Using both Buteyko and Resonant Breathing
Hi FEO66
I've been searching all over to find someone who knows about both Buteyko and Resonant Breathing, and I'm so happy to have found your posts!
I have a few questions, I am at the beginning with both practices, and am curious about how they interact.
I've downloaded the 2 Buteyko/Breatheasy Iphone apps (which are great for coaching on the timing) and am using a biofeedback app called Stress Doctor (much cheaper than the stand-alone machines, but a bit weak on customer support)
You mentioned that you have been using both practices and that they create different HRV patterns. If you posted those graphs, could you direct me to them? Of if not, would you be willing to post them now?
It seems to me that the two might be working at cross purposes - does Buteyko breathing put your HRV out of sync? And what happens if you practice them at the same time? Can you used reduced volume breathing and still get the HRV sync-up?
Thanks so much for any thoughts you might have, and for all the posts you have provided on this topic, they have really helped me in my learning.
