Summary
Breathing techniques are a type of therapy used to help you to learn the correct way to breathe its usually made up of some specific breathing instruction and is normally accompanied with various exercises. Learning the natural "Diaphragmatic Breathing Technique" is the key to proper breathing. You may wonder why anyone would want to improve their breathing technique as we all breathe every day so, what could there be to learn? Here are a few important key points of this book: Did you know that 90% of all people breathe shallowly and do not intake enough oxygen to support proper brain function? Shallow breathing through the chest means you are disrupting the balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide necessary to be in a relaxed state. Our brain (the human body's biggest oxygen guzzler), is supplied and nourished with oxygen and a brain with plenty of oxygen can operate and control the physiological functions of the body more efficiently. Healthy people make 93 per cent of their energy aerobically ("in the presence of oxygen,") but poor breathing habits can reduce the amount of energy made aerobically to 84 per cent. If you breathe in too much oxygen and not enough carbon dioxide it can create an agitated state, or that too much carbon dioxide and not enough oxygen, can create feelings of fatigue and depression. In extreme cases, a restricted supply of oxygen can contribute to anxiety, panic attacks, and even phobias. If carbon dioxide is released too rapidly, the arteries and blood vessels constrict and an insufficient supply of oxygen to the cells results, including blood (and oxygen) supply to the brain. Breathing (both exhaling and inhaling) correctly is critical in maintaining the appropriate level of oxygen for energy, keeping the correct pH levels in our body, and maintaining the correct carbon dioxide level for bodily functions.
