When we live in continuous triggers or emotional stress that keep us in fight or flight mode, Our sympathetic division of the Nervous system remains active without our control. When this division is active, you can not go into deep sleep, your digestion becomes sluggish and your body remains in survival mode. Your immune cells come forefront and remain on high alert and things that are not harmful also get them triggered and you get a reaction like hives or sneezing without being even exposed to viruses.
Wow! This was such an important piece of information. I have been doing box-breathing as a part of my daily yoga schedule but wasn't aware of what it is doing in the background to help activate my parasympathetic nervous system (and how that helps)! I should be doing this more often in the day..
