Workshops Are you overbreathing?
Which brain is yours?

Attend an inspiring two-day workshop… GOOD
BREATHING, BAD BREATHING. See
impressive live demonstrations, using innovative technology with 8 people at
a time. See firsthand how good and bad breathing can profoundly affect us
all. Learn about the profound effects of
changing respiratory chemistry on physiology, health, cognition, emotion,
behavior, performance, consciousness. Learn about how breathing can explain
“unexplained” symptoms and deficits, usually mistakenly attributed to other causes
by both professionals and lay persons. Learn about how learned breathing behavior
may mediate placebo/nocebo effects attributed to treatments and other “convenient”
explanations. Learn about practical applications in
education, corporate coaching, counseling, psychology, athletics, fitness
training, healthcare, and peak performance training. This is a program for virtually anyone seriously
interested in breathing, but is especially for clinicians, consultants, and
educators. BE PREPARED FOR SOME SERIOUS SURPRISES,
even if you’re an expert. Few people, lay or professional, know that
(1) breathing directly regulates body chemistry, including pH, electrolyte
balance, blood flow, hemoglobin chemistry, and kidney function, and that (2)
breathing is a behavior subject to the same principles of learning as any
other behavior, including the role of motivation, emotion, attention,
perception, and memory. Bringing
together these two simple facts means bringing together the biological and behavioral
sciences in profoundly practical ways relevant to the lives of millions. It changes the way that we think about
ourselves and our physiology. Failure to directly address breathing as
learned behavior, and how it regulates fundamental body chemistry, means
leaving out the most fundamental, practical, and profound factors that
account for (1) the far-reaching effects of bad breathing, as well as for (2)
the surprising benefits of good breathing.
“Bad” breathing can cause, trigger, exacerbate, and perpetuate symptoms
and deficits of all kinds, ones that typically go “unexplained,” or are
falsely attributed to other causes; these effects are real, not
imagined. “Good” breathing, on the
other hand, can bring about immensely beneficial physical, mental, and
behavioral changes, ones that again may be attributed to other unrelated
factors. Unfortunately, misinformation,
misconceptions, pseudoscience prescriptions, and ignorance about breathing
prevent people from making good use of basic textbook knowledge. In this course we describe a solution:
comprehensive educational and consulting services for observing, evaluating,
and learning breathing behavior. These
services are not about diagnosis and treatment. They are about learning optimal breathing
behavior through self-exploration.
Emphasis is on inside-out learning and intuitive experience, rather
than on outside-in “treatments” and prescriptive exercises. In exquisitely
