What is Zen Breathing?

Zen Kokyū, or Zen breathing, encourages us to be more mindful of our breathing, and can be used as a tool to improve our health and wellbeing. It is based on a breathing method written by Zen master Hakuin Ekaku in the 18th century, which is said to improve concentration, blood flow, and relaxation levels in its users.

Through Zen Kokyū, it becomes easier to connect your body and mind, making you more aware of the inner workings of your body.
