I don't know if it's still on there.
It was about a 10 week course.
And we completed all of the modules.
At one point, we were gonna sign up to go to the Pyrenees Mountains and do this retreat with you.
But that was one of the more material changes in my life.
It was right about the time that I decided I would schedule all of my meetings and travel around sleep and exercise.
It was the day that I decided when I finished that course that breathwork would be non-negotiable.
And there hasn't been a day in my life ever since, no matter where I'm in the world, that I haven't done it.
I do it on airplanes.
People think I'm โ I was on Emirates Airlines and you got the little lounge in the back.
Everybody's standing around the bar.
I'm sitting at the โ
table doing breath work sound like I'm about to hyperventilate and pass out and I'm awake the entire flight and I'm functioning the entire flight it's just so fascinating so it was the breath that allowed you to mitigate the effects of the cold
Absolutely, in breathing exercise, we are able to activate 100% neural activity in our brain.
That means anything that is deprived of blood flow and glymphatic presence, the right way, the right homeostasis, creates a non-accessible pathway
We cannot enter with our will when there is a less blood flow.
So what we do, we cleanse the brain of brain waste through these breathing exercises.
And then we activate all the brain the way nature meant it to be.
It's our brain.
It should be 100% in possible contact with our will to use the brain for whatever our path demands.
