We often will hold in those things that bother us throughout our day. Keeping emotions inside and not venting, nor releasing these stressors or irritants, can effect our health and our thoughts.
However, in Qigong, it is encouraged that we actually let out heavy sighs during our days, breathing in through your nose and out through your mouth and making a noise to go with it (moaning, grunting, soft sighs, etc. with whatever feels good and comfortable for you)
This release lets us "empty" our bodies of the emotional toxins we keep in and you are encouraged to do this 10 -15 times a day along your daily routine.
Give it a try and you will begin to see the difference in your body (less tension and possibly aches) and your mind will start to feel clearer as well. Another way of taking care of yourself with your own energy.
Happy Sighing!
