À propos de cet audio

A New York Times Best Seller

A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020

Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR

“A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe - and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” (Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic and Eat Pray Love)

No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly.

There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: Take air in, let it out, repeat 25,000 times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe.

Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.

Captivating adventures interestingly brought. Must seek further knowledge for an in depth understanding of the healing mechanism of the various breathing techniques. I was especially interested in the autoimmune healing potential. But James sadly glazed by it.

provides a strong foundation without a rugged roof

I learned a lot, things I needed to hear is in this book. After listening to it when it came out to now as I am leaving a short review, I think about what I have learned daily. As a mouth breather, I am practicing some techniques from this book, and I am enjoying doin so.

Read/listen to this book, you won’t regret the important information, even if you’re fine with your breathing, maybe you can notice someone mouth breathing and point them to this book.

What a great book.

I found instant relief, enlightenment, and overall peace, as I began to do the excercises and became aware of my breathing patterns!

Everyone should read this book. I mean that not as a cliche but literally. Especially doctors and dentists. It is incredible how much knowledge was completely disregarded for no apparent reason by modern biology/science. It doesn't seem to make sense. Yet everything James Nestor describes in this book is backed up and proven by Study after study that he quotes in the book. No unsubstantiated claims. Everything has eveidence presented. This is the new Science and more scientists are begining to realize this. I learned more than I ever thought possible. So will you.

You even get many guided techniques for you to follow along with and practice, included at the end of the audiobook version for free.

Wow. Incredible how much I learned

I appreciated everything after the forth Chapter so much! Even the thank you at the end were inspiring to listen to. I was referred to your book through Mark Rashid's books on horsemanship, specifically Nature in Horsemanship.

I loved your informative stories! Your own studies and experiences were so relatable! I also loved hearing the hard work others have put in, and being informed of so many amazing studies.

Such a great book once you get through how and why humans lungs and sinuses are the way they are. That part of the science is a little more faith based in my opinion. Thankfully it didnt cheapen my opinion of the writing to much, and I continued on!

The rest of the book was life changing...so helpful for my healing journey! Thank you!

I needed to be honest about the beginning though ,that's what I'd want🥰

Blessings
Tania
