Use Headspace for Breathwork
Dive into the world of relaxation and mindfulness within the Headspace app by exploring the wealth of breathing exercises. Specifically, under the Meditate section on the Explore page, you'll discover the dedicated section called "Guided Breathwork".
For beginners seeking to master fundamental techniques such as belly and nostril breathing, Headspace provides expert guidance led by meditation teacher Dora Kamau. This accessible instruction ensures that even those new to mindfulness can reap the benefits of controlled breathing.
