Head First
Everything we do starts in our head. It works like a sophisticated switchboard. In the busy run-up to Christmas, when the stress tends to mount, things can get to you. That's when you need to apply your inner "switch-off" button and give your head a break. Take some deep breaths. Deep breathing calms our sympathetic nervous system and enhances a calm state.
For guided breathing techniques check out the newly launched Swiss-made Earkick app, available in the App Store: https://earkick.com/.

Mit dem Kopf voran
Alles beginnt im Kopf, auch der Stress. Dein Kopf ist vergleichbar mit einer Schalterzentrale. In der oft hektischen Vorweihnachtszeit kann er schnell mal stressbedingt überhitzen. Dem wirkst du am besten entgegen, indem du deinen inneren "Aus"-Schalter bedienst und so den Kopf freimachst. Tiefes Ein- und Ausatmen wirkt beruhigend auf unser sympathisches Nervensystem und fördert den Zustand der inneren Ruhe.
Für angeleitete Atemtechniken empfehlen wir euch die neu entwickelte App Earkick aus Schweizer Hand, erhältlich im App -Store https://earkick.com/
