There are many triggers that can affect your breathing. The following list outlines common triggers for breathing pattern disorders:
Anaemia
Anxiety or low-grade chronic depression
Asthma, COPD, chest problems
Chronic pain – physical or emotional
Grief and loss
Hormone upsets (PMS, pregnancy or menopause)
Insomnia or broken sleep
Mouth-breathing/nasal & sinus problems
Poor posture or bad ergonomics at your desk
Post-operative or injury problems
Tight clothes
The terrible twins – stress and fatigue
Post viral exhaustion
Work hassles, or redundancy
If an altered breathing pattern is prolonged, it can become the “default pattern” and normal breathing patterns are lost. This can lead to a long list of symptoms including shortness of breath, dizziness and neck pain.
