Breathing is something most of us take for granted. But the more we’ve looked into it, the more there seems to be to this ostensibly simple practice. You don’t have to search far to find a wide range of advice on breathing – ranging from the obvious, to the counterintuitive, to the downright strange! In this week’s episode, Ben and Tim take a deep dive into Buteyko breathing with one of Australia’s leading practitioners, Brian Firth. Brian’s own struggles with asthma led him to discover Buteyko breathing. As Brian explains, Buteyko is not a breathing technique, but rather a method of re-training yourself to breathe better – for life. Brian takes us through the principles behind the Buteyko methodology and along the way busts some of what he considers the biggest myths about breathing. 5:43 Breath by James Nestor.
