This DAILY BREATHING TECHNIQUE Will Transform Your Body & Mind TODAY! | James Nestor

[@Hui789]

The video describes several breathing techniques: 1. Deep belly breathing - He talks about filling your belly first with air before expanding your chest. This is the natural and full body way of breathing that helps maximize oxygen intake. 2. Slowing down your breathing rate - He encourages taking slower, deeper breaths to relax. Taking 5-7 second breaths in and out helps stimulate the parasympathetic nervous system which calms the body. 3. Turning inhalations into exhalations and vice versa - He mentions reversing the breath where the inhalation feels like an exhalation and the exhalation feels like an inhalation. This mental switch can help one let go of tension. 4. Box breathing - He describes a 4 part breathing exercise where you breathe in for 4 counts, hold for 4 counts, breathe out for 4 counts and hold for 4 counts, then repeat. This structured pattern helps create a rhythm that calms the mind. 5. Morning breaths - He talks about taking 10-20 deep breaths first thing in the morning to energize and clear the mind for the day ahead. These full breaths help maximize oxygen intake when the body needs it most. In summary, the video focuses on techniques like deep belly breathing, slowing the breath, structured breathing patterns, and morning breaths to help relax, energize and build mindfulness around one's breathing. The key is to take full, deep breaths using the full capacity of your lungs.

[@johnmpjkken251]

I totally believe that the slower or less you can breath, the longer you will live and the healthier you will be throughout your life. My family doctor and heart doctor both are always amazed at my age and health. I'm in my 85th yr. and going into my 86th in two months. My doctors say that I look and motivate as if I was in my mid sixties. Years ago I told my family doctor, whose nationality is Indian, that I have always breathed very slowly and sometimes even stopped until I noticed that I needed to and had to take in one good breath. I believe that it slows down your body's function to a very minimum which also is a suspension of time for your body's overall function. This I thought was why I was aging so slowly. The doctor stood back just stared in thought and was processing what I said. I also stated that this slower body function was somewhat synonymous with India's Guru's life practices. They also live longer and healthier lives. Also eating much less but healthier food more easily digestible can also help your overall health. I might mention that I also am a highly spiritual person. When alone, I very often spend a lot of time meditating on my past and present life and do a personal evaluation to see my shortcomings and needed priorities which is a way to better plan my life.

If you are reading this at night, you should get some sleep, and don't stress about everything going on in the world, or what you are going through. Don't dwell on things from the past, don't stress on your future. Just live your life, because you only get one. Do whatever makes you happy, not what other people want from you. For me, I'm gonna wake up tomorrow morning, get some exercise, and cherish life for the amazing blessing that it is. I hope you do the same and have an amazing day as well!

Just started this and am so glad someone's getting this out there. Besides having meditated for 45 years, I've lived nearly my whole life at 8,000' and spend a lot of time at up to over 14,000'. When hiking and climbing, you can use different breathing patterns like gears on a bike. Also, at high altitude, the body tends to automatically shut down non-essential functions, even superfluous thought. Some of my earliest experiences of pure consciousness devoid of the thought process were at high altitude. Now it's my default state.

You just reminded me that my asthma disappeared too under similar circumstances.

Slow breathing became my regular breathing pattern i think. Some time afterwards my asthma disappeared, I'm not sure how long it toko because this all happened decades ago. But your post just made me realize that the end of my asthma may have been directly connected to that breathing technique which I just naturally fell into as a kid to prevent asthma attacks.

A hack I've done to nose breathe is to take a small sip of water and then hold in mouth for a long time; like while I take a shower. Gets my body used to breathing thru nose. And OMG on the chewing! I've always been quite thin due to health issues, but my parents would ridicule me if they saw one cheek full and the other not. I literally would get fist smacked by my father for not eating on both sides of my mouth at same time. Dental issues were part of my health problems and often eating on one side, hurt too much. But eating next to a child abuser wasn't comfortable either. Great interview!

I've watched a few interviews with James I really love the guy. he seems so friendly and so nice and sincere, you can feel it radiating off him as a genuine compassionate human being and he doesn't seem proud or self entitled at all he s sensible and humble. Seriously like and admire this guy I want to say it's early days and I'm part way through his book but to second about how nasal breathing helps athletic performance the outcome is PHENOMENAL. Like Wtf I'm not even tired !??? it's insane absolutely unbelievable I've tried it walking steadily up hills and running for long distances or going on few mile walks and when i nasal breath it's almost like no effort was required whatsoever so I get there and I'm ready to go. no panting no sweating no just..fine. I believe it's also helping with my flexibility in stretching and yoga too I guess it must really open up your cells to get oxygenated almost instantaneously. Also it definatley makes me warmer I can feel my body retaining warmth or actually heating up slightly so for sure he's onto something. Transformative? Definatley you'll be capable of a lot lot more than you think if you try breathing correctly !

[@debveve2839]

I have had dry mouth at night while sleeping and dental decay for decades but never realized how the two are connected until now. Last two nights after watching this podcast, I've slept with my mouth taped closed. I thought it might feel claustrophobic or anxiety-producing but I found it's actually quite the opposite. I slept better, and had an overall sense of peace that is hard to describe. And I noticed I had saliva in my mouth, and properly moist teeth all night long. I was also able to sleep on my back, which I cannot usually do because without tape, sleeping on my back finds me snorting abruptly and awakening rudely, feeling like I'm swallowing my very dry tongue down my parched throat. But with the tape I just breathe, no matter what position I'm in. Sometimes in the early morning hours, I get an anxious feeling in the pit of my stomach, like a mini anxiety attack. This didn't happen the last two nights while wearing tape. I wonder if it was from parasympathetic calming, or proper regulation of oxygen/CO2 levels, or some combo of it all. Whatever, I felt more peaceful and didn't have that knot in the stomach feeling, like an adrenaline rush when someone pulls out abruptly in front of me in traffic. I wonder if in the early morning hours my cortisol levels rise towards awakening, which I think is normal, but which for me seem to go overboard and cause an anxious feeling. I must learn more. But I do know the last two mornings after sleeping with my mouth taped shut, I had no anxious episodes, no "kicked in the gut" panic sensations. I kept the tape on my mouth in the morning after waking, and did my usual meditation and stretching routines, altogether about 12 hours wearing the tape. And it was great - very peaceful. Sometimes I couldn't even tell the tape was there - it felt so natural. Thank you Rangan and James, for sharing this important information!

It's about an inch wide, and I cut a piece long enough to cover my lips, and apply it horizontally so my lips stay together all night and I can't breathe at all through my mouth. Otherwise my mouth dries out. It seems to work fine. Stays on all night. I can even peel it back to take a sip of water and then stick the tape back down and it does stay. I may see if I can find all cotton medical tape, if it even exists. I imagine what I'm using might be some kind of polyester or nylon or something like that. I'm not sure, as the packaging is missing - just the roll of tape was there in my medicine cabinet.

Great Interview ! Breathing is our most important bodily function that is subject to our direct control. It is also the most neglected, underestimated, and abused. Our body rids itself of more waste products during respiration than it does by sweating, urinating, and defecating combined. I have some videos on kundalini breath based on pranayama. Prana means breath, wind, life, vitality, energy, or strength. Ayama means length, expansion, stretching, or restraint.

[@donnalarkin9216]

I began using the tape on my mouth as soon as I read about it. In the past I would fall asleep without an issue but would wake to use the bathroom, and as James noted, have to drink more water after waking at that time....usually 2:30 to 3:30. I would crawl back to bed feeling exhausted and then lay awake for 2 to 3 hours! This happened for at least 15 yrs anywhere from 3 to 5 nights out of the week. My cortisol levels were way too high at night and too low during the day....opposite to what they should have been. I had bought myself a wedge pillow to elevate my upper body to help with snoring and hoping it would help with my sleep too, but until I began using the tape my sleep had remained somewhat the same. I now tell as many people as I can about how my sleep has turned around. I still will have to use the bathroom most nights but remarkably I fall right back to sleep without the need to drink any more water. This has been such a blessing at the age of 55 where many women experience this problem. I now feel like my cortisol level has regulated, I feel better with all that deep sleep, I wake and remember having dreams and feel functional during the day!!! :) The one thing I want to note is that I tried the cloth tape James had suggested and found it to be too irritating to my sensitive skin and was able to find the cloth tape for sensitive skin, usually used for elderly or babies. I cut about a 3 inch piece and it covers the skin on top of my mouth to down below my lower lip....so a bit more then James uses, but you still have the ability out of the corners of the mouth for air....I am still able to talk a little or cough without a problem. Lots to say here, but I can not stress enough how incredible this has been. As a yoga instructor I have been breathing deeper, longer, slower for many years, but after reading his book I am able to take in even more so all the incredible benefits he has presented.

[@4NG3LH34RT2]

basically all i do is sit and inhale as deeply as i can, then exhale as hard as i can while pushing the air out and bending forward so i can use my body structure to squeeze as much air as possible out of my lungs... then instead of counting to ten over and over like carl's technique suggests, i just keep pushing and exhaling and pushing until i cant exhale anymore, then while straightening back upright i will inhale long and hard as deep as possible before repeating the whole process... interrupted only to discharge the secreted phlegm. sounds gross, i know, but i do enjoy and love being able to breathe and so i make this sacrifice and practice these exercises when alone..

It would help a lot if I did not have bleeding in the nostrils, swelling in the nostrils. I was told by a dentist when entering the military that I do NOT have a cleft palate but it also did not completely seal either which causes a lot of my breathing issues. Not only that but when a quack army doc refused to treat my broken neck (it has been properly treated now) but instead put me on a TENS unit full strength it caused formation of bone spurs. The first one was, sure enough, at the join point of the palate and it had to be ground off. The second one was at my wrist no where near where the TENS was applied. The third nearly caused me to become quadriplegic at the broken neck joint. It was removed when the broken neck bone was removed and replaced with a cadaver bone. Held with a plate and four screws. Titanium yay. Army medicine. VA is not much better but all I can afford even with Medicare.

Anyone else’s mouth taped right now watching this in bed?? 😂 This breathing through the nose works. Huge improvements after only 2 days. 💪 Update (the morning after) I managed to keep my mouth taped until 5am until I finally took it off to finish my sleep as I still was waking up breath hungry. What’s interesting though is that I have probably lost at least 2 hours of sleep the last two nights (which isn’t too far from my normal shit sleeps) due to this endeavour I am still coming into the day less tired and no usual desire to have a nap in the afternoon. Have had some moments where my nostrils were so clean and easy to breathe through it was truly awesome. Hard to describe to someone who hasn’t had issues with sinuses their whole life. Being able to easily and clearly breathe through the sinuses all the time would absolutely put a persons potential into another gear. For way too long I did not believe there could be any difference between something as simple as breathing through the mouth or through the nose. Definitely eating crow.

A great interview, thank you both. The art of breathing is not new to me, having been introduced to the Masdasnan teachings on this, reading their literature and attending their workshops. The art of breathing being considered and described as life itself. You can take this knowledge way back to the teachings in the Veden scriptures and the Egyptians. I have been practicing nose breathing consciously for about 20 years now. It is a lovely feeling when you can breath Freely and correctly. Everything l have heard here really resounds with me. All things have to be relearnt when forgotten, and l feel sure bringing this knowledge back into every new generation is Vital, it should be an important part of general education in schools. This is especially important in the present world situation with the big 'C' and the now most mandatory wearing of masks, especially by children as young as 6yrs here in Germany, Austria usw. Europe.

[@barbarafairbanks4578]

Maria - make sure you are getting the right amount of protein for your diet. I was vegan for 5 yrs, but did not realize the importance of high quality protein, especially as we age. Ended up losing muscle tissue, even though I am active and have always exercised. Also was low energy and, per my Son, I was 'skinny fat' i.e., thin but definitely losing muscle structure. I don't know your age, but look at some older folks around you - so many are suffering from sarcopenia (loss of muscle fiber) and don't realize it. They can look thin and appear healthy, in that they are not overweight, but their thin look comes from loss of muscle. Look at the backsides of some elderly folks who are not overweight...perfectly flat! That does not have to be! And it takes a Functional Doctor to point that out and help correct it through diet and lifestyle. Many allopathic M.D's 'treat' symptoms by prescribing pharmeuticals, and tend to ignore diet and healy lifestyle changes for their patients.. Our U.S. recommended protein RDA is so much lower than what we really need as we age. People lose weight on a plant based diet and assume that because they are the 'ideal weight' they are healthy - but beware, that weight loss is mostly muscle mass. Younger people can 'get away' with ignoring their protein needs because their hormones take care of muscle growth and naturally maintaining muscle mass. But we don't have the advantage of these hormones as we age. Just wanted you to be aware, because I was unaware of this for so long, myself. If you want to learn more about protein needs, you can look for Dr. Gabrielle Lyon interviews on YT. She is a board certified Osteopathic doctor- has a PhD in (well I think it's geriatric nutrition, but may be termed differently). And by 'geriatic'- this term (in a 'muscle centric' diet context) applies to the over 40 age group and their increased protein needs if they want to avoid sarcopenia as they age. Dr. Lyon's NYC practice is based on 'muscle centric' medicine. She does believe in the importance of animal protein to maintain muscle mass, but she does not lecture against 'plant based, either. She does have vegan, vegetarian, and plant based diet patients in her practice and she respects that lifestyle and way of eating,, and helps them with food choices to ensure they are meeting their protein needs. She also has a website where one can sign up for her health newsletters, read her blog, etc. I follow her on Instagram, too. Sorry for the length, but you said something about your health and your plant based diet, and I felt that sharing this knowledge with you might help .

I connected the dots to nervous system issues a couple of years ago and now tape at night and consciously try to breathe through my nose. I also use the Keiferfreund app which is great and things are slowly improving. No apnea breathless wake ups for quite some time! My husband however has decided to go the CPAP route as his snoring was so unbearable for me I had to vacate the bedroom! Last year he was diagnosed with hypertension, Hashimotos, suddenly noticed that he eyesight was deteriorating after years of being glasses free, lost his hearing and now using a CPAP machine! In the space of 12 months due to poor sleep he now takes 2 lots of medication and wears hearing aids and has to use glasses. I've noticed he breathes really quickly and joined more dots listening to this podcast because he also eats his food really quickly with minimal chewing. Will definitely be getting James' book!

I did on the third visit and felt such calm…but wasn’t sure how to attain that feeling again, thinking it came from thought control alone.

[@mrsp8999]

I’m so glad I found yoga 30 years ago! I often tell people that if they make only one change, breathe in and out through the nose - just that. Really interesting point about the mandible and chewing. How many adults, through poor dental health, have lost a chewing surface, and therefore can’t swap sides? Another point I’d make is to get people to notice their breathing pattern whilst wearing face masks/coverings. It’s so easy to end up mouth breathing ( more so if you wear glasses, as it’s done to minimise misting) Yet another point I’ve raised in the workplace ( clinical area) these fit tests for correct PPE use a substance that is tasted to show a poor or good seal. I reckon the result of that depends on whether you’re mouth or nose breathing. I can tell you from personal experience, wearing the most protective face masks (icu) causes mouth breathing 100% - and I’m a nose breather

[@hughgurney3022]

This is great stuff, I accidentally found that breathing through the nose before sleeping inproved my resistance to throat infections. I tried to do this initially with one side of my nose completely blocked, so I tried to wash my nasal and sinus with saline solution. Initially I was breathing thro one side of my nose even after a sinus wash. I kept this process going for months, and now I can breath thro both sides of my nose. Even when I get hayfever. Yes I used to run and breath thro my mouth, and tes I do Yoga, and this has enhanced my youa practises.

[@atomicbubble598]

There is more deeper literature on breathing, which I have been tracking for while. It's true, it requires critical observation and experimentation. As a scientist, I can tell you this there is no clear cut study on breathing pattern (and sub-patterns), etc. It requires some sort of device backed by AI to demonstrate the power of breathing.

Dr. Rangan, you are exactly rigfht!!! I studied Hyperbaric therapy (HBOT) and I saw the demonstration of the "Ventilators, which employees Nitric Oxide (NO) which opens the veins and arteries so more oxygen can enter the lungs. The key to getting more oxygen to the blood is deep breathing and holding it under increased pressure, for example, I help by pressing on the diaphragm and I only started doing this a few weeks ago. Only 20% of the breathable air is oxygen so I am going to continue doing this. . . Also, thank you doctor McKeown. There is another reason I do this therapy; ref.

From my experience “ holding” the breath is the major component in repressing trauma. This “ holding” is still taking place in the body. Time frozen bits of “breath holding.Vipassana meditation works by just witnessing the breath, allowing it to relax and do its own thing. After a while the breath slows down and relaxes to its natural rhythm. Then you scan and just observe sensations of the body. This spreads the natural breath to the parts that are still holding. These eventually relax and release the trauma. So rather than change the breath you just allow it to be.

The fine detail is incidental to the persons Intent to Breath, the Intent to Breath more rhythmically and slowly. It is such an important podcast, and to read this book. James is so centred with his comments, all backed up with science. Science satisfies the Western World much more than the East. In the East it is “The Science Of The Obvious”, in the West It is “The Science Of Facts”. Whatever works and enthuses the person is the most important thing. .. By the Science Of The Obvious! I am addressing what science and society calls Subjective. Yet we see the Apple Fall, then we do a rather stupid thing and try to prove it with Newtonian Physics or Quantum Physics. The Point! .. we take the LONG WAY ROUND through intellect / rationalism & Logic to prove something that we already no is TRUTHFUL. through pure Awareness. If this was not the case .. Why do we use the word Placebo in Medicine? .. because we must think at some level that extraordinary healing is going on that we cannot explain, therefore we justify rational science with the word Placebo. Once again a great debate by both of you, wonderful podcast Dr Red Crosby Chiropractor Australia / Zen Suru Kirisuto (Breath Mastery . 4th Dan)

Great. 👍

So, so glad you demonstrated the sleep tape advice. Before that I had literally just reached for the gaffa tape and scissors! Oh dear! I think this video should be put into schools. I’ve been breathing incorrectly my whole life. Thank you for doing this fundamentally important podcast.

Wow full circle I worked with NIAC at USC when I was getting my B.S. Premed Bio Sci degree and worked with Dr. Logan a physicist who ran that department and we worked with the Mayor's Office in L.A. and to hear you mention at Stanford makes me feel like this is full circle because I talk about the breath and how to do it properly in almost every video I do on Love&MoneySecretsTV. Dr. Rangan Chatterjee this is a marvelous episode. It would be great for you to do a follow up video sharing on around Nov 22nd what have you experienced since you started taping your mouth. I might try this just to see if there's a difference. I might be unaware of mouth breathing while asleep. I don't have snoring, respiratory problems but after being hit by an OCTA Bus while bike riding my sleep cycle has totally been thrown off after suffering a TBI, spinal injury and leg injury. Dr. Masaru Emoto did experiments about water and the influence of words spoken, thought and written and how it alters water at the molecular level to change the structure. If Love, Joy or high vining positive energy the frozen water crystals were beautiful geometric snowflake like symmetry. When angry mean hateful words like swastika and hate there was no organized crystals just a jumbled mess. Yes saying appreciation or words of gratitude DOES make a difference on how we digest food.

Thank you! This was very informative and easy to comprehend. My dad taught me to breathe slower for several reasons and as I’ve gotten older I find the benefit. However, due to cancer half of my lung was removed and breathing has been impaired. Bring thus back to me I shall certainly try. The little bit if tape is interesting also, thanks again! Rose

sending you all the best Rose!

I read the book and also started taping the mouth. After a few days of getting used to it, I noticed that I slept better, needed fewer hours of sleep and woke up fitter. I haven't slept any other way since. Thanks a lot.

all breathing resides in Christ who gives us breath to breathe.

Thank you for that quote Ian. I thought: He also said sickness starts in the astral body, in the region of feelings, desires and wishes, antipathy and sympathy. But then - these are of the soul, the rhythmic system of the Heart and the Lungs, the middle region. Do you know whether he suggested some deep-breathing excercise? A Dr of Chiropractic, Osteopathic and Naprapathy said I was NOT to do Dr A Weil's calming/ sleep excercise of inbreath with 4 counts, holding breath for 7 and outbreath for 8 counts. She said never to stop breathing, but without discussion. My Feldenkrais pedagogue also dissuaded from holding one's breath. It seemed to work well. I don't know. Do you?

@@henryunrau4136 you are not Fanny saying non sense like that. Your Christ couldn’t save their brain. How come would he save their soul?

[@henryunrau4136]

Gabrielle, Jesus wants everyone to know that He created them / us and therefore, yes, he can and does save our brain, breath and everything else we are , have and know exists. He is the Son of God and designed the human body to breathe, the blood to flow and us to live. He, not I, invites everyone to believe in Him and learn all that He has to offer.
