What do we know about our breathing? Basically, that we have it. Breathing is unnoticeably present in our lives. We notice our breathing when we encounter difficulty in inhaling or exhaling, or with respiratory diseases. Breathing performs the main energy function in our body. The main metabolic processes with the environment are based on respiration. We receive oxygen through breathing and get rid of excess carbon dioxide when we exhale. And this exchange process accompanies us throughout our lives. In this fact one can see the importance of the respiratory process for our existence in the body. What can be changed in the mechanics of breathing is the volume of breathing and the quality of the inhalation and exhalation itself. You can breathe deeper than usual for a while, slow down, or speed up your breathing. This immediately affects the sensations in the body and well-being. You can observe your breathing, and this will give you a feeling of being present in the moment, since breathing occurs reflexively and is part of reality. However, there are some differences in the way humans and animals breathe. Animals breathe connectedly, that is, without a pause between inhalation and exhalation. People pause their breathing, holding their breath from time to time and then releasing it again. Since breathing is known to trigger energy mechanisms in the body, we can say that humans, unlike animals, regulate the flow of energy through the body through breathing. It is also known that in Yoga they are often used in breath-holding exercises. In body therapy they also offer to regulate the client’s breathing. Breathing methods based on the use of connected breathing (rebirthing, holotrope, vibration, free breathing, breathing-music-movement) use breathing to regulate energy flows in the body without a delay between inhalation and exhalation, as in animals. Such breathing unusually enhances the energy flow in the human body. This type of breathing naturally causes the phenomenon of hyperventilation. which causes changes in the dynamics of metabolism, and activates the excretory and cleansing systems of the body. With prolonged use of coherent breathing (for an hour), a significant change occurs in the well-being of the breather. These changes are caused by the processes of muscle relaxation and cleansing of the body itself. The restorative function of coherent breathing can also be considered. During hyperventilation, the level of carbon dioxide in the blood doubles and reaches nine percent, as in the blood of infants and yogis in meditation. Since these states are considered healing, it can be argued that the process of connected breathing is healing for the human body. In addition, in the processes of coherent breathing, the respiratory muscles are actively trained, which creates an additional resource and increases the stability of the respiratory system as a whole..
