Learn to maximise breathing capacity. Breathing is the most important function in the human body, it is the first function that keep us alive. This course provides you with knowledge to improve your energy levels and prevent ageing with correct respiration. Prerequisite:Human Anatomy & Physiology BSC101 or equivalent.
This course describes the art of breathing. It provides you with knowledge to improve your energy levels and prevent ageing with correct respiration. Breathing is the most important function in the human body, it is the first function that keep us alive. Correct breathing gives us energy and prevents ageing.
