Breathing will always be first in what is needed to live .. Moßt of us don't know how to breathe . At 74 I am still trying to do it right . Tbank you for your much needed help at this critical time .

I Worked a job at a major airline and did “email breathing “ for 13 years! Awful stress messed up my breathing and body. I’m Healing now slowly.

The quality of our lives really does seem to in the breath. I remember how bad my breathing was, I didn't even know what my own diaphragm was suppose to feel like when you inhale, I failed to truly see just how much of an impact I could made in my life, just how close I was to something great, the opportunity was quiet literally in my hands. I didn't stick with it long enough, and as a result I was set back a good few years, because there is absolutely nothing in life that wont improve, your ability to regulate your emotions, regulate your metabolism, regulate your muscle gains, your body recovery, the sleep quality, your ability to reduce stress and anxiety, and make more responsive and better decisions naturally. It all lies in the health and strength of your lungs and how well you breathe.

For real, never stop looking after and strengthening your respiratory system.

I would love to go back to that time when I started breathing with the diaphragm. That moment in time literally was life changing. Its added years to my life and saved me from depression, anxiety and generally bad health.i tried to breathe with my chest the other day and I just couldn't do it.
Also I bless the day I found Wim Hof.That was one beautiful day.I do it every morning without fail and that too has helped me so much.Also my never mouth breathe its always nasal.Any other way just feels so unnatural. What a beautiful life!Bless all.

When I was 9 my orthodontist told me my tongue belongs on the roof of my mouth. And I’ve been keeping it there ever since. You can’t be a mouth breather with your tongue on the roof of your mouth.

[kirstinstrand]

I'm a mouth breather; I grew up in swimming pool and joined the swimming team young. We needed to breathe through our mouth.
Glad I found this!

[ellensteadman]

The tongue is such a busy muscle it needs a rest...its natural place of rest is lodging itself next to the upper palate... its sort of cozy there.... when it is resting there nose breathing is the only possibility so its no stress to breathe through your nose when your tongue is resting there ... Have a wonderful day.

I think work emails do or can directly trigger our fight or flight response. A stressful work email can trigger the deep fear of losing our job. Think about what a job provides, food, shelter, medicine, transportation, etc... To feel the fear of possibly losing our job is the modern day equivalent to the past fear of the tiger in the jungle.

Insightful. It is true, it's like learning a new way of talking. It requires focus and diligence, never giving up trying to breathe through nose (making exhales slower then inhales to be peaceful), but one day you just notice you're kind of doing it now and then w/o even trying. My goal is 100% habit by end of 2022. then i can sail a while.

[naeemazehra]

Dr Nestor you are my life saver. honestly i was having breathing problem . one day i saw you on computer since then my life has changed. thanks millions for doing great work for us. may Lord keep healthy and blessed.

I have read James Nestor's book. And watched many of his interviews. This was the most organized and thoughtful discussion of the bunch. You dove into so many of the details and fleshed out what is rushed over in so many other interviews.

[jeffmann]

I knew about Nitric oxide and now I know how to turn it on. Before breath work, blood pressue 156/92 after breathing properly, Blood pressure 121/84. Appreciate the content!

I also practice Vipassana meditation and It saved my life when I was diagnosed with a very serious medical illness but have since cured myself through the basics as James Nestor mentions

So many of us grow into adulthood with serious sinus congestion due to allergy issues. This forces us to learn to breath from our mouths out of necessity. You must have open sinus passages in order to nose breath and especially when sleeping. I started playing the saxophone at the age of 13 and was forced to learn fast inhalation and delayed exhalation. It changed my life in a good way and did not really realize the benefit of relearning how to breath correctly. I know doctors as far back as the 1930s that prescribed a wind instrument for congestion of lung and sinus problems. I have been teaching the importance of lower diaphragm breathing ever since I experienced the results. It is amazing how in high stress situations I can close my eyes and breath slowly and deeply to regain calm balance. Thank you for this and especially the way you present it. Next is ambient noise effects on our body and mind.

We are literally moving through spaces of rhythms - and we are all cabable of becoming conscious and aware cocreators of the rhythms and vibrational colors that we send out - and breathing, movements, thoughts, feelings, nature sounds, Music, colors, are all doors into experiencing and expressing and receiving and creating all kinds of realities - the web of lives —— 🌸🌺💗

I'm a very healthy and health concious senior. I thought I was doing everything right. I've been wearing a fitbit and monitoring my sleep data for over 6 years. My sleep data has always conformed to the norms for woman my age although my deep phase sleep data was always on the low end of normal and rem sleep phase was below normal as well. I don't have sleep apnea or noticeable sleep problems. When I started mouth taping a few months ago my sleep data completely shifted almost immediately. My deep phase sleep time tripled, my REM sleep increased while my light phase sleep was reduced by over a third. I was shocked and amazed that it could make such a difference by the numbers. It's made me much more concious of how I breath while awake as well. The Wim Hoff periodic extreme breathing techniques is harnessing the benefits of "homesis". The modern longevity experts would say that hormesis is a key component of longevity.

I suffer hard breathing every time after I took my meal, heart beat run fast and can’t talking for a short time, feel suffer breathing until I watch James Nestor how to breath properly video only I acknowledge I breath I breath using my mouth and I didn’t acknowledge it. After 2 weeks I train and force myself breath using nose, I start feel way better and now it’s a month, I getting way better now, I can jogging, talking freely without any pain.

[ridgebackpups]

I have lung cancer and other lung issues, I been told over & over in through the nose out through pursued lips.

[ursularose]

I used to teach the violin in schools and always dreaded the new starters who walked through the door with their mouths hanging open! They tended to be very remote and passive (rather than active and engaged) learners and had far slower reflexes than the nose breathers. School teachers really need to incorporate breathing training into their lessons as well as the Alexander Technique.

[Suziesuzi]

Very interesting podcast. I think it seems obvious that 2020 is the year breathing seems so important is because there of pandemic, one which affects people’s ability to breathe, it is our lifeline.
