Proper breathing:
is the quickest way to calm the mind & body
minimizes the effects of Covid/Delta
manages the inflammation caused by cortisol
an increase longevity
and so many more health benefits
Humans having lost the ability to breathe properly is why we’re suffering from a laundry list of maladies—snoring, sleep apnea, asthma, autoimmune disease, allergies, to name a few. According to research, the ways in which we take in that air and exhale it is as important as what we eat, how much we exercise, or whatever genes we’ve inherited. Sounds crazy, right? But this is exactly what neurologists, rhinologists, and pulmonologists working at some of the most prestigious research institutions are finding. Honing these skills can help us live longer and healthier lives.
