Finding Mastery with Dr. Michael Gervais

CHAPTER

The Importance of Breathing Practice

Breathing is the first movement of the spine. It's not walking, it's not crawling, it's breathing. If you're finding that your neck is hurting, ask yourself, can I breathe in this position? Or is there a position where I might have better access to my physiology? And suddenly the world is your oyster. One of the concepts I love is this sort of one rep max breath. Get into a position where you think you can move more air in. Just get into a better position. Notice, I didn't teach you or coach you. I didn't say anything, but prove it to me.
