EPISODE 2: AN APPOINTMENT WITH YOURSELF

“An Appointment with Yourself” is the second class in a five part series on the Breath hosted by Pernilla Burke and Abdi Assadi.

In this class we discuss  the importance of proper breathing techniques for mindfulness and emotional regulation.  We provide practical tools to increase awareness and create moments of pause in daily life. The class emphasizes that many people breathe shallowly from the upper lungs due to chronic anxiety. Abdi explains that shallow thoracic breathing suppresses emotions and disconnects us from our bodies. They advocate for "belly breathing," where the lower lobes of the lungs are filled, increasing oxygen intake and helping release repressed emotions. The class aims to help listeners re-train their breathing patterns, highlighting the physiological and emotional benefits of mindful breathing. Pernilla and Abdi's insights encourage incorporating these techniques into daily routines for improved well-being and conscious living.
