290 Dan Brulé: 40 Years of Breath Mastery For Body, Mind, & Soul

Breathing awakens body intelligence. Breathing awakens heart intelligence. Instead of just going through life with your head leading the way, breath allows you to open your emotional IQ, heart intelligence, intuition, and gut feeling so you can show up better prepared for every moment in life. There are certain experiences that we cannot think our way through, we have to feel our way through them. - Dan Brulé

How can breath awareness and conscious breathing maximize your life and unlock your full potential?

Listen To Episode 290 As Dan Brulé Uncovers:

• How breath therapy is different than traditional personal coaching.
• His style of breathwork to help clear emotions, trauma, and negative energy.
• Beginning your own breathwork practice by being passive and observing your breath, becoming intimate with it, and tracking it as a meditation practice for mindfulness-awareness.
• Why breath is a door for greater emotional intelligence and showing up better prepared for every moment of life.
• The importance of getting back in touch with your physical body through breath especially if you want to get back in touch with your creative side.
• How breath can show you the connection behind your childhood, early trauma, and the layers that you want to peel back to be able to truly express yourself.
• Being your own scientist through breathwork, meditation, and other wellness practices rather than just waiting for the scientific evidence to show up.
• Morning ritual practices including being in tune with your breath and paying attention to it for a moment as soon as you open your eyes.
• Psychoneuroimmunology and how you can make yourself either sick or better with the power of your thoughts.
• Why the nose is meant to breathe in and out air yet you can't speak, laugh, or cry through it, unlike the mouth.
• What you can learn about your own breathing habits and breathwork practices by observing the way babies breathe.

Exploring The Power Of The Breath

• Breathing habits you've unconsciously become accustomed to such as breath-holding that signals the body and the lizard brain that it's in danger.
• The incredible impact that making an audible, vocal breath sound makes compared to the silent one for your nervous system.
• What thought patterns, emotions, and psychological states breathing reveals in you when you pay close enough attention to it.
• Why getting a handle on your emotional state is key for being exposed to devastating and stressful situations.
• Steps he took to help him through his son's death including using the breath as a tool for greater emotional intelligence.
• The power of breath as a foundation for those who work in the creative space of speaking, singing, and performing.
• Discovering your authentic truth when you pause, let go of the old way of being, and become aware of what is actually happening in your life.
• Dealing with the emotions and memories that bubble up and are released during breathwork and meditation.
• How the practice of relaxing his jaw during inhaling helped Tony Robbins lower his blood pressure by 15 points in a week and it never went back up after that training with Dan.
• Why breathing is so subjective and what matters the most are the muscles being used, what you're focusing on, and whether you're relaxed or tense rather than the rate of breath.
• The fact that people will sometimes get different results even though they're using the same techniques as another person.

 

Breath Mastery

"Breath mastery is learning how to use the breath as a tool, as a force, and as a bridge for health, for growth, and for change. Once you discover the power of breathwork, it's almost like you've found out that you have an arm growing out of your back and now you realize it's there and all the amazing things you can do with it. We've tapped into the power of breath enough to survive but we haven't entered a process of higher consciousness with it." - Dan Brulé

 

Coming Back To Our True Selves

"The breath is a way to come back to who we really are but people don't use their breath enough or correctly. They kind of practice it through the exercises they learned in a yoga book but they don't integrate it into their life as a strategy like they do with brushing their teeth, taking a shower, or eating. Breathwork should be on the level of those activities that need to be done consciously every day but people don't see its potential yet." - Dan Brulé

 

Breathing In Energy

"When we inhale, we're charging ourselves with energy. Take the time to actually breathe in and consciously focus on it. You're not breathing in air, you're breathing in energy. So, when you let it go of it in the exhale, you can observe how your body is responding, focus on the strongest physical feelings, and breathe into those body parts that need energy and your highest level of attention." - Dan Brulé

 

Expressing Ourselves Through The Breath

"Through the breath, we make sure that what's coming from us is coming from who we really are. Breathing gives us a chance to very consciously and deliberately connect to our inner intelligence, begin to trust it, and allow it to express through us." - Dan Brulé
