Holotropic Breathwork

[MM1988]

Arent you doing basically the same to yourself as people huffing compressed air? Does this look like it could grow you?

That lady is displaying a remarkable level of equanimity for someone who was just part of a car crash.

OP, why are you besmirching the good character of someone who is clearly a fellow seeker of enlightenment?

This is just my speculation but here it is.
You need a certain amount of order to integrate chaos and to make it beneficial.
Like Leo is clearly very serious about it, reads tons of book, strategic, disciplined, have many conceptual frameworks in place and so on. When you alter your consciousness state with such strategic preparation of course it can grow you. You will make new reference points, expose some subconscious stuff, connect some dots about your inner experience and so on.
There are many people that use breath techniques, mind altering substances and it doesn't look like it grows them, on the contrary. May be they have too much chaos and could use some strict dogmatic system to hold them together. Like atheistic materialism polished by many scientific experiments, brilliant thinkers, consensus and peer review.

Though some dogmatic religion can be better, because it at least attempts to deal with what is important to people, like meaning, higher purpose, spiritual growth and at the same time was already tested by generations to be somewhat livable and wholesome.

Although inhalants are legal, easily accessible and produce hallucinations, they can cause permanent brain damage.
