BREATH: Is Deep Breathing the Secret to Long Living?

We do it 25,000 times a day, but most of us rarely give breathing a thought. Now, though, with wildfire smoke wafting from California to Maine and delta variant cases on the rise, breathing is suddenly top of mind for many of us. That’s why we wanted to revisit one of our favorite episodes, a fascinating conversation with James Nestor, author of the New York Times bestseller “Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art.” He leads Rufus through the ins and outs of intentional breathing, revealing its potential to clear our minds, heal our bodies, and help us achieve incredible things.
