Research
Have you ever noticed your breath quickening when you are afraid? Do you find yourself breathing slowly when you are calm? That is not a coincidence.
Research reveals that each emotion correlates with distinct rhythms of breathing. Therefore, if we alter how we breathe, we change how we feel. For instance, when we feel happy, our breathing will be slow and deep. On the other hand, if we feel anxious, our breathing will be short and shallow, or if we feel angry, our breathing will be fast. This means that certain breathing strategies work as a tool to help us to manage our thoughts, moods, and experiences. So, let’s reset, regulate, and heal our nervous system.
