44. James Nestor: Author of Breath

The World’s #1 Personal Development Book Podcast! In this episode, I have the pleasure to interview author James Nestor. James is an author and journalist. His book, Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art, was released in 2020 and was an instant bestseller in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Los Angeles Times, and Sunday London Times. Breath will be translated into more than 30 languages in 2021. Our conversation today explores how the human species has lost the ability to breathe properly over the past several hundred thousand years and is now suffering from a laundry list of problems -- snoring, sleep apnea, asthma, autoimmune disease -- because of it. Nestor talks about his travels around the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren't found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of Sao Paulo. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head.
