 Coping: Remember to Breathe

Beth Parker-O’Brien, LCSW-C, MPH, leads us through a simple, short relaxation technique of breathing. Beth’s favorite phrase is “Breathing is a Good Thing!” When we are anxious, scared, depressed or overwhelmed, we overlook taking care of ourselves. Join Beth in this practice of slow breathing.
