We do it every day. Up to 20,000 times. Even when we sleep. Or not thinking about it. We always do it. Breathing is probably our most important body function. We can survive for days without food and drink, but only a few minutes without oxygen. Reason enough to take a closer look at this element – because it is also an effective anti-aging booster. More than that, it is the fountain of youth par excellence.

Whoever does yoga knows this: in breathing exercises, so-called pranayama, we become aware of an apparently natural activity, breathing. A dog looking down without a long exhalation? Unthinkable. Collective lip snorting that sounds like a horse stable? No problem in a yoga studio. Here you have long since realized that breath is much more than just empty air – and indeed the oxygen in the air we breathe, or more precisely the atmosphere, is the basis of our life. Of all life.

Secret Anti-Aging Booster: Living Air 

All the worse that pure and above all energy-rich air is becoming an increasingly rare and precious commodity. Cities in particular are too heavily polluted with all kinds of pollutants. Urban life therefore has a price: bad air pollutes health, energy and physical condition. Anyone who does not breathe the right air can suffer physically and cause us to age faster. No wonder that more and more city dwellers go out into nature in their free time, because nowhere else is the air as clear and full of vitality as in the forests. And don’t you immediately smell the spicy air when you think of it? Can’t you feel the moss under your feet and hear the crackling of branches and nothing but silence except the chirping of birds? Experiences in nature are stored deep within us because they are among the most valuable experiences of all. The escape into the woods has long had a name: Forest bathing has become a new trend. About 500 scientific studies have already been published.

Once again, as with yoga, people from the Far East have demonstrated it to us. In Japan, Shinrin-yoku – in German: Wald(luft)bad – is a tradition. The idea behind it: Whoever stays in the forest, opens himself to it with all his senses through breathing, literally bathes in it, does something existentially good for soul and body. And this has a lot to do with the quality of air. Studies from Asia prove that even a one-hour walk through the forest can lower blood pressure, pulse and the stress hormone cortisol. The forest air, which also contains up to 90 percent fewer dust particles than city air, strengthens our immune system. There is also good news for our cells, because free radicals that cause us to age are also reduced. Anti-aging fans can therefore rejoice: while in the city our skin is exposed to permanent oxidative stress and thus loses its elasticity and tends to wrinkle more quickly, an optimal supply of healthy oxygen counteracts the aging process.

Bringing the forest indoors 

But what to do if the next clearing is not just around the corner? Pure and energetic air like in the forest can now be breathed not only outdoors, but also in spas, beauty, wellness and fitness studios. The company SPIROYAL has developed a completely new breathing air technique, which helps the body in a natural way to increase the energy intake of oxygen. In this application, the immediate breathing atmosphere is brought into a permanently active, high-energy state by a method based on photosynthesis. The so-called “spirovitalization” starts directly with the mitochondria, which serve as a power station for the cells. By absorbing the highly energetic oxygen, which imitates the clear forest air, through light breathing glasses or a suitable headset, the oxygen utilization (med. Utlisiation) in our organism is demonstrably improved, which leads to all kinds of positive effects in the body.

The oxidation process responsible for aging, which we experience, for example, with sliced apples that quickly turn brown, is inhibited. The promise: More energy from the outside as well as from the inside and a more vital appearance. After the spirovital therapy you feel fitter, more powerful and more concentrated. Spirovitalization works holistically – and that is why it is increasingly being discovered as an anti-aging booster and beauty treatment… and is often combined with other proven treatments in innovative lifestyle institutions.

Anti-Aging Booster Air: If you want to be beautiful, you have to breathe

Many spas, wellness hotels, beauty and fitness studios now offer this body-compatible and modern oxygen 2.0 treatment. Since the beginning of April, for example, the new CitySpa Cocoons in Breidenbacher Hof, Düsseldorf. After all, who doesn’t want to breathe beautifully? The elegant vitalizers from SPIROYAL in the SPA set, consisting of the Avantgarde breathing station and the Stream HS for external treatment, can not only be booked as the main treatment, but are also ideal as a supplement to massages or facial treatments. The effect of this dermovitalization convinces many customers: an anti-aging process modelled on the most pristine nature is perceived as soothing and gives a completely new, directly experienceable meaning to the old wisdom that beauty comes from within. In addition, this is also done, as in the forest, without additional oxygen, like previous methods, as well as without ozone or exogenous substances

So the German Romantics were more than right when they sang of the forest as a place of longing. For where else but in the forest should Snow White have fled to? Precisely. Now we also know why she was the most beautiful in the whole country – and we can do the same.
