To get in the zone, focus on your breathing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Breathe in through your nose for four seconds<\/li>\n<li>Hold your breath for seven seconds<\/li>\n<li>Exhale through your mouth for eight seconds<\/li>\n<li>Repeat this cycle four times and then breathe normally<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>While doing this exercise, make sure you\u2019re in a quiet space, and closing your eyes makes a huge difference. Shift all your focus on your lungs, feel it getting filled up with air and feel how your stomach loosens up and you exhale. Putting one hand on your chest helps too.<\/p>\n<h3>3.

You could switch to another food or snack as long as it has an interesting texture, smell, and taste (works best that way). So go on and grab your object of interest (or disinterest even) and pretend you\u2019ve never seen it before.<\/p>\n<p>Unplug everything else and focus on how this food looks, take your time to examine the texture, size, and colour(s). Then think about how it feels when you&#8217;re holding it and brushing it with your fingers, how your skin responds to its touch. Slowly bring it close to your nose and smell it (unless you\u2019re holding a durian then you can smell it from a mile away!) Finally, taste the food and focus on how your body reacts to it.
