Controlled, slow diaphragmatic breathing increases parasympathetic activation—your “rest-and-digest” response—and lowers cortisol, helping to calm both mind and body. Read the PLOS One study on diaphragmatic breathing and stress reduction .
Structured breathing protocols like box breathing improve heart rate variability (HRV), a key marker of autonomic balance, and have been linked to greater stress resilience. View the Nature Scientific Reports trial on coherent breathing .
Brief guided breathing sessions improve working memory, learning retention, and attentional control in healthy adults. See the study on breathing exercises and cognitive function (PMC) .
