Breathe

“The Strong Formula program believes how we breathe matters - if you change your breath, you can change your life. ”

Breath is fundamental to human life. The way you breathe can impact your whole body, helping to regulate important functions such as heart rate and blood pressure. It can also reinforce proper body mechanics that put less stress on your body as you move. Breathing is an automatic function of the body that is controlled by the respiratory centre of the brain. When we feel stressed, our breathing rate and pattern changes as part of the ‘fight-or-flight response’.

As humans we have the power to deliberately change our own breathing. The Strong Formula program believes that controlling your breath can help to manage stress and stress-related conditions.
