Episode notes
Reflexive Breathing Determines Daily Health
- Reflexive breathing (the pattern you default to 99% of the day) determines daily energy and health more than short breathwork sessions.
- Improving that habitual pattern is the highest leverage change you can make for performance and wellbeing.
Three Pillars Of Efficient Breathing
- Efficient breathing relies on three pillars: nasal breathing, diaphragmatic (low) breathing, and slow respiratory rate.
- These pillars improve cellular oxygen uptake and nervous system regulation, not just subjective calm.
Train Your Reflexive Breath Pattern
- Focus breath training on changing your reflexive pattern, not just 10–20 minute practice sessions.
- Prioritize nasal, slow, diaphragmatic breathing throughout the day to improve energy and health.
