It's like setting the stage for relaxation to take center stage in your body and mind. By jumpstarting your breath, you initiate a cascade of physiological responses that signal your nervous system to ease into a state of calmness and tranquility and since your TMJ ( jaw joint) is wired to your fight flight response it's a necessary factor in helping your Jaw to let go of tension.
As you consciously engage with your breath, you activate the parasympathetic nervous system, also known as the rest-and-digest mode, promoting a sense of ease and relaxation throughout your entire being.
Proper diaphragm activation allows your ribs to move efficiently, improving breathing effectiveness, boosting energy levels, reducing spinal stress, and promoting better posture.
As tension dissipates, a beautiful sense of calm and relaxation envelops the body, positively impacting mental well-being by reducing stress and anxiety. It also supports spinal integrity, maintains alignment, reduces bodily strain, and enhances overall body awareness.
