What is Breathwork?
Conscious breathing
"Breathwork" or conscious breathing is a simple but powerful method to reduce stress, improve sleep quality, strengthen concentration and promote feelings of calm and well-being.
Specifically, you work with the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, both of which control the body's unconscious functions:
The sympathetic nervous system is activated in stress or danger and puts the body in "fight-or-flight" mode. It increases heart rate, blood pressure and releases energy to get you ready for action.
The parasympathetic nervous system acts as a counterbalance and is activated in calm situations. It lowers heart rate and blood pressure, promotes digestion and helps the body recover and rebuild.
Through various breathing techniques, we stress the body and then make it relax. With this up and down regulation, we increase the mental and physiological stress tolerance, and over time you will become better at handling the "stress" you encounter in your everyday life.
A healthy balance between the two systems is thus essential for both physical and mental well-being.
"Breathwork" is therefore something for those who want to create a better well-being their everyday life.
We work with 4 elements. Oxygenation, breathhold, heat and cold.
Oxygenation
Oxygen plays a central role in breathwork, as it is necessary for the body's energy production and general function. When you increase oxygen uptake through conscious breathing, the body's cellular function improves, which can lead to increased energy and mental clarity. It can also reduce stress as it helps to balance the nervous system and improve the body's ability to regenerate. Increased oxygen supply can also strengthen the immune system, promote faster recovery after physical activity and create a feeling of calm and well-being by optimizing the body's natural processes.
I vores breathwork arbejder vi bl.a. TUMMO teknikkerne som er en gammel tibetansk vejrtrækningsteknik.
Breath hold
Breath hold, or CO2 training in connection with breathwork is about increasing the body's tolerance to carbon dioxide (CO2) through controlled breathing exercises. By holding your breath or breathing slowly, the level of CO2 in the blood increases, training the body to be more efficient in its use of oxygen. This can improve endurance and increase the body's ability to handle physical and mental stress. The exercises can also help create greater awareness of the breath and provide a deeper sense of calm and control.
Here we work with various weather protection techniques that are also used by freedivers.
Heat
Heat and sauna have many positive effects on both body and mind.
Physically, it helps to increase blood circulation, relieve muscle tension and cleanse waste products through sweat.
Regular heat exposure through sauna can also strengthen the immune system and reduce pain in joints and muscles.
Mentally, the sauna contributes to deep relaxation by lowering stress levels and activating the parasympathetic nervous system. It can improve sleep, increase well-being and provide a feeling of renewed energy.
The sauna is therefore an effective tool for both recovery and mental peace.
Cold
Taking an ice bath also has a number of positive effects on both body and mind.
Physiologically, cold exposure can reduce inflammation, promote muscle recovery and relieve post-exercise soreness. It increases blood circulation as the body draws blood towards the vital organs to protect itself from the cold. This can provide an energy boost and improve the body's general blood flow.
Mentally, ice baths improve mood and increase tolerance for physical and emotional stress, giving a sense of increased control and well-being in life.
The place
We facilitate our breathwork in our own little forest in a specially designed tent that we call Løvdalen.
There is room for 10 people in our open class - but we also offer 1-1 and 1-2 guided breathing sessions.
