6 benefits of breathwork
PROMOTE DEEP RELAXATION
Your breath is a physical reflection of your mental state. This slow, rhythmic breath stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, which reduces the heart rate and relaxes the muscles and mind.
DECREASE HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE
Diaphragmatic breathing expands the lungs, increasing efficiency in oxygen absorption, lowering cortisol levels and blood pressure.
FOCUS ON THE NOW
Breathing exercises can aid in slowing down and being mindful, allowing you to reconnect with the ‘now’.
IMPROVE ALERTNESS, FOCUS AND MEMORY
Breathwork improves oxygen capacity in the blood which improves energy level.
BOOST MOOD
Your breath is a physical reflection of your mental state. Change your breath, change your mood.
DIGESTIVE SUPPORT
Breathing properly increases blood flow, helping the digestive organs work more efficiently: speeds up the metabolism and helps stabilize blood sugar levels.
