The Oxygen Effect with Tom Herron

“The quality of your life is directly related to the quality of your breathing.” - Dr. Andrew Weil

Breathing is one of the most natural and vital things we do but, not all of us can take advantage of all its benefits. Our health lies in the way we breathe yet many of us unknowingly do it incorrectly.

Proper breathing is not just for survival. It is a key to vitality and calmness, a transformative tool in navigating life’s challenges.

Each inhale and exhale when done appropriately can unlock our physical, mental, and emotional potential.

In this episode my guest, Tom Herron, and I explore the profound impact of breathing. Tom first appeared in my podcast in 2016, where we discussed breath therapy, his career, and his fascinating story.

Listen in today and learn how to enhance and master your breathing through the practical strategies we provide. Broaden your perspective and be inspired as we highlight not only our own experiences but others as well.
