Science behind Breathwork
Breathwork helps release stress by activating the body’s relaxation response. Deep, slow breathing triggers the parasympathetic nervous system, counteracting the "fight or flight" stress response and promoting calm. It lowers cortisol levels, the stress hormone, and improves focus by bringing attention to the present moment. Additionally, breathwork releases physical tension in the body, helping to relax muscles and ease discomfort. By practicing breathwork regularly, you can reduce stress and enhance your ability to cope with challenging situations.
