how can a few words calm your whole body? repeat one phrase slowly… and your heart changes its rhythm 🤍 in a study (bernardi et al., bmj 2001), people who repeated a short prayer in rhythm slowed their breathing from about 14 to almost exactly 6 breaths a minute, and their heart and blood-pressure rhythms grew stronger and moved in sync. at about 6 breaths a minute the heartbeat rises and falls with the breath the most (lehrer & gevirtz, 2014). try it tonight: breathe in… and on one long breath out, subhanallah. "unquestionably, by the remembrance of allah hearts are assured." (qur'an 13:28) send this to the friend who can't switch off at night. Hashtags #dhikr #islam #muslim #anxiety #islamicreminders
