Sin aliento : El pánico por la falta de aire y su curación

Among the various forms of panic attacks related to the fear of dying, the most common is the sensation of running out of breath, almost to the point of suffocation. Both mechanisms—breathing and fear—influence each other in a psychophysiological escalation that culminates in panic and dyspnea. Drawing on his extensive clinical experience, Giorgio Nardone proposes an effective therapeutic intervention that is simultaneously psychological therapy and respiratory rehabilitation. He also offers insightful reflections on the mechanics that fuel the sensation of suffocation. Breaking the vicious cycle between pathological fear and dysfunctional breathing is both possible and necessary.
