Can anyone remind me of the NCT breathing technique please?

I am 39 weeks with DC2 and would like to use the same breathing technique in labour as I did with DC1 4 years ago

It was covered in an NCT ante natal class but I'm not doing NCT classes this time. I seem to recall it was slowly breathing in for 5 then out for 5 or suchlike? It was only briefly mentioned and not a big deal but I just wish I could remember as it worked for me! (I remember the bit about pretending to blow out candles during crowning but I'm after the bit for contractions)
