No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. Today’s guest has written a revolutionary book called Breath, which challenges the way that we think about breath and its implications for our overall health. In this episode, you’ll hear about James Nestor’s work as a journalist, researching, writing, and publishing the book. You’ll also hear about a tool that James has purchased which has completely changed his perspective on air quality. Join us for an enriching conversation about all things breath and breathing, as well as the importance of good sleep for a healthy lifestyle today.
