Breath (engl.)
Learn to breathe properly with our wide range of coaching, courses and these 3 simple exercises.
In our fast-paced world, our breath is taken for granted. Due to stress, we breathe quickly, shallowly and unconsciously. The result: our body is supplied with less oxygen. We therefore have less energy in everyday life and are less able to cope with life’s challenges. The solution: Breathwork. Because with this effective technique we can consciously control our breathing pattern and improve our outlook to life.
What is Breathwork?
Breathwork is a technique in which we breathe deeply into our belly in order to consciously supply our body with more oxygen. Deep and correct breathing is important. It gives us fresh oxygen, which provides our organs with nutrients so they can function well.
If we also focus on our breathing, we create distance from the often negative spiral of thoughts. You become more mindful and your thoughts of the past and worries and fears of the future slowly fade away. This creates a state of relaxation and you become visibly calmer.
Correct breathing: inner and outer breathing difference
Breathing is vital for us humans because it supplies us with oxygen. However, since our body cannot store this oxygen, we have to breathe in and out constantly. If we take in oxygen from the air, this is called external respiration. It is then transported to all the cells of the body. This is called internal breathing.
But how do you breathe correctly? The best way is to breathe slowly, evenly and deeply into your abdomen. This activates the parasympathetic nervous system, which is responsible for the feeling of relaxation in our bodies.
Breathing: effects and benefits Breathwork
Because the body receives continuous oxygen during Breathwork, the cells can breathe better and have more energy. You feel more alive, lighter and balanced.
Other benefits of Breathwork are:
- relief from stress, anxiety and pain
- more energy in everyday life and at work
- more happiness and contentment
- improved lung capacity
- control of thoughts, emotions
- more relaxation
- mental clarity
- improved concentration

- dissolution of mental and emotional blockades
- increased creativity
Is Breathwork dangerous?
The breathing techniques we present here, as well as those used by our Breathwork experts and coaches, are safe to practice without any danger.
However, some breathing techniques are controversial. Holotropic breathing involves inhaling and exhaling very quickly, which causes the carbon dioxide level in the blood to drop and the vessels to constrict. This leads to an undersupply of oxygen. Such a breathing technique is not advisable for pregnant women! This breathing technique should only be done under the supervision of an experienced expert or therapist.
