GQ have a great piece concerning Rebecca Dennis and how to use breathwork to enter a different state of consciousness. Here’s an excerpt:

“Breathwork is the active form of consciously changing the rhythm, rates and depth of your breath to access and process mental, physical and emotional tension and enter a higher state of awareness,” Dennis tells GQ.

If that sounds too good to be true, hold fire on the cynicism. Behind many people’s enjoyment of yoga and meditation is a desire to relax, and breathwork can “fast track you to that place”, she adds.
