Breath with James Nestor

Your breath is a powerful force of nature. Tune in to this episode with James Nestor, accomplished author, and breathwork expert to find out how to master your breath and unlock countless benefits. In the episode, we discuss James’ experience in his clinical trial of mouth breathing for 10 days and the findings that followed. He explains the problems that arise from long-term mouth breathing and how breathing through your nose is an absolute game-changer. We talk about the development of the mouth, oral posture, and how it can hinder efficient breathing. We give advice on the correct breathing habits to adopt, ways to improve sleep with mouth tape, breathwork techniques, and breathing for your parasympathetic.
