Research has found that this form of movement is especially beneficial for women’s hormone balance.
While cyclic hyperventilation increases stress in the short term, repeated training allows you to practice staying calm while feeling agitated and leads to a higher stress threshold. This causes the release of adrenaline in the brain and body and thus increases alertness and our capacity for focus.
