139 – A Deep Breath Doesn’t Calm Me Down!  2 Reasons Why Your Nervous System Isn’t Responding to Breathwork as You Know It


Listen Later

We know the scene – everyone’s driving you crazy, you’re trying your best not to lose it, so you pause and take a deep breath.

 

But what if that deep breath doesn’t seem to make much of a difference?  What if you’re still aggravated, annoyed, frustrated, and upset - and you wonder if breathwork just doesn’t work for you.

 

In today’s episode, Michelle coaches on how certain types of breathing can actually activate our sypathetic nervous system – the part of our body that amps up for the action of fight or flight.  When we activate our sympathetic nervous system with breath, it can actually make all our big feelings even bigger.

 

Listen in as Michelle teaches about the mistakes you might be making when you use breath to regulate your nervous system, and what to do instead so that breathwork can be a powerful tool to help calm your body when you need it.
