#S04 Special Episode - An In Depth Look on Breathing Physiology: Part 1 with Helene Cousin & Dominique Alfandari

The goal of the “In-Depth Look” series of videos is to explore these subjects in more detail — examining the relevance, efficacy, and methods of incorporating these work and life experiences into budo practice, budo teaching, and community building. Helene Cousin, Ph.D and Dominique Alfandari, Ph.D both teach and conduct research at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst in the Department of Veterinary & Animal Sciences. QUESTIONS COVERED: 1) What is actually happening on a physiological side when we breath? 2) What happens when we have poor breath control? 3) What affect does holding the breath have on our bodies? 4) Will a rapid or short inhalation be adequate to support a slow or long exhalation? 5) With consideration to your education and research, how do you regard the notion that inhalation creates an opening for attack?
