In 10 weeks of coherent breathing twice a day for 20-30 minutes my daily severe at times asthma of over 50+ years is almost completely gone, I’m eating dairy again and even while it’s raining cold and damp my breathing is better than ever. I’m almost completely off of medication that I’ve been on daily for most of my life and I have tried EVERYTHING for 2 decades to heal. I’m sleeping soundly 8 hours a night for the first time in years without the need for supplements to help me sleep, my ptsd and anxiety are gone. I’m managing stress better than ever before and even managed to feel stable and capable through the death of my father and dog in the same week on top of having recently moved my mom to a dementia facility, and running a home business with a family on a small farm. I have never felt more stable, at peace and well in my life! And this is only after 10 weeks!!!

This is a game changer if you follow along for the full hour or even a couple hours while going through your life. When the last time you were ever truly relaxed was as a pre-traumatized kid it’s easy to not realize your body is in survival mode. Also if you do it for long periods take a break every hour to avoid becoming lightheaded from too much oxygen and too little CO2. If this happens holding your breath until you feel a strong need to breathe is a quick fix.

[@Anione111]

You should specify ...hold your breath on exhale....

[@janeeyre1990]

I have unmedicated ADHD, which is so much more than an inability to pay attention. I was born with lessions on my prefrontal cortex, an overabundance of dopamine transporters, and either a dopamine deficit or oddly shaped dopamine (the research hasn't reached a consensus yet). Dopamine regulates cognitive activity in the brain, and the PFC regulates the activity of the entire body through impulse control. My neurodivergent brain led to an imbalanced body, with related dyspraxia / developmental coordination disorder and generalized joint hypermobility leading to chronic pain. The physiology of ADHD is a hyperfixation of mine, and I recently learned about heart rate variability biofeedback (HRVB) as an easy way to balance the cardiopulmonary system and, by extension, the brain. I woke up in pain today, but doing this for just six cycles over one minute helped my body relax. The pain is still there, but my nerves aren't so wound up.

My doctor actually reccomended me this one after Ive told her about my anxiety & depression. I started off with just 5 minutes to start my day. Even just that much made such a difference in my overall anxiety levels, ehich helped me be more productive, which helped alleviate my symptoms of depression. I feel the difference on one day I didnt do this routine in the morning, and my entire day was in a funk. So no matter what, i aim to fit this in somehow. Normally, i breathe and meditate on something. Today, i "breathed out" my anxiety. This is an amazing and affordable way to help cope with your every day stressors. (But please dont avoid real professional help if that is something that you need ❤)

I have a feeling it’s done purposely like that so you don’t force the breaths. I’ve noticed when I don’t force the breaths I get better results. Like approximately 80% of full inhale and exhale. Not saying you’re doing it wrong as I have no idea - just an observation 😊

[@djbb7079]

This makes me feel sick and short of breath, my body wants to naturally inhale much longer then exhale quicker.

[@traceystirling6008]

It sounds like you have a tendency to hyperventilate as a longer inhale with shorter exhalation will throw the O2 to CO2 balance off and is a form of hyperventilation but it may feel norm to you if this is the pattern your body has gotten used to. There’s been a lot of studies done on coherent breathing and it was found to be the most beneficial form of breathwork as all physiologically processes that can be measured are optimized at this rate but if it’s very different than your norm than it may feel uncomfortable at first. The most important thing is that you relax and breathe gently and lightly and try to avoid taking in big deep breaths but instead work on softening and slowing your inhale which will allow your exhale to soften and lengthen. Do not push yourself to inhale more or exhale beyond what’s comfortable if you haven’t reached the chime, just pause till you hear the chime and resume it will get easier as you relax and practice daily and only do 10 minutes to start if it’s hard for you to relax. Overtime you can gradually extend the time and just 20 minutes a day can have profound effects but if you have anxiety then doing it twice a day is even better once it feels comfortable for you. On the Breathing Zone App you can set the chimes for whatever rate is comfortable for you and then gradually slow it down as it becomes easier,
