These techniques are legit, really helped me with panic attacks when I was younger and still use them daily 👍

[@shannonhouttuin6264]

So can I ask, when do you do them. When you're feeling anxious or having complaints? Or just on set times to not complaints at all anymore ?

[@the_alien_1239]

That’s really amazing, I think I’ll need them and I hope they help a lot!!

I forgot how to breathe and it scares me so much. I am shallow breather and I have so much anxiety because I focus on my breathing because I don’t know how to breathThanks for sharing this video

[@johncaccioppo1142]

I've struggled with this my whole life thanks to early childhood trauma. My current strategy is to just obsess on breathing, watching videos, sharing them, advising everyone I know that all their problems are due to poor breathing. If it completely drives everyone nuts, I am forced to obsess even harder. Perhaps a less abrasive strategy is something I call two-stage breathing. It's super simple for those times I'm too hypo-oxygenated to focus on a task, or when my muscles are worn out from breathwork which I try to get to about once a month. I just watch my breath, then push an extra inhalation or exhalation at the end of each cycle to make it deeper, both in and out.

[@shhh._6645]

Turns out i was not the only one thankgod

[@luminousstrawberries]

@@johncaccioppo1142 holy crap that works amazing!! Thank you!

[@johncaccioppo1142]

@@luminousstrawberries Yeah it gets you kickstarted, but I have to warn against doing it too much. Any kind of extreme breathing practice can have negative effects if overdone. The most important breathing you can do is just relaxed breathing, watching your breath go in and out naturally as a meditation. When I learned how to do that while working hard it really changed my life. I say study breathing seriously, there are a lot of amazing ideas and practices and they can all help in different ways at different times.

[@ssh3178]

I never knew that was a thing until i recently forgot how to breath due to a suicide attempt and sometimes my ribs and lungs hurt because i don’t do it properly then i feel dizzy and i stress out. I’ve noticed it’s affecting my health so ive been looking at videos like these to hopefully get back to my normal breathing. One thing that upsets me the most about forgetting how to breath is that i struggle to sing now. I hope i can sing as well as i did before..

[@sshepardcommander1801]

So it's basically different forms of pranayam and kumbhaka. Kumbhaka or breath retention inside or outside can help purify the nervous system. If anyone is interested search kumbhaka and practice it daily. Pranayam helped me overcome depression and also improve my health.

[@conradmckenzie740]

Thank you for 4 7 8, been looking for a breathing exercise that works, once again thank you.

[@cockeyedoptimista]

That's my favorite too.

[@jp3576]

Breathing and creativity go hand and hand. No matter ones job skill. A breath creates a center for action and all action requires a kind of breathing. From piano player to plumber, breathing is the action of art. That said, understanding breathing during stressful times is an art unto itself. 👍🙏

[@DaBears08]

I sing their song at work......damnt

[@BobandBrad]

Nothing to be ashamed of! Loud and Proud!

[@TammyRStephens]

Thats funny

[@theotherway1639]

Good vid. There's a nice breathing exercise in the meditation book "30 Days to Reduce Anxiety" by Harper Daniels.

I use heartbeats instead of seconds. It gradually slows the whole sysytem down. I used it on bleeders when I was a rural medic.

[@biswajit7940]

Thanks Bob and brad. You both are always my best friend. This is what indian people has already taught before 1000 year ago about pranayam Vipassana by which we can tackle many diseases.

[@heyheylistennow]

I didn’t even need to keep watching that intro relaxed me before my history presentation

[@russell311000]

lol,

[@valeriestark459]

I have always been so skeptical about breathing exercises, because I figured, I'm breathing no matter what so how is something so simple going to change my mindset? But I decided to try it today and wow! It helps so much! I am glad I finally decided to give it a try. Thank you :)

[@krish6729]

Thanks Bob & Brad. Watching your videos is itself quite relaxing and encouraging. These breathing moves are lovely and even easy to do; on a bus, on a train, during *TV ad-breaks* ..... etc. And with regard to the last mentioned, it could also help us breathe away the guilt of binge-watching.😊 I also like to think that if we get our breathing right, our fitness goals will be that much more easily achievable.

[@gaillmani1942]

Thank you for another great video. I listen to a new one every day. Since starting we now do you 7 Daily exercises regularly. I do the 7 wakeup exercises every day. Since starting these, I have less ache & pains. You guys are Amazing.

Thankyou heaps for another fantastic video. Can feel my breathing alot after different cervical surgery

[@ascension-spiritualawakeni7865]

Repeat this out loud in front of a mirror twice a day while smiling and nodding your head up and down, because you are agreeing with your affirmations. 1. Every decision I make is supported by my whole and inarguable experience. 2. I affirm and encourage others, as I do myself. 3. I alone hold the truth of who I am. 4. I am allowed to ask for what I want and what I need. 5. I am allowed to feel good. 6. I am capable of balancing ease and effort in my life. 7. I am complete as I am, others simply support me. 8. I am content and free from pain. 9. I am doing the work that works for me. 10. I am good and getting better.

[@allenl9214]

One of the best videos in this day and age where so many are often sitting, focused on their phones, little interaction with people and have greater anxiety

[@anunimus_2706]

Bro you have no idea how amplified that is in 2020

[@5MinutePsychology]

Many psychologists use breathing techniques. If executed right, they help a lot. I am currently working with a person with social anxiety and breathing techniques have already changed his life.

[@letajones8556]

I am so " addicted " to your videos! 😀 Thank you, guys !

[@Misakachichan]

3:19 Brad-so we got the little Teddy bear here, just so you can see it Bob- Teddy bear?! That’s a lion! 😂😂😂😂

[@jiyaissleeping]

Lmaooo

[@cockeyedoptimista]

I'm very glad that Bob pointed out, with some urgency, that that was a lion. I'm also glad that Brad referred to it as a teddy bear.

[@Listermintsluesh]

Yeah these are good. Been trying wim Hoff, Which, is pretty intense...the box breathing is something you can do anytime and is simple and easy.

[@oyamasowazi836]

[@reginadavis1028]

Guys LOVE the quotes @ the beginning of your videos! Brad cracked me up when w/his teddy bear breathing demonstration says, I'M GOOD! Yes Bob, very well done. Too cute 😹

[@janedoe805]

Brad when I saw that little lion cub going up-and-down, I totally lost it! I sprained my neck laughing! I love you guys so much! Thank You for all of your terrific and informative videos. 👍🏼♥️ P.S. Omg, the last one made me very lightheaded? 😱

[@cockeyedoptimista]

One could hyperventilate. Me too; it's still good for you I think, just be sure ti have something sturdy to hold onto or do sitting down perhaps and don't overdo. (I know your comment is old; I just came back to this great video, who needs something new? Timeless wisdom.)

[@xpost92]

It’s very interesting. I’m starting to see how this has affected me. Poor breathing will cause dysfunction in the neck muscles which in turn affects the nerves in the neck. Can cause significant dysfunction and serious pain

[@faithsmith3883]

[@Boxingjoker26]

Y'all are awesome!

[@ginalombardi4293]

Alternate nostril breathing is cool too

[@bmetz3843]

I like the box breathing, I use an app called calm that has something similar with a circle and a little ball that goes around and it goes for 10 seconds and then it stops and holds for 5 seconds and then releases for 10 seconds and it's a really good method to calm anxiety

[@barbarapakay4149]

I have been running and I am always out of breath. I hope this helps. Going to try it.

[@faisalfaisal3170]

tanks are you sir very helpful people

[@chinookvalley]

Who ISN'T stressed??? Hopefully these will help me to get some sleep. Repetitive thinking, break the cycle by breathing!

[@gamingwithkev8208]

Thanks so much for this. doc. I just did it and I feel so much more relaxed plus it feels like tension is leaving through my stomach.. It's like when you hold your wrist for a while then let it go and the circulation flows. that's how my stomach feels. I'm also feeling a little more sleepy

[@CalmVibesVee]

When my patients are struggling with pain & anxiety I hold on to their forearm and breath deep with them. It usually helps get on top of the anxiety before an attack that would need a drug. An anxious life makes one more at risk for Alzheimer’s disease. So stressful for the brain. We gotta keep up with all our emotional coping skills, exercise, and watch our blood glucose. Stay calm thru challenge everyone : ) Breath deep. 😌

[@gogirl7382]

with each of my 3 I used breathing and was almost pain free but more likely I could control the pain and remain in control and kept pain in check.

[@kathlynsteinman3599]

My friend, Henry, demonstrated how to do diaphragmatic breathing in a group I was co-leading. It's a great tool!

[@shannonfogarty6204]

I've done similar exercises to this. I have done 4 4 4 and repeat. i have low grade general anxiety and i was told to practice

[@Caitlin11ify]

Hi. Great video. I’m curious as to what benefits the holding of the breath provides? Would it be possible to explain this. Thanks so much.

[@bhampatty1]

Don't understand why it works this way, but on the 4-7-8 technique, it's during the 7-second hold when I feel myself the most relaxed. If I didn't have to breathe again, I could fall asleep right then! Ha!

[@dalerekus]

Slow diaphragmatic breathing reduces stress by triggering the Relaxation Response. Do a search on Relaxation Response.

[@cockeyedoptimista]

​@@bhampatty1 yes, it helps me relax to sleep as well. I think the military use it as a sleeping technique when they are boxed in some uncomfortable situation! It might be just the counting, in part. You're concentrating on these different numbers and it's like counting sheep and you just fall asleep.

[@ColinClutchUp]

Great techniques breathwork brothers

[@anotherunboxingchannelasmr7920]

Oh wow, I was looking for help with breathing properly again after giving birth, since the diaphragm and core is all stretched out!! Also as a singer I realized how I needed to work on this all over again. A different type of strength training!

[@cockeyedoptimista]

Wow, did it help? I didn't know the diaphragm would get stretched out! I never had children: one of my great regrets. And I ended up with abdominal surgery anyway a couple of years ago.

[@ssh3178]

When i was small i would inhale as much as i can and hold it as much as i can then exhale slowly, i was addicted to the feeling it gave me lol and i sang too so that helped with that
