What (the TL:DR)
Your breathing patterns could be the reason for any fatigue, brain fog, or even pain you've been dealing with.
Why (the geeky neurology)
Your brain is fueled by two things:
- glucose (from the food you eat! nom nom)
- and oxygen
Simply put, if you're under breathing (i.e. short, shallow breaths)
or OVER BREATHING (this often becomes chronic with mouth-breathing)
then the chemistry of your blood isn't optimal for delivering those all-important oxygen molecules to that lovely cerebral matter 🧠 inside your beautiful skull 💀 {{ subscriber.first_name }}
And when your brain is under-fuelled it:
- can't function optimally -- so you feel sluggish physically, mentally, and emotionally
- feels threatened -- and thus puts your whole body in "sound the alarms!" mode that may feel to you bllaaaahhhhh
How (apply it to your life)
Breathe!
This ain't anything new. I know. I'm not blowing your mind.
But isn't it nice to have a reminder to:
INHALE through the nose ....slowly, deeply
and EXHALE through the nose ....slowly, fully.
And if you want to add feel-good movement to it, check out the new Gentle Breathe and Twist flow on Move With Adell.
(I also have a super cool online workshop that goes in-depth on the brain and the breath
But seriously...next time you're feeling fatigued, check your breathing!
Just keep breathing 🐟
