Download or read book Breath Taking written by Lorin Roche and published by Rodale Books. This book was released on 2001 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breath Taking offers an easy and provocative program that uses human instinct as the basis for maximizing the 20,000 breaths we take every day. Through a series of 15-second, 1-minute, and 5-minute breathing techniques, author Dr. Lorin Roche helps readers tap into the basic human instincts: eating, exploring, homing, resting, playing, grooming, mating, hunting, self-expression, and healing. Accessing the hunting instinct can increase confidence and aggression levels -- key elements to a successful business interview. Nerves can be calmed before public speaking by tapping into the resting instinct. And the mating instinct can improve intimacy -- and even increase the intensity of orgasm. The 60 techniques in Breath Taking have been developed through work with vocal coaches, yoga instructors, athletic coaches, divers, Lamaze instructors, and others who use breath to enhance awareness, promote relaxation, improve performance, and focus concentration. The simple, effective exercises can be practiced anywhere, making Breath Taking the most practical guide to using breath to improve the quality of life.

Download or read book Breath written by James Nestor and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020 Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR “A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe—and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic and Eat Pray Love No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels 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 São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe. Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is. 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. You will never breathe the same again.
