What is mindful breathing ?

"Mind controls the body, but breath controls the mind." - BKS Iyengar

We take about 22,000 breaths in a day but most of them go unnoticed. If we take a few of them mindfully or consciously we can alter how we feel and regulate our emotions. Mindful breathing is simply paying attention to the incoming and outgoing breath, following a certain rhythm. It can be practiced anytime and anywhere without any special tools. Sounds simple but it is immensely powerful, just a few minutes of mindful breathing can instantly make you more present in the moment.


Some of the benefits of mindful breathing are

Improved emotional stability
Less anxiety
Better focus
Calm and relaxed state of mind
Better energy levels
Relieve stress
Better Sleep and helps insomnia
Improved digestion

What does breath break offer?

Breath break app helps you practice mindful breathing. This app is made by collaboration of scientists and yoga experts. It presents well researched breathing practices such as Infinity breathing, box breathing, 4-7-8 breathing and more.


Why does mindful breathing work ?


Ancient Science
Mindful breathing or conscious breathing is not new to the world. It has been practiced for years in many cultures .Dantian breathing is practiced in the Chinese and Buddhist traditions. Pranayama - an ancient indian practice of breath control is a very important aspect of yoga.

Prana is the vital life force or molecular energy, also known as Qi in chinese. When we are unwell or feeling sad we have too little prana in the body. According to ancient texts on yoga, Pranayama = (prana (energy) + yama(control)). When we practice breath control we allow prana to flow freely and expand, resulting in improved body function and mental health.


Modern Science
Have you ever noticed your breathing pattern when you are stressed or anxious? It is shallow and irregular. On the other hand, if you are happy and relaxed, breathing is regular and slow. If we do the reverse which is changing the rhythm of our breath, we can change our emotions.

How does this work?

When we are stressed or our body senses danger and “fight and flight” response kicks in, causing our body to release stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. This also causes an increase in breathing rate, blood pressure and heart rate. When the body senses that it is out of danger or stress it gets back to its normal state using the “rest and digest” response.

When we experience chronic stress, our body constantly stays in “fight or flight” mode, causing health problems like high blood pressure, gut issues etc.

How does our body calm “flight or fight” response? Vagus nerve is an important part of the “rest and digest” nervous system. It connects the brain to many important organs in the body. Mindful breathing can stimulate the vagus nerve, which triggers a relaxation response in our body resulting in powerful health benefits.
