yesterday evening I got introduced to breathwork in class. now I really understand the struggle with trauma sitting in your body. and how our society is almost constantly in the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight mode instead of rest and digest mode). I now believe that breathwork is a key part of healing and its very underrated in medicine. you will only regenerate, if you give your body the signals to be in rest mode. breathwork is one way to do that mindfully. so powerful and easy. 💚

There are so many ways... Starting for example with "box breathing" can be very powerful, to calm the nervous system.

To align and synchronize brain- and heart frequency you can start also by breathing while counting on 4 inhaling and exhaling on 4. Or when going deeper, you count on 4 inhaling, holding the breath counting on 4, exhaling counting on 4 and holding again breath counting on 4. You do this for as long as it feels good and you feel how you calm down, realign, centering, grounding...

There are so many breath masters out there. I went quite deep into breath work with different trainings. One of them was SOMA by Niraj Naik
