Asthma and Asthanga

[Guest guest]

Hello all,<br><br>I have recently started the

Buteyko method to cure Asthma, which claims that all

Asthmatics over breathe - Breathe through their mouth

instead of their nose, breathe too deeply, and too many

times a minute. ( This was definately true in my case.

)<br><br>The cure according to Buteyko is to always breathe

through your nose, and to also breathe very

shallowly.<br><br>Is breathing shallowly incompatible with Astanga

yoga?<br><br>Because this method is really helping me with my asthma,

and I really don't want to compromise it.<br><br>Liz
