As a woman in her mid 40's who has family history of Alzheimer's, I've been drawn to anything that may help balance my hormones, eliminate as much visceral fat as possible, build muscle, and decrease my risks for cognitive decline and Alzheimer's.
Key to life! Your breath provides the oxygen you need to keep the heart pumping and essential bodily organs functioning. Breathing supplies oxygen to the brain and body which is vital for energy production, cognitive function, and cellular health.
Controlled breathing activates the parasympathetic nervous system, reducing stress hormones like cortisol and promoting relaxation.
Breathwork enhances immune function by lowering stress and improving physiological resilience.
Cognitive function, emotional balance, and mind-body awareness are controlled here. Proper oxygenation through breath improves focus, memory, and mental clarity by fueling brain activity.
Your breathing impacts neurotransmitters like serotonin and GABA, which regulate mood and reduce anxiety.
Conscious breathing activates brain regions like the insula, enhancing body awareness and emotional regulation.
Physical Vitality: Deep breathing improves blood circulation, organ function, and muscle performance by optimizing oxygen delivery.
Resilience: Breathwork strengthens the diaphragm and core muscles, supporting overall physical stability and endurance.
Homeostasis: Breathing helps maintain blood pH balance, critical for physiological equilibrium.
Aligning breath, body, and brain creates a foundation for vitality and harmonizing the mind-body connection, reducing stress, and enhancing overall health.
