"As you will rapidly discover, the way to survive is to slow your breath down as much as possible, to get maximum air and to increase your rest period between each set."
How to understand "as much as possible"?
Through my Butekyo practice I am learning to spend several minutes in a controlled state of air hunger, which relaxes me. Have tried several times between swings to breathe as little as possible, but was unsure on how much air hunger to create is acceptable? There is that thin line between comfort and panic, also depends on ones daily situation.
Question especially for the Buteyko practitioners that I know of (@Steve Freides, @aciampa, @Anna C, @Oscar), can the style of breathing during breath-timing be compared to the Very Light/Little Breathing of Buteyko? If so, then this would be the "easiest" way for me to understand. Or do you see any differences?
