Whether you want to lose weight, cure your sleeping problems or reduce stress, the first and most important step is—breathe!

Stress? Insomnia? Digestive woes? Low energy?

There is an easy and natural way to deal with these issues, one that has been completely overlooked and taken for granted—the breath. How well you breathe is the best indicator of how healthy you are and how long you will live. Breath control has the power to prevent and heal illness.

Written by clinical psychologist Belisa Vranich, who has over a decade of experience in breath work, Breathe is an eye-opening exploration of how our breath affects our health and how we can use it as a natural method to cure ailments, including:

  • Emotional and psychological: anxiety, stress, grief, insomnia
  • Physical: pain, weight gain, digestion woes, high blood pressure, low energy
  • Mental: concentration, creativity, cognitive performance

Combining anatomy, fitness, psychology, and mindfulness, this first-of-its-kind book includes simple, 10-minute daily breathing exercises for increased energy levels, better sleep, a sense of calm, less pain, and an improved immune system, in just two weeks.

Whether you want to lose weight, cure your sleeping problems or reduce stress, the first and most important step is—breathe!
