Breathe Away Anxiety: New Study Confirms Breathwork’s Power in Treating Anxiety Disorders. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9954474/

Breathing and Brain Activity are Deeply Connected and Actually Influence Each Other.Temporal Relations between Cortical Network Oscillations and Breathing Frequency during REM Sleep. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8211551/

Short‑term stress is adaptive . It can enhance immune function, mental/physical performance and resilience, whereas chronic stress is maladaptive, suppressing systems and degrading performance. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5964013/

Breathing Modulates Network Activity in Frontal Brain Regions during Anxiety. Research reveals how anxiety alters breathing patterns and how these changes influence brain activity, offering new possibilities for targeted, breath-based interventions. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11714350/

Psychosocial Stress during First Pregnancy Predicts Infant illness. Maternal prenatal stress is associated with increased maternal reporting of infant illness, as well as increased frequency of both urgent care visits and emergency department visits.

The impact of mouth breathing on dentofacial development. Mouth breathing alters facial structure, disrupts saliva’s protective roles, increases dental and gum disease risk, affects jaw joint development, and may contribute to broader oral health problems. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC9498581/#s5

Intentional breathing strategies could help runners overcome breathlessness, boost performance, and rediscover the joy of running. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8967998/#sec20

Breathing refines the patterns of nerve activity, making your autonomic nervous system more coordinated and adaptive rather than just more or less active. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3882935/
