This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, we’re diving into the power of breathwork for daily practice with breath expert and fitness professional Josh Seiler. After a long battle with a mysterious lung infection that left doctors stumped, Josh turned to breathwork and oxygen therapy—and fully healed. Now, he teaches others how to use the breath to regulate stress, improve focus, and support overall health.

In this episode, Josh shares simple, science-backed techniques to shift out of anxiety, increase mental clarity, and even enhance athletic performance. We also talk about how the way you breathe (nose vs. mouth, belly vs. chest) impacts your nervous system, immune function, and energy levels.

Special Offer: Josh offers a free 7-day trial to his online wellness community, where members can kickstart their journey with a 3-day sustainability challenge designed to spark real, lasting change: https://www.skool.com/breathemovebreathe-3218/about
