Been doing strict nasal breathing during running again for the past couple of weeks, Artour believes this is the most effective way to raise ones control pause. My resting breathing pattern has become much reduced during this time, but I do not necessarily feel better, most notably decreased appetite.
Could be reduced breathing is useful for inducing relaxation, since I do feel a great stillness when I consciously control and reduce my breathing, but that it conversely inhibits stimulation and is counter-productive in any situation where you actually want to increase stimulatory processes, since if you observe any situation where a person is aroused, stimulated or excited, the tendency is to increase ones breathing and even deliberately breathe through the mouth. Maybe persistently reducing your breathing will inhibit your ability to become stimulated, and this leads to reduced metabolism over time.
To observe Artour in his videos he seems hypothyroid and exhibits an inhibited personality, stark difference to someone like Wim Hof, who is quite a bit older.
