Talk:Motivation and emotion/Book/2024/Breathing exercises and relaxation

Comment

Hi there,

I'm very eager to see what information you put together for this topic. I feel like our two topics are very closely related - Mine is Guided Meditation and Emotion Regulation.

It's very early on in the semester so I don't expect you to have thought of all points you are going to make in your chapter, however some food for thought - How might breathing exercises help with pain management?

Best of luck this semester! SMurray24 (discuss • contribs) 08:19, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Initial suggestions

@MGibb.23: Thanks for tackling this topic. Some initial suggestions:

• Check out other related chapters and see how you can build on, link to, and integrate with that work:
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Stress
  • Category:Motivation and emotion/Book/Relaxation
• Also search past book chapters for related topics
• For the topic development, consider:
  • What psychological theory(ies) can help to understand and explain this topic? Broadly speaking, physiological theory/theories make sense. But perhaps also consider e.g., cognitive perspectives?
  • What is the main research in this area?
• Let me know if I can do anything else to support the development of this chapter.
