Skip breathing is only bad in diving when you are doing it to save air. You are then depriving yourself of oxygen that you actually need.
Skip breathing if you are able to do it properly makes you more relaxed(like yoga) you are breathing in a more controlled manner, but it does save air! |
In all fairness that's only one of several breathing exercises that are performed. Overall yogic breathing techniques combine to make you more aware and in control of your breathing.
