Get High On Your Own Breath (Warning!)

Spiritual Teacher and Bestselling Author, Biet Simkin shares with us her invigorating breath technique. Biet teaches us that when we die a chemical is released which is believed to feel akin to the high of taking DMT and that some people have experienced this euphoric feeling simply through doing Biet's breath work. Want to get high naturally? Try this and let me know in the comments below what you experience.

That was wonderful, thank you! In my work as a hypnotherapist, any clients who are wanting to avoid using drugs or alcohol are amazed to find that using the breath and the mind together can elicit similar benefits without the downsides. It's not escapism - it's enhancement of life!

[@theresagagnon9162]

Yesss totally agreed🫁😌⚛️👁

[@PerformanceThroughHealth]

This is just very similar to hypnosis. It's all working through suggestion and self-suggestion. Hyperventilation induces a trance-like state. The rest of the experience is then up to interpreting the unconscious from the frame of intention. Similar to psychedelics.

[@KelleyKat]

@@PerformanceThroughHealth Perspective is everything! Some people need help moving out of unhelpful trance states.

Hey Kelley! I am looking for a looking for a new hypno, - are you based online at all as i’m located in Toronto Ontario.?. I know Hypnose probably better in person but just curious. we both love Russell‘s channel so thought to reach out when I saw your first comment here. Thank you. - care.

[@zachariahhanson1792]

Hello I'm a recovering schizophrenic who used to use psychedelics and really valued the experiences / states-of-mind they provided. I have only used psychedelics once in like two years now. I always think about whether I could use them again. Is the technique shown in this video a safe-ish way for me to return to the Psychedelic space, would you say? Peace

[@pierskure4505]

Absolutely mind blowing , many years ago when I experimented with smoking despite being fit and active I made the comment that I thought part of the reason people get addicted is that it forces you to inhale and concentrate on your breathing. Now I believe this is true, it’s not so much a chemical addiction but a physical one and this and other breathing techniques could be used to stop smoking.

[@GoldenHeart-8]

I tried it and did get the DMT type feeling after 3 rounds and passed out and hit my face on the ground! Be very careful doing this breathing method and make sure you are surrounded by an army of pillows all around you or have someone around ready to catch you when you pass out. This is very different than the wim hoff breathing that I do everyday, it's very powerful and I repeat be ready because you will pass out if done properly. I learned the hard way.

[@jackiegrant410]

I also do the WIM everyday, just about to watch this video, just thought that I’d check reviews first. ❤️🚿

[@eva.eva.]

Hey, I have a question about this breathwork. I did it, and it was way more intense than wim as you said. I almost passed out but when I was in a different state of consciousness, my thoughts were scattered and paranoid. My intuition tells me it was too intense for me and I should go slower? I guess I’m wondering why I don’t feel warm and fuzzy when I’m getting high on breath.

[@GoldenHeart-8]

@@eva.eva. I tried searching about it but no results. My take on it is it stimulates some energy pathway going upwards and if you do it right within a short time it takes you out of your body. What you experience as chaotic is just going through the messy unconscious mind jungle. Because of the lack on info around it and how it makes me feel I choose to only do it occasionally when I need a boost.

[@eva.eva.]

@@GoldenHeart-8 thank you , what a lovely response. I did it again today and it wasn’t as scary. I also tried just doing it cross legged so I’m not coming fully up and this was much more gentle. Lifting up is too intense.

[@ibeswimmin]

I watched this recently and I can't express enough how this has not just helped me, but saved me. Not a plea for attention (though that makes it sound more like a possible plea for attention) but I've very seriously wanted to die for a very long time. I convinced myself that if God exists, (however you want to define god), he definitely hates me, and I've been addicted to drugs. Doing these exercises opened things in my mind that I didn't know I had the capacity for. For the first time, I feel a personal relationship with something. I just did it now though and had a pretty terrifying full psychedelic trip (lasted seconds but was intense, like I was panicking). Instantly, I've gotten over this work problem I had today and I feel compelled to apologize for something rather than being defensive. I'll comment this on here 'cause I thought she deserves to know stuff like this because I appreciate it But yeah, this stuff is no joke

[@getoutofbed4684]

I thought I was in another dimention, I thought was in the show with them for a few seconds. Ive done years of Wim Hof and been to his events but this was intense. With Wim Hof you get more of a feel good opiate like high but this was more of an uncomfortable hallucinogenic experience where you get that anxiety but afterward it felt good. I was very surprised how quickly it worked as well. Thank you!

Russell, I hope you see this comment. I sincerely appreciate your “yes and” approach to acknowledging the scientific/rational understanding of this exercise. As a “man of science,” I often see this perspective dismissed, which makes one feel like they have to let go of something they aren’t ready to let go of.

[@colortekpainting2828]

Breath work preparation and intention is key! Set and setting! Doing it lying down. Or sitting in a comfortable position with pillows surrounding you. Never push yourself in the beginning , breathwork is about strengthening the connection between mind and body 🙏 many of us have become so disconnected from our own bodies -Listen to the body. Clear the mind and let go of all thought. Just feel. If something feels too much- pump the brakes and pause or slow down. Don’t push yourself until you’ve practiced and feel confident and ready for the next challenge. Breathwork is absolutely transformative and is truly about finding the self, through the self, with the self 🙏 don’t give up, stick with it- you will not be the same! ❤

For real, I didn't know where I was. Now, a few minutes later, I remember how I actual thought "Wait, what? I'm somewhat on the floor? What am I doing right now, I can't remember." ... that was really spooky but impressive in a positive way. Like my brain or consciousness had been rebooted. Round 2, 3 and 4 unfortunately only gave me massive headaches for a few seconds :/ But I will try again later. I normally skip videos with things like "warning" or "too intense" or stuff like that in the title since they are pure clickbait. But this short 11-minutes-clip is next level!
