In this captivating episode, Maurice and David Jackson unravel the profound impact of breath on our health and well-being. Delving into the depths of breath mechanics, they uncover the secrets of over-breathing and the transformative benefits of breathing less. From understanding the crucial role of carbon dioxide to exploring the intricate mechanics of proper breathing, they illuminate how conscious breath work can enhance cognitive function, manage stress, and aid in recovery, especially for individuals navigating brain injuries and trauma. Join them as they navigate the nuanced landscape of breath, offering practical insights and invaluable tips for integrating breath work into daily routines for optimal health.

• Breathing less and slowing down the breath can have numerous benefits for overall health and well-being.
• Proper breathing mechanics, such as nasal breathing and diaphragmatic breathing, are essential for optimal functioning of the body and brain.
• Carbon dioxide plays a crucial role in oxygen delivery and overall physiological balance.
• Breath work can be particularly beneficial for individuals recovering from brain injuries or experiencing stress and trauma.
• Integrating breath work into daily routines and activities can help improve breathing habits and overall health. Proper breathing involves more than just inhaling oxygen and exhaling carbon dioxide. Our relationship with carbon dioxide is crucial for optimal health.
• Good breathing mechanics include expanding the rib cage and diaphragm, breathing through the nose, and maintaining good posture.
• Improving our breathing habits can enhance cognitive function, manage stress, and improve overall health.
• Conscious breathing exercises, such as nasal breathing and diaphragmatic breathing, can help restore balance to the nervous system and improve overall well-being.

• "Breathing too much, breathing less."
• "The speed and the size of the breath."
• "Using the breath as a tool to create physiological and mental changes."
• "It's not as black and white as that, like too much of anything like water is good for you too much water you can drown like carbon dioxide is good too much."
• "In terms of how you get air into your lungs, it's a pressure differential. So by me expanding."
• "If I'm breathing sort of quite shallow and from the upper chest moving vertically, that's more linked to my stress response, rather than when I'm breathing diaphragmatically and with correct rib cage articulation."
