info_outlineIt’s time for another brand new episode of Can’t Be Contained! Today, I’m honoured to be joined by author, breathwork facilitator, and founder of the Living Proof Institute, Sachin Patel! Sachin sits down with me this week to share his journey into the world of breathwork, which began with his Wim Hof training in 2018.
We discuss the holistic benefits of breathwork, including its impact on physical health, mental clarity, and emotional well-being. Together, Sachin and I delve into the science behind breathwork, as he highlights how it can aid in detoxification, improve metabolic health, and even assist with issues such as snoring or chronic pain. Our conversation touches on often overlooked contributors to quality of life, including stimulating the vagus nerve. These elements, when harnessed correctly can have profound effects on maintaining optimal health.
Sachin and I get into:
➤ Identifying dysfunctional breathing
➤ Optimizing light exposure to our circadian rhythm
➤ Lung capacity as a predictor of lifespan
Though breathwork seems simple at first glance, it’s an immensely sophisticated practice that holds tremendous power to impact one’s everyday life. So whether you’re simply looking to deepen your existing breathwork practice, or you’re new to it altogether, Sachin has the wisdom you need to transform your health from the inside out!
So put those headphones on, breathe in, and listen.
And don’t forget to check out the Pause Facilitator Training program, found HERE! If you’re ready to take the next step in your breathwork journey, there’s absolutely NO better place to start! I’ll see you there, lovelies!
