Want to Change Your Life? Take a Breath, Part 1

Breathing is the most natural thing in the world; we do it all the time and pay no attention to it. And yet, this simple act holds huge potential for enhancing our physical and mental wellness. In this podcast, host Charles L. Raison discusses the health benefits of breath work with Donald J. Noble, PhD, an instructor in the Center for the Study of Human Health at Emory University, continuing a conversation started in a prior “Health is Everything” podcast. In this installment Raison and Noble open up a wide-ranging discussion on topics ranging from how breathing changes brain function on a moment-by-moment basis to the potential of both slow-deep and rapid breathing to improve well-being, along the way providing a quick guide to the bodily mechanisms involved in various therapeutic breathing strategies.

This episode is Part 1 in a two-part series.

Featuring:

Dr. Don Noble, Instructor at Emory University's Center for the Study of Human Health

Host:

Charles Raison, Psychiatrist, Professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Emory University
