Shallow breathing can have various effects on the body and mind. Physically, it can lead to increased tension in the chest and shoulders, decreased oxygen supply to the body, and heightened stress levels. Mentally, shallow breathing is often associated with feelings of anxiety, and it can contribute to a sense of unease or restlessness. In contrast, deeper diaphragmatic breathing can promote relaxation, increase oxygenation of the body, and help reduce stress and anxiety. By consciously practicing deeper breathing techniques, such as focusing on breathing from the stomach, you can potentially counteract the negative effects of shallow breathing and cultivate a greater sense of peace and well-being.
