Life With Breath: Iq + Eq = New You
Life With Breath is a journey in discovering the mind-body relationship that is linked through breath and how this serves as a basis for reducing stress, improving health and well-being, building resilience, improving performance AND transforming negative habitual patterns of behavior. Specifically, yoga breathing. Traditionally called, Pranayama.Breathing rates and patterns are influencing our biochemistry, biomechanics, physiology & psychology. In the yoga tradition, breath regulation (or pranayama) is the tool by which we “yoke” or unite the body with the mind. This unity between the body and mind create a state of coherence whereby thoughts and emotions are balanced. When in a coherent state, the body is in a place of homeostasis. With some basic knowledge of our body and mind’s hardware and software, we can begin to retain the body and mind back to its’ natural state.As Dr. Andrew Weil says, “Improper breathing is a common cause of ill health.” Dysfunctional breathing patters and rates have become problematic for both child and adults and can be linked to many chronic illness and stress-related illnesses. A Life With Breath provides the reader with an explanation on why’s and how’s yoga breathing is so essential to our health and well-being. Armed with new scientific research and knowledge, we begin to provide tools and strategies for mindfully breathing throughout the day. The reader learns a breathing and mindfulness practice daily to start them on the road of living a “life with breath.” The breathing practice begins retraining the body with healthful breathing rates and patterns to improve brain, heart and autonomic nervous system function. In a calmer state, the awareness exercise affords us the opportunity to explore thoughts, emotions and behaviors we’d like to transform into habits that support our truest sense of self. Throughout the book, I’m revealing the art, science & application of mindful breathing as lifestyle medicine in daily fitness and exercise, at work to improve executive functioning or reduce stress from a particularly active day, brain breaks to balance the left & right hemispheres of the brain, techniques to fall asleep and reduce insomnia, sequences to improve various chronic health conditions and so much more. A “life with breath” is a journey into re-uniting oneself with oneself. It’s a self-care routine to live in harmony with the body’s natural cycles and rhythms for optimal health and well-being. Life With Breath includes 30 days of daily practices and breathing exercises that serve as a guide and self-care routine.Imagine that tomorrow morning you wake up feeling absolutely wonderful. You gently stretch your arms and smile as you think about the day ahead. You feel relaxed, refreshed and full of energy. You open the window and take a deep breath. You are filled with gratitude for your life, your family and friends and the wonders of the natural world. Life is good. This can be your life if you choose it. Choosing it means being willing to examine the parts of ourselves that have been unwilling to implement healthy lifestyle changes that will support living the life we desire. It starts with one simple breath.A guided video program of the 30-day plan can be purchased on the Shop page of Ed’s website.Join me as we discover YOUR “life with breath”.

A simple yet revolutionary approach to improving your body’s oxygen use, increasing your health, weight loss, and sports performance—whether you’re a recovering couch potato or an Ironman triathlon champion. With a foreword by New York Times bestselling author Dr. Joseph Mercola.Achieve more with less effort: The secret to weight loss, fitness, and wellness lies in the most basic and most overlooked function of your body—how you breathe. One of the biggest obstacles to better health and fitness is a rarely identified problem: chronic over-breathing. We often take many more breaths than we need—without realizing it—contributing to poor health and fitness, including a host of disorders, from anxiety and asthma to insomnia and heart problems.In The Oxygen Advantage, the man who has trained over 5,000 people—including Olympic and professional athletes—in reduced breathing exercises now shares his scientifically validated techniques to help you breathe more efficiently. Patrick McKeown teaches you the fundamental relationship between oxygen and the body, then gets you started with a Body Oxygen Level Test (BOLT) to determine how efficiently your body uses oxygen. He then shows you how to increase your BOLT score by using light breathing exercises and learning how to simulate high altitude training, a technique used by Navy SEALs and professional athletes to help increase endurance, weight loss, and vital red blood cells to dramatically improve cardio-fitness.Following his program, even the most out-of-shape person (including those with chronic respiratory conditions such as asthma) can climb stairs, run for a bus, or play soccer without gasping for air, and everyone can achieve: Easy weight loss and weight maintenance Improved sleep and energy Increased concentration Reduced breathlessness during exercise Heightened athletic performance Improved cardiovascular health Elimination of asthmatic symptoms, and more.With The Oxygen Advantage, you can look better, feel better, and do more—it’s as easy as breathing.
