Start your 14-day free trial of Othership Breathing App, available in the App Store and Google Play: Othership is your new mindfulness routine. Embark on a journey to regulate your nervous system — and your emotions — in a world that can’t be regulated. Today it’s extremely common, to never experience full-blown, life- threatening stress, but to never fully relax either. Our nervous system is stuck in an in-between state half-stimulated and our organs aren’t able to rest. Chronic stress creates communication problems for the nervous system This is a video exercise to teach you to consciously turn on heavy stress for short bursts, specifically so that we can turn it off and spend the rest of our days and nights relaxing and restoring. We’ll be giving our nervous system a full reset.

Some of the styles and holds are dangerous for mother and baby. - Check with your doctor before you start a breathwork practice, if you have a history of epilepsy or cardiovascular issues, including high blood pressure, or are currently taking antipsychotic medications. - Never perform breathwork while driving or in water. - Breathwork has the potential to bring about intense feelings. Because of the strong physical and emotional releases that may arise, it’s not recommended for everyone. Please talk to your doctor before practicing. - Additionally, some types of breathwork can induce hyperventilation, which can bring on dizziness, chest pain, and pounding heartbeat. - It is common for your body to undergo physiological changes while doing breathwork; body temperature fluctuation, numbness and tingling in your arms and legs, tightness in your hands. Do not worry, this will all return back to normal as your breath does.
