A Word of Caution and Recommendations
While breathwork offers numerous benefits, it's important to approach it with caution, especially if you have underlying medical conditions or are on medication. Consult with a healthcare professional before starting any breathwork practice.
Some individuals, such as those with breathing issues, cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure, or a history of aneurysms, may be advised against breathwork. Hyperventilation, which breathwork may induce, can lead to various symptoms, including dizziness and tingling of extremities.
When engaging in breathwork, ensure you follow guided recordings, and programs, or work with reputable practitioners to pace yourself and maximise the benefits while minimizing risks.
