In this episode, I talk about the most common mistakes people make in breathwork, specifically focusing on the dangerous habit of chasing the high. I share my experience and knowledge on how practicing breathwork solely to achieve this intense state can actually be detrimental to your health in the long run. I explain how hyperventilation and intense breathing can be a shortcut to experiencing a mind-blowing sensation, but it can dysregulate your breathing, weaken your resilience to stress, and cause negative effects. Instead, I suggest seeking out calmer, more subtle breathing practices that allow you to get deeper into your body and reach even more profound states.
Join me in this episode to learn about the downsides of chasing the high and discover other ways to achieve strong and intense breathwork experiences.
