Inspiratory dyspnea and stress, what solution?

Caution : You must consult your doctor for your health. This page presents only a personal and alternative point of view which should not be considered as an attempt to prescribe medicine.

When we are stressed, our body may no longer find a solution to the problem and therefore cause difficulty in breathing.

How to cope ?

Respiratory problems

We know that everyday life is filled with stress.

Whether at work, in school, in your personal life or in relationships, there are many situations where you can be anxious.

This can therefore result in a multitude of forms, more or less serious.

Some people will bite their nails and have sweaty hands.

Others will go around in circles or lose confidence in themselves.

Finally, people will develop respiratory problems which can sometimes be very problematic.

This phenomenon is called dyspnea and manifests itself in two forms:

• Inspiratory dyspnea: it is difficult to breathe in air
• Expiratory dyspnea: Conversely, it is difficult to breathe out air.

The pathology is characterized by difficult respiratory movement, whether consciously or unconsciously.

In addition, dyspnea is experienced differently: either it is tachypnea (acceleration of breathing) or it is bradypnea (deceleration of breathing).

Finally, this respiratory problem varies according to its frequency.

A short and rare dyspnea will be said to be acute, while a longer duration and an appearance at regular intervals will be said to be chronic.

Inspiratory dyspnea is often due to an obstacle in the larynx: foreign body, phlegmon, epiglottitis, vocal cord paralysis or even tumor. Here we will only be interested in case the breathing problem is due to stress.

Correct dyspnea to feel better

First, you need to know when you have difficulty breathing.

If you know that you are going to be stressed before a certain period of time, it will be easier for you to adjust and find the keys that will make you feel better.

There are many ways to relieve your stress and therefore ultimately dyspnea.

Managing your schedule so as not to be overloaded, quitting smoking, eating a healthy diet or not staying too long in front of the screens before falling asleep are little habits to change and thus feel a beneficial effect.

Quality sleep is also a powerful ally.

When night falls, the brain and muscles need to recharge their batteries in order to function optimally.

Finally, to sleep well, nothing better than to play sports.

This natural stress reliever will clear your mind, work your muscles and reduce your negative thoughts.

How to breathe to relieve shortness of breath?

Breathing is carried out by an organ called the diaphragm.

Its role of retraction is essential and if it becomes blocked, the entire respiratory process is then impacted.

Releasing your diaphragm is therefore something that can prove to be vital.

This is why Loris Vitry, yoga therapist, has built a free video workshop for you that aims to improve your well-being.

Using a method that teaches you the important role of breathing and focused exercise, it will free your diaphragm and improve your personal comfort.
