Anything using deep breathing exercise has a benefit on your lungs. I also find I am energised after a session feel elated proud relaxed content. So I guess I'm saying it is good for your mental wellbeing. May help people suffering depression or give young people with no direction a sense of achievement. |

The breathing would strengthen your lungs and the music and playing would have a calming effect and act as a stress reliever. |

It has a relaxing effect on me. It is like meditating. It clears your mind and relaxes your body. This effect is strongest if I use vocals and circular breathing |
