breathing synchronization

Description

Breathing synchronization is the social art of silently matching another’s breath to create intimacy beyond words. Effective not only with lovers but also in boardrooms and yoga classes, it offers the twin thrills of shared harmony and subtle dominance. Maintaining flawlessly aligned breaths in a group resembles a wordless choir, yet is nothing more than a hypocritical ritual of mutual stress-sharing. With every deep inhale, it deceives participants into forgetting how superbly they’re being controlled.
