Neurobiological substrates of altered states of consciousness induced by high ventilation breathwork accompanied by music

The popularity of breathwork as a therapeutic tool for psychological distress is rapidly expanding. Breathwork practices that increase ventilatory rate or depth, facilitated by music, can evoke subjective experiential states analogous to altered states of consciousness (ASCs) evoked by psychedelic substances. These states include components such as euphoria, bliss, and perceptual differences. However, the neurobiological mechanisms underlying the profound subjective effects of high ventilation breathwork (HVB) remain largely unknown and unexplored. In this study, we investigated the neurobiological substrates of ASCs induced by HVB in experienced practitioners. We demonstrate that the intensity of ASCs evoked by HVB was proportional to cardiovascular sympathetic activation and to haemodynamic alterations in cerebral perfusion within clusters spanning the left operculum/posterior insula and right amygdala/anterior hippocampus; regions implicated in respiratory interoceptive representation and the processing of emotional memories, respectively. These observed regional cerebral effects may underlie pivotal mental experiences that mediate positive therapeutic outcomes of HVB.

"Can AWS really fix AI hallucination?..."

AI HALLUCINATION IS NOT A BUG IT'S WHAT IT IS DESIGNED TO DO!!!! AAAUGH

#hyperventilation

Sorry, er, yeah. I mean you can, but I'm talking about current-gen Generative AI which is primarily designed as an artistic or expressive tool. You need to redesign the ENTIRE freaking Neural Net to remove hallucination DUH. AND I'M PISSED OFF AGAIN.

Effect of breathwork on stress and mental health: A meta-analysis of randomised-controlled trials - PubMed

Deliberate control of the breath (breathwork) has recently received an unprecedented surge in public interest and breathing techniques have therapeutic potential to improve mental health. Our meta-analysis primarily aimed to evaluate the efficacy of breathwork through examining whether, and to what …

From March to May 2023, hundreds of students from #Leyte National High School, mostly those having classes in the Gabaldon building, were rushed to the school clinic due to intense #headaches, #hyperventilation, and #asthma from the #ExtremeHeat.

For the first time ever, the school had to suspend face-to-face classes for two weeks due to heat.

This was not an isolated case. #BurningEarth #Philippines

Nearly 40 percent of people experience #syncope, or fainting spells, at least once in their lives. These brief losses of #consciousness, whether brought by pain, fear, heat, #hyperventilation or other causes, account for a significant portion of hospital emergency room visits.
