Welcome to this breathwork session.
This is Guri and I'm your guide for the next few minutes.
In this session we are going to biohack your breathing using breath retention.
So begin by finding your most comfortable position sitting on the floor or on a chair.
Make sure your back is upright but not uptight.
Please find your awareness and bring it towards your breathing.
While you're getting ready to biohack your breath,
Let's cover how this exercise is going to unfold.
We are going to breathe into our belly and chest with two inhales from our nose and out through our mouth followed by breath retention for 30 seconds in the first round and with every round adding 15 more seconds for the breath hold.
You can choose to inhale from your mouth if you find that helpful.
It would sound and feel something like this.
Into your belly,
Into your chest,
Smoothly out.
At any point if you feel like taking a moment,
Feel free to do that.
If you have some medical condition,
Please try other meditation that I have on the show.
So let's keep our ego aside and enjoy this session.
