In this episode Mez dives into the neuroscience behind how breath work physiologically stimulates a parasympathetic response. He shares his experience as Tai Chi practitioner while combining the neurophysiology behind using breath work as a cognitive anchor to improve not just mobility/balance/stability of the body but also how the breath enhances the stability of our mind, our aerobic capacity, recovery, and sleep so much more..
The breath is such a practical tool for not just relaxation BUT also extreme levels of performance/strength/power….
He dives into research from cognitive neuroscience to support a mindfulness meditation practice as well as going back to basic physiology to explain how proper breathing instructions can stimulate baroreceptor & chemoreceptor reflexes to target the vagus nerve.
At the end of the episode Mez shares practical advice to take the science of breathing into practice. If you're interested in The 12 Coiling Movements of Qigong that he refers to at the end of the episode check out that playlist on our Youtube channel.
