Yoga Therapy Hour with Amy Wheeler Breathing Optimization with Michael Hutchinson
Michael Hutchinson has been studying the breath in the KYM tradition for over 4 decades both experientially and scientifically. He has recently written a new book called Breath for Health, using the main tenants of the teachings from TKV Desikachar, to express how to breathe simply and effectively. Amy interviews Michael and discovers that he offers a rare glimpse into how we can use breath for as little as 10-minutes per day and it will change our lives. Michael knows this because he has felt the impact of simple breath techniques within himself for decades, taught others and observed how different breathing techniques impact the human system, and read the research on respiratory physiology. In the end, he shows us how the simple breathing techniques taught be Desikachar are shown to be effective for health, healing and beyond.
