## What is Butterflies (Breathing Games)?

This is especially recommended for people with breathing related (asthma, emphysema, COPD) and stress related (anxiety, blood pressure) disorders. In general, medical doctors encourage people to perform Pursed Lip Breathing in order to get more oxygen, to gain more energy or to relax.
