You may think that breathing is just a natural and automatic process that keeps you alive.
But did you know that you can actually improve your health and well-being by changing the way you breathe?
Breathing is linked to many vital functions in your body, and by breathing differently, you can influence those functions.
Your breathing also affects the chemicals in your brain, which is why breathing can change how you feel and think.
Modern research in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can help jump-start athletic performance, rejuvenate internal organs, halt snoring, allergies, asthma, and some autoimmune disease, and even straighten spines.
None of this should be possible, and yet it is.
Breathwork therapy is a form of healing that uses breathing techniques to help you cope with physical, mental, and emotional challenges during your recovery from addiction.

The synapsis happening along our neurological pathways is how messages are sent and received in our brain. Neurological pathways in our brain are established through our thoughts and our thoughts are based on our belief systems. Negative thought patterns create erroneous neural pathways which keep you in a cycle of negative thoughts and those thoughts govern how you feel, pain sensations in the body and emotional reactions.

Kapalabhati = “shining the skull”, is a cleansing technique for the central pranic channel, the Sushumna Nadi. The essence of this one is a series of quick, forceful exhalations through your nose, alternating with normal, automatic inhalations. It’s best done sitting, not lying down.
Breath, by journalist James Nestor.
The tome explores the million-year-long history of how the human species has lost the ability to breathe properly and why we’re suffering from a laundry list of maladies—snoring, sleep apnea, asthma, autoimmune disease, allergies—because of it.
