'Who would have thought something as simple as changing the way we
breathe could be so revolutionary for our health? James Nestor is
the perfect guide to the pulmonary world and has written a
fascinating book, full of dazzling revelations'

'In the past few years, there have been several potentially
life-changing books, from Matthew Walker's Why We Sleep and Shane
O'Mara's In Praise of Walking, to Norman Doidge's The Brain's Way
of Healing. Breath deserves a place alongside such volumes. Read
it, and I guarantee you will want to change the way you
breathe'
*Evening Standard*
'This book is awesome. Most people have no idea how to do breathing
exercises and how beneficial they are. I learned a lot from James
Nestor's book. Over the last few weeks I've been using the methods
I learned and I can tell you there are absolutely some real
benefits to be had from this'
*Joe Rogan, on Instagram*
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. I already feel calmer and healthier
just in the last few days, from making a few simple changes in my
breathing, based on what I've read. Our breath is a beautiful,
healing, mysterious gift, and so is this book
*Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love*
