Breath with James Nestor

Your breath is a powerful force of nature. Tune in to this
episode with James Nestor, accomplished author, and breathwork
expert to find out how to master your breath and unlock countless
benefits. In the episode, we discuss James’ experience in his
clinical trial of mouth breathing for 10 days and the findings
that followed. He explains the problems that arise from long-term
mouth breathing and how breathing through your nose is an
absolute game-changer. We talk about the development of the
mouth, oral posture, and how it can hinder efficient breathing.
We give advice on the correct breathing habits to adopt, ways to
improve sleep with mouth tape, breathwork techniques, and
breathing for your parasympathetic.
