According to the National Institutes of Health, deep breathing exercises are defined as an active process involving conscious regulation of inhaling and exhaling. Breathing exercises are used for therapeutic purposes, including relaxation and improving well-being. Research has shown that deep breathing exercises, including certain yoga breathing exercises, can influence physiological processes by decreasing the stress response, activating the parasympathetic system (the “rest and digest” response of the autonomic nervous system), and stimulating the release of certain hormones.

We summarize several popular breathing exercises below, which include individual techniques and methods that combine several breathing exercises in succession.
