The impetus of the Sound Breath Toolkit is a massive increase in general anxiety disorders taking place around the world. Most of this can be traced to the uncertainty from rapid change. The SBTK team has developed simple exercises to help strengthen the autonomic nervous system. These easy physical movements center around the breath, supported by sound and movement. 
 

Given that we’re all different, SBTK Exercises are designed for individual adaptability. Once you learn the exercises and understand the theories behind them, you can fold these practices into your daily routines,

i.e., relaxing, walking, exercising, falling asleep, and more. 
 
The focus of SBTK is the psychological effects of stress. To do this, we employ physiological movements that address vagal nerve tonification -> activate the parasympathetic nervous system -> help balance the sympathetic nervous system.
