More and more people are discovering the breath for a more relaxed, healthier and more conscious living but also for healing, transformation and personal development.

Respiration
Frequently asked questions
Some common abnormal breathing patterns include:
- shallow breathing
- rapid breathing
- ratio of inhalation to exhalation
- limited mobility
- poor posture
- dysfunction of the respiratory muscles
- ...
When you unconsciously and shallowly breathe, neglecting to engage your belly, it often results in noisy breathing. You may also experience moments of "air hunger," a sensation that you are not taking deep enough breaths.
80% of the population only utilizes 30% of their lung capacity, indicating a prevalence of incorrect breathing practices. Understanding the concept of incorrect breathing is crucial in order to prevent its occurrence. Tension, anxiety, fatigue, and excessive exertion often contribute to an irregular breathing pattern.
As a result, our bodies produce higher levels of stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Some individuals may experience symptoms such as shortness of breath, dizziness, tingling in the limbs, fainting, and even chest pain as a result of these hormones.
How can you recognize improper breathing? Look out for the following signs:
- Regularly breathing through your mouth
- Frequent sighing or yawning
- Occasional dizziness or lightheadedness
- Holding your breath or irregular breathing
- Shallow breathing (not from the abdomen)
- Breathing too frequently and rapidly
- Producing loud noises while breathing
- Experiencing periods of air hunger
Absolutely not, our breathing therapy aims to empower you with the ability to take control of your breathing and effectively manage stressful situations. We provide you with the necessary tools to continue practicing and improving your breathing at home as well. Don't hesitate to embark on this transformative journey!
One in ten people experience faulty breathing, which is often influenced by external factors. These factors include exertion, speaking habits, weather/climate conditions, and the composition of inhaled air (such as pollen, house dust mites, and exhaust fumes).
During periods of stress or tension, shallow breathing is frequently observed. While shallow breathing may not have immediate severe consequences, prolonged shallow breathing can contribute to functional disorders such as cardiac arrhythmias and digestive problems.
