I went to my appointment this morning for my psychologist appointment and it went well I learned some breathing techniques which i will gladly tell you how I do them.

The first one I was sitting on the couch, and I closed my eyes and breathed in and out she told me the 4th time to think of a balloon when I was inhaling the balloon would blow up, and when I exhaled the balloon would blow out. I told her when she asked what the balloon looked like I said it was red and it was medium size almost popped but not yet. Then she told me to think of a flower and when I exhale i blow the petals off and I said it was a sunflower yellow and the petals were half off.

Exercise instructions
