Feelings of stress and anxiety activate the sympathetic nervous system (SNS), which is responsible for the fight or flight response. As a result, our breathing changes as a natural part of this stress response,’ says Richie Bostock, also known as The Breath Guy.
‘When we inhale, we start to engage our secondary breathing muscles located in the shoulders, neck and chest that support us to breathe faster. This is helpful when priming us for a state of action, ready to run away from or fight a perceived threat, but if we unconsciously breathe faster than our metabolic demands require (e.g. when we’re sitting at our desks) it can result in hypocapnia, a lack of carbon dioxide in the blood that can cause a feeling of breathlessness.’

It’s rare and refreshing to see discussions on TV like the ones Kevin has about his birth family. But there’s one part of Bling Empire we all need to talk about. Andrew is where reality TV goes from drama to plain uncomfortable, and we have to call out his actions in Bling Empire for what they are: Aggressive, gaslighting, love-bombing, and all-round manipulative – in short, it’s abusive.
