Amazing Facts About Breathing
You can go for weeks without food, days without water, but only a few minutes without breathing. Breathing has such an immediate impact on your mind and body that even the act of inhaling vs. exhaling affects your nervous system differently. Its common to train in diet, exercise and even hydration, but almost no one trains their breath. This is huge missed opportunity for health seekers.
Do you know….
Breathing can change your blood PH (acid/alkaline) in minutes. No food, exercise or meditation acts as quickly.
You can often determine your dominant nervous system state simply by placing your finger underneath your nostrils and exhaling.
Reduced rate breathing can stimulate a Rest and digest, parasympathetic nervous system state to help with sleep, stress and anxiety.
Rapid, pulsed breathing stimulates a sympathetic nervous system response to increase energy, prepare for exercise, or boost the body’s natural defences.
Diaphragmatic breathing massages the Vegas Nerve and reduces heart rate, lowers blood pressure, and reduces stress.
Severe respiratory conditions like asthma can be successfully managed by increasing CO2 levels in the blood. 3
Breathing can help reduce the fear of public speaking, improve digestion, reduce insomnia, lower stress, anxiety and overwhelm.

The insight about Yoga Breathing
#1 Breathing Exercises are all about CO2 (not blood oxygen)
Breathing exercises are mostly about the manipulation of carbon di oxide in the blood, not oxygen. CO2 is not a toxin to be avoided. Its hugely valuable, and most people over-breathe, not under-breath, and we need to learn how to conserve CO2.
#2 Slow Breathing Increases Cellular Oxygen
Logically, you’d think that if you breath fast, you will get more oxygen, right? Not true. In fact, if you really breath fast for a few minutes, you’ll get dizzy and might even pass out. Slow breathing increases blood CO2 levels that allow for greater absorption of oxygen.
#3 Breathing Doesn’t Have to Be Complicated (at all!)
Every single breathing exercise is simply affecting your nervous system in one of three ways: parasympathetic, sympathetic or balancing responses. Complexity and terminology doesn’t add any value to the practices. Simple exercise work just as well and can be learned in minutes with no hard-to-pronounce Sanskrit names or complicated hand positions.
Requirements & Prerequisites:
Non smokers only
Some yoga experience is helpful, but not required

Breathing Vs. Meditation?
Meditation books, smartphone apps, and seminars are selling like crazy right now, but very few people actually practice because just the idea of 20 minutes in silence is enough to scare off even the most self-disciplined student.
And this is where the breathwork comes in.
In traditional Yoga, breathing has always been taught as a stepping-stone to meditation, and scientifically, the benefits are identical. Just like with meditation, you relieve stress, reduce your heart and respiratory rate, lengthen your telomeres, and potentially extend life.
No one talks about the downsides of meditation, but for new students, it can create anxiety, nervousness, frustration, and obsessive rumination. And the biggest problem? Most students don’t follow through, they quit! You’ve probably experienced this yourself.
Breathing is different. Its fun and easy to practice. The counting gives you a mental focus , and the practices are short and potent. Instead of dogging your daily breathing, my clients look forward to it.
With breathing practice, it puts you into a meditative state automatically. Think of breathing as an active form of meditation with all the same benefits. As a Yoga teacher, I can assure you that you will receive results, not meditation awards, so the more I teach breathing, the happier my students are with the results.
Consultation
Breathing is taken very seriously by the Wholistic homoeopath; therefore, fundamental breathing techniques are always taught during consultations, as well as targeted breathing techniques if required by the health issues presented. Patients experience immediate improvement when they combine homoeopathy with respiration exercises. It is life-altering.
It is life-changing for many patients to learn respiration for life and the breathe work courses, which are available separately.
