It’s something more people should learn. It helps with so many things.
I do a few different types and it really helps with my anxiety. Taking 15 minutes to concentrate on your breathing and relax is great.
As someone who deals with anxiety more than I’d like, the breathing techniques given to me have been a major help.
Teaching them to more people, specially younger people, is very much the right move
Breathing exercises are fine.
This specific company, “9d breathwork” reads as a complete pseudoscience scam. The website has claims like it will “Bypass your intellect to release pent up emotions”. The design reminds me of blockchain investor babble. it’s a “global breathwork revolution”. It also claims to use ‘binaural audio’ and ‘subliminal hypnotic therapy’ as well as boasting about being ‘432hz” which is a new age pseudoscience idea about earth having some magic healing frequency. It also seems to operate as something akin to an MLM where people pay them a fee to become “facilitators” and buy licenses and equipment from them and then sell that on to people in the form of their sham therapy
Has similar vibes to the dore program and brain gym (i distinctly remember once or twice doing exercises in school where they claimed that holding water in your mouth would mean it was absorbed directly into your brain and hydrate you better).
I wonder if it’s just an advertising push by offering it to schools or if someone is making money off this
Edit : Turns out they are selling it directly to schools. [https://9d.9dbreathwork.com/school-project](https://9d.9dbreathwork.com/school-project)
Funny how all there’s been all this focus on mental health and wellness for the last 15 odd years and the result is the most neurotic generation in history.
Take away their phones and the ‘issue’ will resolve itself fairly quickly.
Back in my day we had breath in and if you were lucky breath out – and that’s only if we had our daily ration of air and spam :p
Anyone with more than ten years left in them needs this to deal with the world as it’s evolving!
I’m very skeptical about things I think are a bit woo, but I used breathing to help focus and reduce stress during eye surgery; I was awake and couldn’t move or talk, so I did ‘in for 3, hold for 4, out for 5’ and it honestly worked to reduce my anxiety (probably in part because it gave me a focus)
One of the many reasons learning to play a musical instrument is good for you. Even ones you don’t blow can help control and regulate your breathing.
Singing, especially in a group, is also among one of the best things you can do for your mental health.
They should prescribe this on the NHS. Plenty of people could do with these simple techniques.
