Would practicing breathwork away from stress be effective for training the ability to be mentally calm during stress?
Doesn't practicing the physiological sigh away from stress train us to maintain calmness and cognitive clarity during physically and mentally demanding conditions?
If the goal is to diminish the physiological response to a trigger, such as a traumatic experience with a spider, would working to change that response immediately after being triggered over time also diminish the physiological response and therefore break the conditioning? For example, if a person uses breathwork to calm the body every time they see the spider or get activated through some trigger, would that work like retelling a narrative to extinguish the fear?
