Sensing Cellular Respiration | Mitochondrial Breathing

Join me for a somatic journey on the breath down to the sub-cellular level. We follow the path of oxygen into the body through the nostrils, through the lungs and the bloodstream, and into every cell of the body. We arrive at the mitochondria, the cellular organelles that transform energy from our food into ATP (a form usable by the body) through a process called cellular respiration. We rest our awareness here for a while, at the sub-cellular level, sensing breathing and the wondrous energy transformation processes that form the basis of our vitality, of our aliveness.

Note: This is not a classical meditation practice, but a weaving together of somatic sensing and experiential cellular biology. It is intended for those curious about some of the biochemical processes that animate us.

Thank you for this journey into the cells. I felt my whole body shining with beautiful white light 🤍

I loved getting to experience my body at the subcellular level. It was a powerful practice. Thank you!

Great pacing. Loved the ease into the ending. And the balance of technical information and gentle guiding through the whole experience. Thank you.

Wonderful visualization traveling through the Krebs cycle.
