When we breathe freely and easily our body distributes oxygen - our most vital of nutrients - to every one of our 73 trillion cells. But when we are stressed our muscles tighten, our breath becomes shorter, and the delicate balance of oxygen and carbon dioxide in our bodies is distributed. We continue to live, but without the energy and sense of well-being we should naturally have.

- the anatomy of breathing
- how breathing is linked to our emotional and physical states
- how the breath can act as a bridge to the unconscious
