Episode notes

Quick brain is a series of bite size brain hacks for busy people who want to learn faster and achieve more. This week, we look at how breathing can help you cope with stress in real life scenarios. One under stress, we lose about one third of our mental acuity. So doing something like practising active breath work, or sitting in a cold plunge for a couple minutes a day can help you practise with stress safely.

How do you breathe during stressful times?

That might seem like a strange question. After all, breathing is something we do automatically. But how you breathe can change the physiological response you have to a situation. Practicing breathwork can help you experience stress safely so that you can learn to modulate your breath during any scenario life throws at you.

To talk more about this important topic, I’m happy to have Chuck McGee III on our show today. Chuck is a breathwork instructor who has dedicated his life to helping people discover the power conscious breathwork can have on their lives and health.

Your physiology affects your psychology. Controlled breathing can help alleviate chronic pain, reduce stress, manage depression, and lower anxiety. Listen in, as Chuck walks you through several exercises and gives you practical tips on how to make conscious breathwork a habit.
