"I highly recommend this book." —Wim Hof

“A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe—and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” —Elizabeth Gilbert

"This book is amazing. “ —Joe Rogan

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.


There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences.

Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe.

Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is.

Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.

James Nestor hat mein Leben in der Woche des Hörens wahnsinnig bereichert. Es war so spannend, dass ich oft die gesamte Mittagspause raus bin um zu Hören und zu Atmen. Technisch ist das Buch ganz großes Kino, die verschiedenen Pulmonauten, der historische Kontext und die Wissenschaft werden so wunderbar verbunden, dass es immer eine Freude ist weiterzuhören. Es gibt keine Passagen die sich ziehen.
Leider fällt das Buch am Ende etwas flach. Die praktischen Implikationen des Gelernten werden sehr kurz abgehandelt, alles endet etwas schal mit dem Yogi-Prana und dem ungelenken Versuch es wissenschaftlich einzuordnen. Hier hätte man das Thema vertiefen oder weglassen sollen, in dieser Form schadet es dem Buch meiner Meinung nach eher.
Trotzdem ein Augen öffnendes Buch, das jeder gelesen haben sollte!

Atemberaubend

I feel like this is a must for schools! Or for anyone, actually :) There is so much knowledge about the most fundamental aspect of our lives - the breath! And how many of our inner systems and how much of our well-being is interconnected with this source of energy! It is a fun and exciting read! Enjoyed every minute and would highly recommend it (and am doing so).

Amazing old knowledge revisited

Well read audio-book
Perfect for everyone that wants to get into the art of breathing.
The autor has a good way of combining background information with knowledge you can use in everyday life. The background informations provided make it easy to look something up if you are interested in the history and science of Breathing.

Highly Recommended

I didn't know the importance of nose breathing, the exhale, or of carbon dioxide. Nor did I know chewing mattered so much (would have liked some example foods though...) I am looking forward to a first session with chuck McGee on Sunday and will be practicing long exhales, breath holds and of course, the magical 5.5 BPM. Thanks James.

Learned a lot
