James Nestor’s Breath Techniques

If you like rhythm, then try 4,8,8, letting go breath.

Make it a habit and see the difference over time.💤💤💤

Namaste

    It was Dr Weil, in around 2009, who taught me how to breathe and relax. Within 3 months practice, I could drop my high BP by up to 40 points (by 5 minutes deep breathing).

        I tried it last night and it (or was it the trypophan in the turkey? 😉 ) worked wonderfully – slept very well. 🙂
