Ty so much, as many can relate, once into your 40's or 50's you don't bounce back like you used to. ✌️

[cheryl]

I hope you’ll consider doing more videos on sleep and breathing! Your videos are always very helpful. Thank you! 😊

[nathananderson]

This is one of the channels that gave me the courage to start my YouTube channel 6 months ago about self development. Now I have 379 subs and > 100 hours of watch time. I know it’s not comparable with others but I’m still proud I started because I’ve been learning so many lessons that I couldn’t have learned without getting started in the 1st place.

Dear everyone, I wish you peace inside your soul. We are all light and all connected, don’t be scare, all gonna be ok. Your futur gonna be fantastic because you are fantastic. Thank you so much for your reading.

Your transparency here is really refreshing!

on the topic of prostate, Eric Berg says in one of his videos that low zinc levels are correlated with prostate problems; men with slightly lower levels have prostate enlargement, prostate cancer patients have even lower levels than that.

I do use 4 8 breathing. But ur video on triangle and box breathing was life changing!
Thanks very much!

[davidratkai]

Finally you dont blame late night sleeping, just prefer to go to bed almost the same time. Thanks!

[chris_g_vibes]

I am trying this right now before I go to bed( with a severe cold). Thank You YogaBody

[Mr.Singhhh]

The thing that is affecting my sleep is overthinking leading to stress and that leads to increase of body temperature

[Orwic]

Excellent video. I often have trouble sleeping - I’m familiar with the breathing exercise, but the position guidance was new to me, so many thanks for that. I’ll certainly try that out in the nights to come.

[ChandrasekharGolla-dflv]

This is 💯 currect good sleep is improove our life great job sir iam from india

[emil_rainbow]

Thank you for for 4/8 breathing technique. I find reading soul nourishing paper books for 10/15 minutes before lights sets the mood.

[cherierhynes]

Practical and the best part is I think I can actually do this. Thanks .. very thoughtful. Much needed for waking in the night.

[raquelrpj]

Love it as always! Real Yoga, for real life ❤

[marikalemay]

WoW! This video is excellent! Very well edited, structured, pleasant to listen to. Your voice is very calming too and your subject is well explained. I subscribe right away. Thank you!

[suzdupe]

Well worth the time investment to watch. As a scientist and a realist - and someone known to audibly groan when I spot lemmingesque retreading in the wild - I applaud your approach to reframing this topic. The fresh suggestions both make sense to me and demonstrate you value viewers’ time. Much appreciated!

I do have a few questions. Three, to be exact. 😁

RE: Breathing exercise
Was that ~15 reps?

RE: Magnesium
1. Does it matter what time of day you take the Mg supplements? (Would be incremental and variable if met via dietary intake…)
2. I’m curious why you recommend the bis-glycinate form. (Improved bioavailability, maybe?)

I know the last one is a bit weedsy, but I would genuinely find it helpful to understand your logic. I started down the counter-ion rabbit hole once before with a different supplement but didn’t find a resolution before my patience wore out. 🙃

Cheers!

Watching this at 3:20 AM after feeling tired but cant fall asleep
