A Scottish Judo champion, former financier and music producer, Stuart came to breathwork after losing his girlfriend to cancer at the age of just 31.

Other exercises aspire to help readers improve focus by breathing in through one nostril and out through the other and manage pain by imagining a “nurturing light” carrying away discomfort. Mornings wouldn’t be the same for many without waking up to his daily Instagram live sessions that set people up for their day since the pandemic. Er is een aangename afwisseling tussen theoretische inzichten, voorbeeldcasussen, eigen ervaringen en de eigenlijke oefeningen. His work has been featured in numerous publications including The Times, The Evening Standard and The Guardian. You feel better right away and in the few days that I've been reading Breathe In Breathe Out, I've already found myself using the tools to destress, focus, feel energized and even sleep better.BAD breathing is like wearing your winter clothes on a hot summer’s day… (and not knowing that your shorts are in your bag).

Stuart teaches clients to relearn movements that have long since been forgotten: breathing from the diaphragm, not the chest; breathing through the nose, not the mouth; or even simply adjusting posture. This excerpt was taken from Breathe In Breathe Out by author and founder of Breathpod Stuart Sandeman. Something that’s been hidden/sacred in amongst great teachings as very hard to understand it from a culture/language perspective. After I lost my girlfriend to cancer, I was on the brink of despair until I discovered that just by tweaking something we all do all day, every day you can rewire your brain and change the way you think and feel. I certainly feel more conscious of my shonky breathing activities after reading his new book, in which he describes humans as “pugs of the primate world”.

Breathpod’s trademark sessions are designed to boost performance, increase productivity, alleviate stress and integrate difficult emotions, such as anger and fear. A deliberate mixture of accessibility and information that keeps the book feeling practical rather than too mystical.
