Movement and Exercise: The Importance of Optimal Breathing

Broadcast on January 10, 2023
With Dr. Belisa Vranich
Hosted by Niraj Naik

According to Dr. Belisa Vranich, feeling out of breath when moving may be the first time people think about breath. Usually, the uncomfortable sensation of being out of breath comes at a time when we want to move faster or go for longer distances. We are the only beings who are able to change the breath and not be tethered to our movements.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • Breathing can help your movement
  • Old sports injuries can be affecting your breathing
  • A practice for stretching and dance
