Breathing To Create Psychological Shift Of Experience - Polyvagal Theory

Our breathing breath ratio can shift our physiological state from flight or fight to the relaxation response quickly. The way we breathe can also shift our psychological state from a negative bias to a positive one. Observe how you feel after performing this meditation. Can you see the World in a more positive light? To elicit the relaxation response the breath ratio must be 40 percent inhale to 60 percent exhale. This is the work of Stephen Porges and references PolyVagal Theory.

A 5 for Celia’s calm voice and loving intention, and the biomedical science based information mixed with breath. This method, meditation could be improved with a higher quality recording, but not a big deal.

Wow! So calming and peaceful! 🙏 I loved sending compassion to the limbs with the humming ❤️

Thank you! Very calming but also exhilarating ☺️🙏🏾💕

Amazing! I really enjoyed the humming… much to my surprise 🙏

Great exploration of the effects of breathing different ways!
