Power of Breathing with Danny Massa

Reconsider your breath. Think of it as a stress-reducing tool– like a hammer. You can use that tool to build something beautiful or you can use that tool to smash your own fingertips. We weren’t born with the innate knowledge of how to use a hammer and we weren’t born with the innate knowledge of how to breathe in the most optimal way. To maximize our breathing potential, we have to unlearn a few things like “civilized breathing.”

You see, human beings aren’t designed to sit most of the day, and then move in vehicles at highway speeds. And we certainly aren’t designed to digest tragedy or seek validation from our tiny screens. And these ways of being have led to a culture of chronic stress and anxiety.
