The Shift: Rediscovering the Power of Breath
Introducing The Shift
In the midst of our daily distractions, we often overlook the power of our breath. With approximately 23,000 breaths taken each day, many of them shallow, we may unknowingly hinder our ability to think and feel our best.
But what if we could pause, focus on our breath, and slow down our exhalation to create a sense of calm and consistency in our thoughts and emotions?
Introducing The Shift. It's a simple tool designed to help you slow down your exhale. Whether you need an anchor during turbulent moments or seek greater presence in the present, The Shift is here to assist you.
When we breathe better, we think better. Breathing is an automatic process, often taken for granted. Without conscious attention, we tend to breathe shallowly, triggering our nervous system into fight-or-flight mode. However, when we calm our exhale and put an end to shallow breathing, we can reduce anxiety, alleviate stress, improve sleep, enhance focus, and so much more.
The Shift empowers you to swiftly and effortlessly counter anxiety by slowing down your breath. It's a functional and elegant piece of jewelry, worn close to your heart, serving as both a tool and a gentle reminder to prioritize your well-being.
The Science Behind The Shift
But you might wonder, is the science behind a slower exhale grounded in reality? We understand if you approach this concept skeptically, as its simplicity can seem too good to be true. Rest assured, The Shift has been meticulously designed, tested, and patented by a psychotherapist who used established data on how breathing impacts the mind.
Think of your inhalations as the gas pedal and your exhalations as the brakes. Stress triggers short inhalations that put you in "fight or flight" mode. With 50,000 thoughts and 150 phone notifications bombarding us daily, we often find ourselves trapped in this state, feeling exhausted and tense. By lengthening your exhalations, you can immediately reverse this state within two minutes, lowering cortisol (the stress hormone), blood pressure, and heart rate.
The founders of The Shift harnessed this proven science to craft a tool that allows you to access these extended exhalations more frequently, transforming better breathing into a habitual practice.
Using The Shift is as easy as 1-2-3:
- Inhale deeply through your nose, allowing your breath to fill your lungs.
- Exhale gently through The Shift, lengthening your exhalation.
- Relax your jaw and shoulders as you release the breath.
