Welcome to the Neuroscience of Breathing!

Life starts with breath and ends with breath. How much do you know about it?

Why learning more about breathing?

We learn so much during our formal and informal education, but most of us were never taught how to breathe properly. 

Our life starts with a first breath and ends with our last breath, but we tend to take it for granted in between. Breathing constitutes a gateway between the body and the mind, and breathing practices are a very effective set of tools to manage our level of energy, stress, emotions, focus, cognitive performance.

Those practices have been developed by ancient Yogis thousands of years ago, and we now understand their neurophysiological effects.

In this online self-study course, Arnaud Complainville, will cover the most recent neuroscience research on breathing practices, and guide you through the main practices that will become part of your daily toolkit to master your body and mind.
