Imagine a breathing technique that can increase oxygen uptake and delivery to the cells, improve blood circulation, and unblock the nose. Perhaps it can help open the airways of the lungs, enhance blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain, improve sleep, and bring calmness to the mind. It might even restore bodily functions disturbed by stress, build greater resilience, and help you to live longer. You might think this description sounds farfetched. But it isn’t.

Money - investing, personal finance, and business decisions - is typically taught as a math-based field, where data and formulas tell us exactly what to do. But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together. In The Psychology of Money, award-winning author Morgan Housel shares 19 short stories exploring the strange ways people think about money.

Hugh van Cuylenburg was a primary school teacher volunteering in northern India when he had a life-changing realisation: despite the underprivileged community the children were from, they were remarkably positive. By contrast, back in Australia Hugh knew that all too many children struggled with depression, social anxieties and mental illness. His own little sister had been ravaged by anorexia nervosa. How was it that young people he knew at home, who had food, shelter, friends and a loving family, struggled with their mental health, while these kids seemed so contented and resilient?

Coexisting but conflicting needs create self-sabotaging behaviors. This is why we resist efforts to change, often until they feel completely futile. But by extracting crucial insight from our most damaging habits, building emotional intelligence by better understanding our brains and bodies, releasing past experiences at a cellular level, and learning to act as our highest potential future selves, we can step out of our own way and into our potential.

For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

During the many decades of the author's clinical psychiatric practice, the primary aim was to seek the most effective ways to relieve human suffering in all of its many forms. The inner mechanism of surrender was found to be of great practical benefit and is described in this book.

Stephen R. Covey's book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, has been a top seller for the simple reason that it ignores trends and pop psychology for proven principles of fairness, integrity, honesty, and human dignity. Celebrating its 15th year of helping people solve personal and professional problems, this special anniversary edition includes a new foreword and afterword written by Covey that explore whether the 7 Habits are still relevant and answer some of the most common questions he has received over the past 15 years.

Meh...didn't leave me all that impressed

Publisher's Summary
Brought to you by Penguin. Narrated by James Nestor.
There is nothing more essential to our health and wellbeing than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat 25,000 times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it.
The answers aren't found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo, Brazil. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe.
Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance, rejuvenate internal organs, halt snoring, allergies, asthma and autoimmune disease, and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is.
Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head.
You will never breathe the same again.
Critic Reviews
"A transformative book that changes how you think about your body and mind." (Josua Foer, author of Moonwalking with Einstein)
"Who would have thought something as simple as changing the way we breathe could be so revolutionary for our health, from snoring to allergies to immunity? A fascinating book, full of dazzling revelations." (Dr Rangan Chatterjee)
"I highly recommend this book." (Wim Hof)

Hands down the BEST book for self healing!
Wow. I mean. Wow. This is not a book. This is a transformative beacon of information.
Not some woo woo hippie book about self healing. It’s a very Tim Ferriss approach to health, but with layers of wonderful storytelling. Not I usually listen to audible books on the train and walking between point A and point B. I actually found myself having to stop, move to the side of the footpath, and take in the information I heard. It resonated somewhere deep in my soul, and I connected with the information on a level that I wasn’t expecting.
It literally makes sense, and frames big pharma and health concerns in a very objective light that makes any intelligent person question it and look for easier and natural alternatives… being right under your nose… or actually literally your nose.
I really can’t put into words how floored I was by this book, and I am a hyper consumer of books. An unexpected but phenomenally clear, and simple answer to the complex and overly talked about topic of health and wellness. If I could give it a 10/5 I would!

5 stars but nearly 3 or 4
Finished it. The information is essential in this book, literally everyone should know it. Ever since breathing through my nose no joke every aspect of my health feels better (sleep, mood, exercise) only issue which probably makes me sound ungrateful is the amount of content that doesn't need to be in the book. at least a third of the book is spent describing people and places it's just not necessary.

A brilliant book that is a must read for everyone. It's impossible to ignore the benefits that something so simple that we take for granted everyday we have been doing wrong our whole lives. The knowledge in this book should be read by everyone everywhere & like so much of what we should know by now isn't... makes you think why the hell not?

Life changing.
Every aspect of this book is fabulous. I will never breathe again with out some awareness and I hope that I can one day experience exultant and transformative aspects of the practice.
One minor yet persistent irritation….the author/natator James Nestor’s tendency to slightly change tone when quoting someone. Am I alone? (Sorry!) :/ :s :)
But otherwise, thoroughly, THOROUGHLY fantastic.

Enjoyable and informative
Great to listen to while falling asleep. Nice smooth sounding reader.
The story of how the writer finds their information and breathing techniques was a little bulky if all your after is purely the techniques. Still, very enjoyable.
Information of how they came to learn their breathing techniques actually lead me to MORE books By Peter Kelder 'the eye of revelation' rejuvenation for example, that had longevity exercises that seem to of had an effect.
Breathing plus the references in Breathing of other longevity books are definitely worth the purchase and time spent listening.
