CONSCIOUS BREATHING
Conscious Breathing, also known as Controlled Breathing stands on ancient foundations. Centuries of wisdom inform us to pay closer attention to our breathing, but because of the basic nature of breathing it is often overlooked. Conscious Breathing calms the part of the brain called the "breathing peacemaker" which can be adjusted by altering the breathing rhythm, in turn influencing our emotional state. Slowing your breathing increases "baroneflex sensitivity", which regulates blood pressure by way of the heart. Conscious Breathing techniques not only influence the brain region associated with emotion, but are also linked to our memory. It also activates the parasympathetic nervous system improving the immune system and immediately reducing stress and anxiety.
