Shallow breathing can have several negative effects on our physical and mental well-being. When we breathe shallowly, we do not fully utilize our diaphragm, which can lead to reduced oxygen intake. This, in turn, can result in increased stress and anxiety, as well as fatigue and decreased immune function. Shallow breathing can also contribute to muscle tension and headaches. Furthermore, shallow breathing is often associated with a more stressed and anxious state of mind, while deep diaphragmatic breathing is linked to a more relaxed and peaceful state. Therefore, practicing deep breathing techniques, such as the one mentioned in the context, can help reduce stress, improve mental clarity, and promote a sense of calm and well-being.
