“For breath is life, and if you breathe well you will live long on earth.”
– Sanskrit Proverb
Breathing Exercises Of The Week
We just released a lovely breathing exercise, its a slightly quicker coherence style at 9 breaths per min, super chilled, you can find it here.
Study I've Been Reading This Week:
This week's study is about how our breathing patterns constantly change and how these changes can reveal important information about our emotions and brain activity. For example, the study found that when people are anxious, their breathing becomes faster and more irregular, which can help doctors identify anxiety-related issues. By analyzing these patterns, scientists hope to find new ways to diagnose and treat health problems like anxiety and sleep disorders, and this research could also lead to better health monitoring technologies in the future.

Podcast of the Week
Dr. Eric Goodman is our guest this week, and his podcast has been incredibly popular. Eric shares insights on how important posture is in our daily lives, and as someone who often feels tight and tense, his advice really resonated with me. The episode is full of helpful tips, techniques, and advice. Click here to watch (P.S. There are several exercises demonstrated, so it’s definitely best to watch this one).
Breath Tip Of The Week
Move before you breathe! Often, when I work with clients, they tell me they can’t meditate or sit still. Just this week, I saw a mother yelling at her young son to sit still in the barber’s chair, but the truth is, we’re not meant to be still all the time. Movement is life, and we’re full of energy (or "full of beans," as we say in England). It’s important to release some of that energy, especially before focusing on your breath. So before your next breathing session, take a walk, dance to your favorite song, hit the gym—just get your body moving before lying down to focus on your breath. I wish I had known this years ago. – Mike
