Next move your hand so that it is in the ribs. Breathe and feel your lungs expand, then exhale and feel the lungs thin.

In these breathing exercises, the pool of breath in which you focus on your stomach going up and down is an exercise that helps generate relaxation responses. This exercise trains your body and mind to feel safe and calm throughout the day.
