A New York Times Bestseller and a Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020, this work presents a captivating exploration of the science, culture, and evolution of human breathing. Despite the importance of proper breathing to our health, many have lost the ability to do it correctly, leading to significant consequences. Journalist James Nestor embarks on a global journey to uncover what went wrong and how to remedy it. His findings are not in traditional medical settings but in ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, choir schools in New Jersey, and the polluted streets of São Paulo. Nestor investigates ancient breathing techniques like Pranayama and Tummo, collaborating with experts to scientifically evaluate long-held beliefs about breathing. Modern research reveals that minor adjustments in our breathing can enhance athletic performance, improve organ function, alleviate snoring, asthma, and autoimmune diseases, and even correct spinal issues. This groundbreaking work challenges conventional wisdom about our fundamental biological function, drawing on thousands of years of medical knowledge and contemporary studies in various scientific fields. After reading this, you will never view breathing the same way again.
