I am a singer and trumpet player so I find that the circular breathing and long phrases needed to play the didj help me with my breath control and help me to breath more deeply |

It is part of my daily meditative activities and I find that it centres and grounds me as well as energizes me. |

It relaxes me a lot. I love to listen to the didj. I thought if I could learn to play and use circular breathing I would be able to help my lung capacity. I have an autoimmune disease that affects my breathing. |

I came across this website while collecting information for a college essay. I have not thought about such until I started reading. I am interested in winning or purchasing one for my boyfriend that has cancer in hopes it will help him. |

Playing didgeridoo helps with breathing and calms me. It's a lot like meditation in a way. |

I have severe anxiety and I am on medication for it. I have also been hospitalized more than once for it. Even though I am very new and my didgeridoo is very poor quality when I do attempt to play I find that I nearly become completely relaxed. There is something in this simple instrument that gets deep into my soul and relaxes me. Honestly I have not felt that relaxed in a very long time. It is truly amazing. |

Believe it or not it has totally eliminated my snoring! Which is great because it leads to more restful and healthy sleeping a pre-requisite to good health in general. |

Yeah I feel great while I'm playing and afterwards. It is good for my body. I am a very experienced musician sax player for 16 years I play many various instruments including wind instruments and didgeridoo is both great for the lungs but also the most physically comfortable to play because you can have a totally natural relaxed posture. |

Even though I can't play just practising and getting a drone going is a full body experience and is very relaxing. |

Spiritual awakening and I have not had a cold since I started to play. Stronger lungs and breathing lower resting heart rate. Sleeping better and have stopped snoring! |

Breathing improves dramatically. After playing I breath more full breaths from a deeper place in my body. My nasal passages are clearer allowing for less wind resistance while breathing. My attitude improves dramatically. I am less apprehensive as I gain more focus and breath control through playing didj. I leave a playing session calmer then when I went in even if I spent the whole time playing fast tunes. My posture improves as I breath deeply while sitting on the floor. As my body becomes resonant with the instrument it becomes easier to make healthy shifts to my alignment and really set them in with deep breath. |

I also play the trumpet and it really helps learning circular breathing and improved my performance on the trumpet. It's also great for relaxing the lips after playing the trumpet. |

The breathing alone is a great benefit. it is very meditative and since I use it for healing I get the benefit of the energy that comes thru me when I am applying it to others. |
