Deep Breathing-spiral of energy development

I have been under more work stress as corona leaves us short of staff but as they say 'When the going gets tough the tough get going'. I have noticed that for example when one starts up on a jogging routine that heart, lungs gets used to a different nreathig rate, deeper more full. This is similar with work. I am under more time pressure, no breaks, psychologically more stressed, alone and I still keep up my sport and emotional commiitments. So my body raises my game, helping me by giving me a 'second wind'. I breathe deep and constantly, using my whole lungs. Now I am less nervous, calm. I even woke up after 6 1/2 hours sleep still beathing deeply, fully rested. Yoga has increased lung capacity and deep stretches brings that cspacity of heart, lungs down deep into tissues. Only difficulty is feeling less intemtly on an energetic level. I think that will return. It comes in phases with my energy body. I feel more chi, prana, kundalini in my heart, etc intensely and this lasts several weeks at a certain level until my chakras overload. Several weeks ago I complained of head and heart pains here in a post. Then I let this energy flow elsewhere in my body, sexual chakra for example. Now I have just freaked out generally yesterday due to energy overload and overwork and am learning to come to a whole new level. I presume that, as I have noticed, this gives me a certain rational distance before I start filling up my energy body at a deeper level again towards those I love. It is interesting to note these step like stages of development forced on me by my body. I hope nobody feels distanced as I struggle with the adjustment. I find it fascinating how growth spurts are an evolutionary spiral. I hope I have someone who can maintain the pace with me and push me to higher acheivement through mutual energy exchange.

Benefits of deep breathng

1) Decreases stress, increases calm. When you become stressed or anxious, your brain releases cortisol, the “stress hormone.” By taking deep breaths, your heart rate slows, more oxygen enters our blood stream and ultimately communicates with the brain to relax. Deep breathing also ups your endorphins, the “feel good” chemical.

2) Relieves pain. As stated above, deep breathing triggers the release of endorphins, which not only helps create a feeling ing, but also combats pain.

3) Stimulates the lymphatic system (Detoxifies the body). Breathing releases carbon monoxide, which is important to fully release. Actually, breathing is in charge of 70% of cleansing the body of toxins (the other 30% is through bladder and bowels.) If you do not breathe fully, your body must work overtime to release these toxins.

4) Improves immunity. When your blood is fully oxygenated, it carries and absorbs nutrients and vitamins more efficiently. Essentially, the cleaner the blood, the harder it is for illnesses to stay put in your system.

5) Increases energy. The more oxygen that is in the blood, the better our body functions. It also improves our stamina.

6) Lowers blood pressure. As your muscles relax, this allows your blood vessels to dialate, which improves circulation and lowers blood pressure. Deep breathing also slows and regulates the heart rate, which also helps with lowering your BP.

7) Improves digestion. The more you breathe deep, the more healthier blood flow you will produce, which in turn promotes your organs to function more effectively, including your intestines.

8) Helps support correct posture. Next time you breathe in, notice that you simultaneously lengthen and straighten your spine. In order to take a deep breath in, your lungs take up maximum space, your diaphragm pulls down, so in turn your torso straightens in order for this to be possible
