4. Back to Back Breathing

Sit back to back with your partner in a cross-legged position and backs resting against each other. Take a few deep breaths and start sensing your partner’s breath for a few seconds. Now close your eyes and observe how your breathing slowly syncs with your partner’s. Stay like this for 2–3 mins.
