When dealing with stress-induced IBS flares, I always introduce the physiological sigh first. It's incredibly intuitive and effective: a quick double inhale through the nose, followed by a long, slow exhale through the mouth. I tell my clients, "Imagine you're trying to clear your mind of worries, taking in all the peace you can then gently releasing all the tension." It's like a mini-reset button for your nervous system, easily done anywhere, anytime.
