Welcome to Your Core Challenge Series

I really can’t stress this enough! Every person can benefit MASSIVELY from gaining better breath awareness. We do it all day everyday without even having to think about it. But many people are unaware of the HOW to breath well. Often you might just be told to ‘take a deeper/longer breath’. However, people can be stuck in chronic tightness that makes it difficult to access bigger breaths.
Too often we hold excess tension in our torso and core to create ‘stability’ or look better by sucking in our guts. If we hold this excess tension and tightening it makes it difficult to breathe well.

Do you feel anxious and nervous often? Breathing better can help you. I’ve got a few exercises peppered in the various days to help you access better breath. 

Let’s take a look at what breathing better means in every day life. 
Decrease stress
Relax your mind and body
Help you sleep better
Improve focus
Breathing well activates the parasympathetic nervous system of  ‘rest and digest’. This also helps with digestive issues as deep breathing massages your internal organs and more. 

Learn core breathing.

This teaches you how to properly engage your core. Rather than bracing or breath holding. It can be more challenging and might need some repetition and reinforcement for the brain’s neural pathways, but it is essential. This is safe to do prenatal and first thing you can do postpartum to help you connect to your center. We’ll go more in detail about core breathing as we move along the days, but if it is challenging for you.. Keep at it! Watch the video a few times and know it can take some time to find this connection.
