How can awareness of breath lead to happiness, inner peace and even liberation? You will love how we are always given opportunities to connect with our breath and stay present.

One of most fundamental and common breathing practices within yoga is the long, slow, deep breathing pattern. In a number of studies of yoga practice, slow yogic breathing has been a practice that beginners often immediately begin to adopt and benefit from in their daily lives as a valuable coping and health strategy. It has also made its way into modern Western medicine as a fairly well know relaxation practice referred to as slow breathing, abdominal breathing or belly breathing. Biomedical scientific research on slow breathing has begun to reveal the substantial impact it has on both mental and physical functioning. On the physical level, it has direct impact on the autonomic nervous system, where it can reduce sympathetic activity, blood pressure and heart rate and increase heart rate variability. It can also change characteristics of respiratory functioning including changes in the chemoreflex response and improvement in gas exchange. Slow breathing research is also showing direct impact on the central nervous system, with positive changes in stress, emotion and pain regulation. Clinical research is beginning to show its efficacy in disorders such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and hypertension. Some of Life With Breath Podcast Transcript 05:43 Welcome back everyone. Today we have the amazing Sat Bir Khalsa with us. Without any further ado, ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Sat Bir Khalsa. Welcome, Sat Bir. Thanks very much. It's a pleasure to be here. 16:08 So, in today's world 2021, we see various different illnesses that seem to be stress related, disruption to the nervous system, disruption to the natural rhythm of the human organism, and you've been able to create psychophysics physiological platforms to bring people back into balance. What does that look like today? What's the normal client that you see today? What's the prescription that you generally are prescribing right off the bat to folks? 16:48 Well, you know, I'm not, I'm actually not a clinician, so I don't do prescription. But, you know, if, if, if people ask me the general questions, so you know, so, you know, how did you ever work? And what's it good for? I really have to say that the most important and immediate benefit that people experience from yoga practice is management of their stress, their stress tolerance, their stress, coping ability, their resilience, to stress, their ability to bounce back. And that really is is is of most value. And that's because, you know, we are in modern society undergoing a real epidemic of chronic stress. And chronic stress goes really deep. I mean, it is the basis and a strong contributor to many, many disorders and diseases, especially mental health conditions. And so our modern society really doesn't have much of a solution to that, except for, you know, pharmaceuticals. And Yoga is a behavioral practice that allows people to prevent that stress and prevent the onset of these types of disorders. So that is really a critical thing is that, that when you practice these techniques, it's prevention, it's really allowing you to cope effectively, it's making you a better functioning human being. And that's going to reduce your disease burden. It's also going to on the other side, it's going to improve positive psychological states, it's going to improve your state of well being your your comfort, your quality of life, and it even to some degree, your spirituality. 27:54 Why do you think that out of all the senses the breath seems to have the most profound effect on the mind and body? 28:08 Well, that's a great question. It's a great question why is it that we can control the breath and then influence our internal state and this whole idea of influencing an internal state is you know, a form of self regulation, the ability to through these yogic practices to control our internal state. And you know, pranayama is just one of those techniques we do the same thing when we meditate do we do the same thing when we do asanas but I suppose one thing about the the breathing pattern is is that we know even in mammals that there's obviously a very strong connection between internal psychological state and our breathing pattern. So we know when we get fearful our breath rate increases becomes more shallow we know that when we're sleeping, our breath slows down we know that when we become passionate about something our breath takes on a different breathing pattern crying is associated with a whole you know very different breathing patterns. So its basically driving the system in reverse.

Breath control in physical and mental health as it enhances performance both on and off the field. About Michael Miletic Advancing the field of brain-body-mind science for your best health. Dr. Michael Miletic is a former Olympic athlete and a prominent physician specializing in clinical neuroscience and integrative metabolic medicine. Dr. Miletic evaluates the brain, mind, and body and brings the latest science and evidence-based treatments to optimize your health. He specializes in athletes, executives, and adolescents looking to reach their full potential. Dr. Miletic’s comprehensive training and evidence-based research have enabled him to understand something many healthcare providers do not: approaches that treat the body without addressing the mind are limited in their effectiveness. Getting to know you, your life experiences, and the way you think and feel is thus a critical aspect of the care you receive from Dr. Miletic. Dr. Miletic developed “The Miletic Method” as a new model of mental health treatment, brain functioning, performance, longevity, and health. The model consists of looking at the brain/body as a series of interrelated bidirectional systems influencing and influenced by each other in ways specific to each patient. Understanding the intricacies of this allows us to approach each patient in an individualized way. The method then involves integrating all of the physical measures through history taking and specialized lab tests with psychology and neuroscience in a way that provides a new understanding of mental states and psychiatric diagnoses. Some of the aspects of your health that are measured and evaluated include hormone balance, micronutrients levels, neurotransmitter levels, gut health, inflammation, stress, immune response, life events and trauma. Based on an initial assessment of your physical and mental health and your personal health goals, Dr. Miletic will provide a personalized treatment plan. As he monitors your body’s response to this plan, he will adapt and optimize treatment until the desired results are achieved. Dr. Miletic earned his medical degree from the University of Western Ontario Medical School and completed his residency in Psychiatry at the Detroit Medical Center. He is Board Certified in Psychiatry, Neurology and Metabolic Medicine. He is also certified in Psychoanalysis and serves as an Advanced Fellow in Metabolic Medicine. He is licensed in both the United States and Canada, and his practice is based in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan.

No matter what you eat, how active, or how health-conscious you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. Our most essential function has been overlooked by science, undervalued by doctors, and neglected by everyone else. Luckily, as James Nestor reveals in his new book BREATH: The New Science of a Lost Art, cutting-edge science is revolutionizing our understanding of this missing pillar of health. As an author and journalist for Outside, Scientific American, The Atlantic, and more, covering science and extreme sports, Nestor was driven to answer seemingly simple questions he couldn’t find in any medical textbook. He wanted to understand why he and 90% of the modern population has crooked teeth? Why are humans the only species on the planet that snores and suffers from myriad respiratory maladies like asthma and allergies? Why are these problems increasing every year? The answer is in how we breathe. Not since Michael Pollan’s Omnivore’s Dilemma has a book been so smart, so well- researched, so compelling in explaining the science of something right in front of us, yet so misunderstood and overlooked in modern health. Your bad teeth, your blood pressure, your weight, your sleep, and your immune system are all compromised because of how you breathe. Nestor, the brilliant mind hailed by the Wall Street Journal for his “fascinating, informative, exhilarating” writing, set out on a decade-long quest to find out where our breathing went wrong—and how to fix it. Over the past few millennia, shifting diets and lifestyles have changed the human head: shrunk our mouths, flattened our faces, plugged our noses, and collapsed our airways. As a species, we’ve lost the ability to breathe correctly. Nestor found scientists and renegade respiratory researchers who are right now diagnosing and developing ways to reverse this damage. This group is rediscovering methodologies from ancient cultures to restore our breathing, and in return, transform our health. Nestor practiced these breathing techniques himself to understand them from the inside. He even enlisted in a 21-day Stanford University experiment to have his nasal cavities plugged and had his mouth taped shut in an effort to test if the pathways through which we breathe affect our health. (They certainly do.) This experiment, and others, ultimately helped Nestor cure decades of respiratory impairment that plagued him since childhood. Making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance, rejuvenate internal organs, halt snoring, allergies, asthma, and autoimmune disease, and even straighten scoliotic spines.
