Deep breaths will trigger the parasympathetic nervous system and transmit that information to the brain and to the cardiovascular system, which then responds by slowing the heart rate, dilating the blood vessels so that the blood pressure comes downShort and shallow breathing, like when we do when we're anxious or scared, will inflate just the upper areas of the lung and actually stimulate the receptors that are associated with the sympathetic nervous response. So, you are perpetuating that fight or flight when we take short, choppy breaths; whereas deep breathing stimulates the vagus nerve and activates that relaxation response of the parasympathetic nervous system.How We Can Support Adrienne—and Each Other Our community’s love and presence are powerful.
