In my case I do think it partly the unseen stress in my life. I am from all fronts, mostly calm but it is the inner reaction that is weak. I maintain my fitness regardless, but some days I am left with little energy.
I was reading through all the posts since Gabe originally posted in May 2018.
Interestingly, I could relate to many of those feelings and will in time experiment. However, for me I also
came across a post that said not to think to much about taking another deep breath or yawning.......try to be dismissive of such feelings and 'get on with it'. Giving into this creates another cycle and lasts for days, weeks,
and at this stage for me, most of this year.
If you can distract yourself (yes, it is a hard thing to do) and as I do, work on brain to lung function, in other words, calm the anxiety. Ask if it is your brain taking over from normal lung function. This last week along with Buteyko morning and evening, I have been working on distraction and it has certainly got me out of a cycle that was leaving me with little energy and wondering what next.......
Hope this helps.
