Healing on the didgeridoo player
Breathing is one of the most important aspects to our health. Didgeridoo players who circular breath get the advantages of deeper controlled breathing which in turn allow for more air to be circulating around the lungs. Breathing is used by our bodies to control our emotions, when we are scared or experience pain or anger we breathe in and hold our breathe. This is how our emotions become locked up in our bodies and eventually lead to dis-ease. Playing the didgeridoo allows the player to oforce air out of the lungs, a reversal of the above situation.

"If you play the didgeridoo for longer than half an hour, you are likely to go into a trance like state. It is as if your brainwaves go into alpha state. Most people report becoming very relaxed and yet very aware, feeling at rest and yet being energised. " quote from: www.didjshop.com
