Great guidance as always. Thanks Neil. 🙏

Lovely, gentle and conscious guidance with a lot of competence behind every word. Thank you for promoting the calmer site of breathwork! I think we need this more than ever today!

Great Neil thank you. Can I ask why I find it challenging to hold my breath with Buteyko but can hold for c2 mins with dynamic breathing. I’m a yoga therapist (also Surrey!) and have knowledge on Co2, chemoreflex etc but can’t figure out this. Thanks in advance, Lindsey

Superb practice that always brings me home. Thank you sharing this method of breathing.

Thankyou for this offering. This exercise helps me feel very relaxed and refreshed and is helpful as part of my recovery from CFS
