Buteyko Exercise 2a, breathe light-awareness

This is an an audio exercise in breath retraining through the Buteyko method. In this series of Breathe Light exercises the goal is to allow breathing to soften, to slow down and reduce breathing using thoughts and concentration.

The air hunger felt during these Buteyko exercises is to achieve a degree of air hunger just below the point where the brain reacts; to be on the verge of disrupting your breathing rhythm but not going beyond it. We are working to reduce the chemosensitivity of the body to the build-up of carbon dioxide

*do not practice for a strong air hunger or long duration of air hunger.

*in breath retraining, it is always helpful to contact a teacher for support.
