Episode notes

Improving how you breath is probably the best way to get more energy, sleep better and enjoy a calm and resilient nervous system. I'm talking to David Jackson, Oxygen advantage Master Trainer and Breathwork coach extraordinaire. We’ve split this conversation in 2 as there’s quite a lot to take in, but it’s powerful stuff. In part 2 we explore the:


  • Powerful connection between breathing and the vagus nerve
  • Techniques like humming to stimulate the vagus nerve and promote relaxation
  • Critical role of the diaphragm in breathing
  • Importance of carbon dioxide in optimizing breathing and overall health
  • Practical ways to improve carbon dioxide sensitivity and breathing efficiency
  • Building on insights from Part 1 to provide a comprehensive understanding of conscious breathing
