When the afternoon slump hits, when focus has scattered, when your body feels heavy and your mind has gone dull - this is the practice to reach for. Breath of Fire is a dynamic breathing technique that works directly with your energy system, activating both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system to clear stagnation and spark aliveness from the inside out.

The technique is simple. Inhale through the nose, then top it up with a second inhale. Exhale all the way out through the mouth. That's it. But the effects are immediate and often surprising - a clarity, a lift, a sense of having woken something up that was only ever waiting to be called back.

Gracie guides you through this three-minute practice at a pace that is accessible whether this is your first time or a well-worn ritual. It works beautifully as a morning energiser or a midday reset - a way to arrive back in your body and your day without needing to go anywhere.

A note: if you feel dizzy at any point, return to your natural breath. Stay grounded or seated throughout and remain open to your own experience.
