Change Your Breath, Change Your World | Lynsie McKeown | TEDxAsheville

How do we raise Consciousness? We don’t. Instead we learn ways to remove the obstacles that impair our ability to perceive and to connect to Consciousness, all through the Power of the Breath. As a student and teacher of yoga and meditation, personal trainer, and educator, Lynsie helps individuals find the right combination of tools to build a solid foundation for positive change. Lynsie believes we all have the capability to heal, transform and awaken to our full potential. Her passion is to share the methods that enable each of us to thrive and live an empowered life.

I've always dismissed this deep breathing thing as nonsense, but I'm realising it is a miraculous thing that just cannot be ignored.

Yoga and Meditation is the best gift India has given to this world.

Rhythmic flow of energy = Healthy body = No disease since flow of energy is harmonic.

Brilliantly explained by the speaker 👌👌

[SinLambda]

does anyone else notice the drastic change in her mood/energy at 2:02? it is like, "this is who I was *SNAP* "This is who I am NOW." it's very poetic how she did that.

[PoodlePlugins]

Can't remember watching a Ted talk as good as that, absolutely brilliant!

Ever since I watched that first video on breathing, I have been bombarded with videos on breathing by Ted. I have watched many of them. Some tell you to breath deeply while others tell you to take short breaths. I don't know how to breath anymore.

[sanjubhargav]

One of the best impactful ted talk are awesome.

Lynsie,
Thank you for your vulnerability in sharing your personal story. I found myself in some of that description. I have had an on and off practice of breath work. I know the benefits. In coming across this talk I have been reintroduced to it. Your calm presence, soft voice and authenticity is welcomed and received. .

[junebenson]

Thank you, Lynsie. This brought me back to my mindfulness practice and reminded me how deeply important deep breathing really is. Your "junk drawer" visual really helped me, I understood what you meant by it and how breathing from your gut does bring awareness to things and feelings we don't want to face. I felt that and it brought up times where I was so afraid to do something because I didn't want to waste my time away from playing a game on my phone, that when I pushed through the fear and did the thing anyway I felt a strength come over me. Your talk reminded me to incorporate my mindfulness practice back into my days.

I was walking outside while listening to your talk, I walk fast so when you were deep breathing with the audience I was slowing my walk, slowing my breathing and I had to stop so I could get the full benefit of your exercise. I think I stopped at some random person's house, lol. When the exercise was done and I opened my eyes I was staring at a green field with a nice big tree. I had a big smile on my face.

It helped me rid my walk of the noise of my thoughts of the future plans I haven't made yet.

I will be practicing my mindfulness more today and every day.

[marciwhitton]

Omg, this was incredible, it is abundantly obvious that you have found your calling in life. There is an ease in the way that you can change the way people feel about themselves and bring them into the light. Thank you so much.
