Summary

Are you a nose-breather or a mouth-breather?

I sat down for lunch recently with a few old friends, and one of them asked: “Abel, what is the most underrated performance hack in health and fitness?”

I said without hesitation, “nasal breathing.”

When you learn to harness the power of the breath, you can rewire your entire nervous system, which has vast implications for your health, performance, and even your personality. The state of our nervous system directly impacts our quality of life and ability to enjoy life's challenges.

Today we’re here with one of the OG’s of alternative health and natural movement, the creator of MovNat and Breathholdwork, our friend Erwan Le Corre. Erwan is known as the "Godfather of Natural Movement" and is author of "The Practice of Natural Movement."

No slouch, Erwan holds a US National Record in static breath-holding with a 7 minutes 29 seconds performance. His personal best breath hold currently sits at 8 minutes 03 seconds!

This episode is both practical and deeply existential, with questions like: “Are we spiritual beings having a human experience, or humans having a spiritual experience?” I hope you dig this one.

On this episode, you’ll discover:

How Erwan developed and practiced the ability to hold his breath for 8 minutes (!!!)
Why hyperventilation leads to sympathetic dominance, which can be detrimental to well-being
Why developing physical capability is a moral responsibility
How to manage your mindset to become more resilient and thrive under stress
The physical, emotional, and mental consequences of breathwork
How to achieve a state of peace, trust, and love through regulating your nervous system.
