And if we’re laying down, and we’re breathing in certain patterns, then we can also change and alter our spiritual and emotional state as well. So, essentially, somatic breathing is all forms of breathing. But we’re breathing with awareness instead of the lack of awareness or unconscious breathing.

And when we breathe through our mouth, it dries out our saliva, and it damages our oral microbiome. As a result of that, it creates inflammation and dysbiosis in the oral cavity, which then leads to—we know there’s a direct correlation between that and heart disease. And because their aldosterone stays high, their blood pressure is always high, so that now their cardiovascular system is always strained and stressed out.
- And breathing is actually just as predictable as steering your car or controlling your physiology.
- Now, the effect of that is changing our physiology and our physical body.
- We contort our body into different positions, and then we breathe into those positions because, by doing so, it stimulates different organ systems in our body.
- I refer to the breath as the steering wheel of the nervous system.
- So, it’s that master communication system that is informing every cell, tissue, and organ in our body simultaneously, because the fascia is instantly connected through this matrix to every part of us.
- And that would squeeze my heart to pump blood instantly to my arms and legs, and instantly increase blood pressure.

There’s a lot of great memories that we have of us laughing, that memory’s being encoded with our breath. So, breathing changes our chemistry in our body, and it’s also a form of breathwork. When we’re sobbing, if we’re crying, right, a lot of people resist sobbing, but if you leaned into sobbing, that’s actually the fastest way to actually regulate your nervous system. Or when something really emotional happens to them, the worst thing we can do is tell them to stop crying, because crying actually helps the nervous system release the trauma, and not store it in the tissue. When we tell them to suck it up, or suck it back in, right, then now our body has to find a place either in the matrix or in the brain or in the diaphragm to store that emotion.

Because of the everyday onslaught of toxins, it’s time to redefine what detox means and how to do it.

If you think you have a medical problem, consult a licensed physician. So, you know, yoga is actually more of a breathing modality than it is a physical modality. We contort our body into different positions, and then we breathe into those positions because, by doing so, it stimulates different organ systems in our body. And it stimulates our matrix, our myofascial matrix, as well, in those positions. So, it’s quite interesting how yoga actually works. It’s a breathing practice with movement tied into it versus movement with breathing.
Now, if we could get people to slow down the amount that they breathe, then they can actually instantly become more anabolic. By becoming more anabolic, because there’s less calories that are now required for them to function every day, they’re also able to get into a more relaxed state. Now, their body goes into a growth state without consuming more food, but by simply reducing the calorie demands by slowing down how much we breathe. So, little simple things like that just kind of help people understand why it’s important that we breathe, how breathing impacts our overall health.

So, it’s been a really fun ride these last four or five years, just understanding how breath is so impactful to our overall health and wellness. Yeah, I think it’s so overlooked and so catastrophic to our health. One of the reasons is because many times, people who have apnea, before they’re diagnosed, they end up being mouth breathers.

And these are ceremonies that we take people through where we use the breath as medicine, and create an altered state for people. And what that does is it allows them, you know, to come face to face with whatever trauma they’ve stored in their body, and work on releasing it. So just keep in mind that any trauma that we’ve experienced, the first respondent is the breath.
- Obesity, resistant weight loss, diabetes, fatigue, mitochondria dysfunction, how toxins are causing brain health issues, dementia, even, aging as well.
- Whether it’s sleeping with mouth tape at night so that we breathe through our nose, or using alternate nostril breathing to calm ourselves down or even increase our focus, our breath is where our health and wellness truly begins.

One of the things that people should probably note about breathing is that we often overbreathe, so the average person takes way too many breaths per day. And breathing is one of the most important metabolic activities that we do. So, every day we burn about 1200 calories, just in normal respiration, just in normal breathing.
