During any time of high stress, breathing and pranayama practices help cleanse the body and strengthen immunity. Mindful breathing practices tone the vagus nerve, stimulating the parasympathetic nerve response, which promotes rest and digest. Simply put, mindful breathing can contribute to overall health and well-being.
