In the northern hemisphere, today is the spring equinox – the day where daylight and darkness are equal in length.
Here is an equal-ratio breathing practice that can be used to help create a sense of balance within.

The Practice
Settle into a comfortable seated position.
Bring your attention to your breath, tuning into the inhale and exhale.
Breathe in and out through your nose if it is comfortable to do so.
After a while, start to notice how long your inhale is.
When you are ready, start to match the length of your inhale and your exhale.
You might count as you breathe in, then breathe out for the same count.
Allow for and appreciate any space that naturally occurs between the end of the exhale, and the next inhale.
If necessary, adjust your breath length to ensure it is comfortable.
Continue for several breaths.
As you breathe, enjoy the feeling of the air coming in and out of your body.
Take a moment to notice any effects of the practice.
