In this video Patrick McKeown will share Buteyko Breathing Exercises and how you breathe when you are stressed. He will also explore the difference between fast breathing and slow breathing.
When you are stressed do you breathe more or do you breathe less? Generally we start breathing more. We breathe faster, we breathe more noticeably, we breathe through the mouth.
Breathing during stress is:
- Faster
- Sigh more (irregular)
- Oral breathing
- Noticeable breathing
- Upper chest breathing
Breathing to evoke relaxation:
- Slow down
- Regular
- Nose breathing
