Are You Breathing Correctly?

So, a while back, I picked up this book called "Breath" by James Nestor, and let me tell you, it totally took my breath away😏 . Picture this: I'm on a plane next to Annette, trying out these breathing techniques from the book, and I must've looked like a complete lunatic! But you know what? I felt like I was floating on cloud nine, realizing in just five minutes that I'd been breathing all wrong my entire life.Nestor's book dives deep into the art of breathing, showing how it's not just about staying alive but about living healthy. He lays out how our breath—whether it's through our nose or mouth, fast or slow—affects everything from our longevity to our blood pressure and overall health.It's wild to think how something as simple as breathing through your nose instead of your mouth can make such a huge difference. Nestor explains how our modern diet and habits have turned us into a society of mouth-breathers, leading to issues like sleep apnea and reduced oxygen flow to our brains.But there's hope! By relearning how to breathe, we can unlock a whole new level of health and vitality. In this episode, we share practical tips and exercises to help you master the art of breathing and rediscover the power of breath.
