Somehow I don’t think the fish consented to this…

Some of those seem to have consented after being forced to.

I’m pretty convinced the cat is just being a cat though.

Looks like it’s going through some reps

Thanks for sharing. How does the fish one work? The dolphin I get because it breathes oxygen, but don’t all fish have gills? I feel like it should be in the water.

It can be out for a matter of minutes.
Humans are just ludicrously overdependent on aerobic respiration, our brain metabolism is overcharged to the point of being broken.
Most other animals have a lot more room to function sans oxygen, they’re more limited by stored energy reserves.

I’m in a yoga teacher training at the moment, and a biologist by training. It’s been amazing seeing how the different yogic breathing techniques impact mental and physical states.
Those crazy folks in the Indus valley civilization made a serious study of this, at least 4,000 years ago according to current evidence. Some techniques, like yiga nidra (alternate nostril breathing for several minutes) have significant impacts on nervous system function.
You can measure this directly with a cheap heart rate monitor and an app that can interpret and returns stats on heart rate variability.
Those old yogis made a study out of exploiting our brain’s dependence on oxygen and developed some pretty cool biohacks.

Wim Hof breathing is so good from time to time
Have never given him money and think he ventures into pseudoscience but this beginner video is safe (no BS, just breathing)

Anything on there that fixes POTS or general awareness of everything around us?

Does
mean holding lefty closed with your finger for a few minutes then righty, or does it mean back and forth… surely you can’t do this without manual intervention, right?

Why do you use sans instead of just saying without?
Septimaeus@infosec.pub 1 month ago
It adds cheek. Sans’ use was revived to alter one’s tone to sound stuffier. A visual equivalent might be putting on a top-hat and monocle.

You’re supposed to hold your breath for a CT, so the fish is just fine for a bit.

Maybe the fish are dead, or not out of the water for too long.
