Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art

 Recently finished James Nestor's Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art  and I recommend it highly. This book literally changed the way I live. Some of the changes include:

- I no longer breath through my mouth. One simple change that almost anyone can do. 

- Now during commercials while listening to podcasts or watching TV I do breath exercises. Either six count inhales and exhales or lengthened exhales. I also hope to start the practice of doing breath exercises every morning and night.

- Now I chew gum for a few hours a day. Read the book to find out why

Also sometime in the next twelve months I hope to do a class in the Wim Hoff Method. I may have said this before but writing it here publicly I may subconsciously work harder to make that happen.

The book also has an appendix of the different breath exercises discussed. I'll be sure to go back to re-read that section periodically.

And as if on que to demonstrate the power of the breath - an article on how breathing can get rid of hangovers.
