AS HEARD ON STEVEN BARTLETT'S 'DIARY OF A CEO'
There is nothing more essential to our health and wellbeing 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.
In Breath, a book that has changed countless lives, James Nestor travels the world to discover the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices, discovering that if we make even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale, we can:
Jump-start athletic performanceReduce anxiety and stress, and boost productivityHalt snoring, allergies, asthma and autoimmune diseaseEase headaches and sinus problems
None of this should be possible, and yet it is. Drawing on thousands of years of ancient wisdom and 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.
'Who would have thought something as simple as changing the way we breathe could be so revolutionary for our health, from snoring to allergies to immunity? A fascinating book, full of dazzling revelations' Dr Rangan Chatterjee

Breath
An excellent book and eye-opening to say the least. The importance of breath is underrated in our culture in general so this is very educational.

I don’t understand not having references to the chapters. They are all called track# so you can basically not do a highlight unless you write it down somewhere else. It would have been easier to just called them as the chapters at least.
