Practice That Transforms
Functional Breathing Foundations
An 8-week online course to restore natural, everyday breathing and allow the body to return to ease
Breathing should support relaxation.
For many people, it doesn’t.
This course restores natural, everyday breathing so the body can settle and return to ease.
Section Title
Why breathing matters
​
The parasympathetic nervous system supports rest, recovery, and repair.
Breathing is the most direct way to influence this system.
Under stress, breathing often becomes strained or excessive.
Stress alters breathing.
Altered breathing creates more stress.
This course helps you step off that loop.
This course is suitable for:
​
​• People whose breathing feels effortful, restless, or tense
• Those who want their body to feel more settled in daily life
• Anyone curious about breathing but unsure where to start
• Teachers who want to guide the breath more clearly and responsibly
​No prior experience is required.
Benefits of restoring healthy breathing
​
• Gently improving tolerance to carbon dioxide
• Improving oxygen efficiency without breathing more
• Reducing habitual over-breathing
• Less breathlessness and chest tension
• Supporting parasympathetic nervous system activity
• Greater sense of calm and bodily ease
• Increased resilience to everyday stress
• A stable foundation for further breathing practices
Section Title
A note on advanced breathing practices
​
Stable everyday breathing is essential before exploring more deliberate techniques.
Without it, such practices can place unnecessary strain on the nervous system.
