Ep. 16 Crocodile Breathing - Breathing to Help Ease Back Tension

The Breathwork Club

Show Notes

Our breathing is a 3 dimensional process, with the capacity to expand in all directions. Many tend to breathe mainly into the front of our bodies, but we also have the ability to breathe into our sides and back as well. This episode focuses on a technique called crocodile breathing which can help us find a bit more space for our breath in our backs. For modern humans, are backs often tend to be a little tight and tense. Breathing into our backs can be a really lovely way to let some of that tension go

This episode is a rerecording of episode number 47. It recently came to my attention that the audio quality in some of the previous episodes is not great. I record and edit all the episodes of this podcast myself, while trying to juggle a busy professional and family life. I didn't do as good a job of this as I could have at times. The audio quality here should be a bit better, and I do apologize to anyone who has listened to an episode with poor quality in the past.
