It's something we do more than 22,000 times a day, and approximately 600 million times throughout our lifetime. It's a topic that we constantly hear about, and maybe even have said the words to ourselves: "just breathe".
Yet, despite the popularity of the topic, and regardless of how common the cultural conversation about it is, most of us breathe poorly and improperly. In fact, it is estimated that less than 30% of people breathe properly.
We live in a fast-paced, high-stress world, and this constant barrage of busyness, stimulation, and subsequent stress negatively affects our sleep, making us more anxious, and spiraling us down into an adrenal gland overload of chronic stress.
The science of breathing is getting more interesting by the year. The links between proper breathing, reducing stress, and reducing your risk of disease are profound.
How many times have you woken up still fatigued, even exhausted in the morning? Or felt overwhelmed? What about that weight gain you just can't seem to reverse, with your cortisol levels off the charts? Not to mention the inflammatory impact on your brain and heart.
Breathing affects ALL of this and more.
Wherever you are on your life's journey, everyone will benefit from learning how to breathe more, and breathe properly! It's one of the most critical things we can do to improve our health, and is one of the simplest, yet most powerful mind/body wellness tools we have at our disposal.
Breathing properly is a freely available solution to you, right now, wherever you are, which can immediately help you bring more calm to your nervous system, and begin to shift you from ill health, towards optimal health.
