Today's episode is about using the breath as a powerful tool to release old emotions and let go of stress and anxiety. Breath-work practioner James Dowler explains what is breath-work, conscious connected breathing and why it's so powerful in healing the mind and body. We delve into the biology, history and practical examples of breath work techniques you can use daily and in moments you need to calm yourself.

Thank you for reading this and thank you for being here. The intention for this podcast is to share conversations on the subjects that can nurture our life from the inside.
