Main benefits:

Breathing is influenced by all our thoughts and emotions. Restricting breathing is one of our defense mechanisms against negative external influences; it is the body's protective reaction to inner imbalance. With shallow breathing, we limit interaction with the external world and retreat into a confined inner world we have created for ourselves.

Feedback
“Hearing on a podcast about the breathing practice that had supported Elina spoke to me immediately, and I knew that once I moved to Estonia I wanted to experience it. Having tried different methods for a decade, the nature of breathing and its effect made sense to me.
At Hingamiskeskus I was met with a warm welcome, familiar floating, a cosy atmosphere with dedicated instructors, and inspiring journeys. I was drawn to the variety of the journeys and to the way the fight-or-flight state can dissolve, and I went there throughout my pregnancy. Who knows, perhaps my baby is such a good sleeper thanks to practising conscious breathing!
For me it has brought peace of mind, reminded me again of the importance of living in the moment, strengthened my tolerance of stress, and through insights and memories given me the ability to understand myself better, and so to be the best version of myself for those close to me. In today’s fast and self-critical world that is certainly welcome, and I recommend it to everyone!”

How does breathing affect your well-being?
Every day, we take over 20,000 breaths, adding up to more than 7 million breaths per year. Research has shown that most adults use only 10 to 20% of their full breathing capacity. That is why it is essential to be aware of how we breathe daily and to recognize the value of each breath.
Since breathing has such a profound impact on both the body and mind, Rebirthing Breathwork (also known as Conscious Breathing or Connected Breathing) has gained increasing popularity worldwide. These techniques utilize continuous, uninterrupted breathing, relaxation, and focused awareness on the breath.
The goal of breathwork is to release physical and mental tension through conscious, connected breathing and to awaken life energy while also cleansing the body.
By speeding up or slowing down the breath, we activate both sympathetic and parasympathetic responses. Controlling the breath allows us to influence the brain and autonomic nervous system at will, literally shifting our state of consciousness. By altering our breathing rhythm, we can affect how information flows to the brain. The frequency, speed, and depth of our inhalations directly impact the brain's function and activity.
Breathwork involves continuous, uninterrupted breathing, where the inhale is conscious, intentional, and deep, while the exhale is relaxed and effortless, without active control. This technique is also called connected breathing, as there are no long pauses between the inhale and exhale, connecting them into a seamless flow. Such a breathing method allows us to identify and transform limiting thoughts and past painful experiences that unconsciously influence our current behavior and mindset. By recognizing the thought patterns that hold us back, we can release them and replace them with supportive, empowering beliefs.
The openness and ease of your breath reflect the lightness of your life. Through breath, we can shift patterns that restrict our breathing and embrace a life of greater flow and ease.
