- Breathing - so essential to life, and yet most of us are doing it wrong! Dr. Belisa Vranich, psychologist and breathing expert, shares some surprising information about breathing and teaches us all how to do it right.
Dr. Belisa Vranich is a clinical psychologist, author, public speaker, and the author of “Breathe: The Simple, Revolutionary 14-Day Program to Improve your Mental and Physical Health”. As founder of The Breathing Class™, Belisa has taught and lectured nationwide on topics related to dysfunctional breathing patterns and stress. The Breathing Class™ addresses both physical and psychological problems related to oxygenation that is out of balance, and teaches people to breathe in an anatomically congruous way that maximizes balanced inhales and exhales. Belisa received her PhD in Psychology from New York University and completed an internship at Bellevue Hospital with specialization in neuropsychology, psychiatric consultation and liaison, and bilingual treatment. An outspoken advocate for women’s health issues and veterans’ rights, Belisa also volunteers with several animal rescue organizations and is an advisory board member of Philosophy’s Hope and Grace Mental Health Campaign.

Lots of people making jokes about knowing how to breathe already, but breathing correctly during times of stress can actually save you 1000s of dollars in medical expenses - stress Fs your entire body.
I know I just think sarcasm is funny
can confirm. you can become a professional if you don’t stop and consider the simplest changes like how to take a breath
Exactly.👍
You prolly dont give a damn but does any of you know of a method to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow lost my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me.
@Bobby Dylan instablaster =)
POV: you searched up "How to breathe"
Yeah cas I forgot🤦♂️
No I searched up “How to breathe” with an e
Yes
I did just to see what I’d get 😂😂😂
Idk how to breath lmaoooo
6:38 is where she explains the technique
🙏🏼
The real MVP
Isa Sardar I just Love comments like yours!!! Thanks a bunch!! 🙂
Hate when people do this. God damn spend at least 10 minutes to learn about yourself. None of you are Jeff Bezos.
@@whocares5584 If C's can get you get degrees, than shut up.
Breathing is like posture. Most humans take it for granted. But breathing is the most essential process. You can live weeks without food, days without liquid, and only minutes without air. Wake up! Take care of breathing and everything else becomes easier.
Great job, Belisa!
Whenever I maintain a good posture it becomes hard for me to breathe. The fact that she said that you can round your shoulders while breathing made me wonder how would we maintain a good posture when a good breathing technique obliges you to round your shoulders. The question that occured to me now is do we even need to be postured parallel to the wall? is it really a good posture? I've seen videos about the importance of a good posture but this and that don't fit for my personal case. I'm eager to some useful info about this matter.
@@GoodVisionFit maybe years of bad posture can make breathing trough the diaphram harder
Everyone thinks they "know" how to breathe. Most people think that they know how to run, too. But there are vastly different levels of skill. This woman is clearly an expert, if not a master in the art and science of breathing. True skill requires time and attention. Dr. Belisa Vranich is "a breath of fresh air" in the field of self-optimization. If you are serious about your health, study her work.
She just cant take a audience through the breathing very effectively. Too fast.
Thomas Clifford's Martial Arts so in everything, I still can’t breathe
But what if I do know how to breathe and run? Am I no-one?😨
@@MsAnchovey Sooo fast, I feel stressed out after watching this! Word record in fastest box-breathing :D
this is the most amazing talk I ever heard in my life and I cried when she said what a beautiful machine the body is, seriously
Nick Scotto agree with you..
Yes that's one is little old but still a very goodlooking body/machine there
Why did you cry?
She is teaching da best lessons in da world.
Practice every day
I purchased her book "Breathe" a year ago and it has helped me improve my breathe and health in general.
author?
Ignorance is not a privilege. People make fun of what they don’t understand. Their loss, not hers. This is beautiful. Just breathe.
I haven't breathed in nearly 16 years which is my whole life. I never knew how to breathe. Thanks to this video, I now know how to breathe. I am truly grateful of this video and hope it does well. All I have to say is thank you. This video needs to be promoted big time. Thanks to you guys, I can breathe. I don't have really anything else to say except thank you.
I can’t tell if you’re being ironic or not
Thank you, go for it! god bless
OMG TYSM SM I COULDN'T BREATHE FOR 100,0000,00000,0000+ YEARS!!!!

@@helicopterpilczuk so heartwarming
I actually remember being "taught " to breath "correctly" from the back of the lungs in high school........ programming at its greatest! THANK YOU 💌
What you said was shocking. And true. I didn't breathe properly for over 40 years and I didnt know what is wrong with me. You explained a lot. I agree with that in 100%. Thanks. God bless you.
This woman didn't just taught us how to breath. She also taught you how to use hamon.
whoa the energy in her voice was great, which proved that her breathing is truely good.
damn now i can breathe thanks
Alex Man - good gawd me too!
Alex Man same here mate
Alex Man same,it's amazing ! Never experienced something as wonderful as this in my whole life.
I feel so thankful to have seen this. It's actually life changing! This is something everyone should know about. So awesome when a professional can lay it all out in simple steps and logical reasoning.
She is amazing. This has changed my life. No one will tell you this: no yogi, no doctor, no physiotherapist...no one. But yet 90% of us shallow breathe and that can led to complications in life. If I could I would thank her for sharing this knowledge.
I have anxiety. Have had it for about 7 years also. Sometimes I even forget to breathe or hold my breath unconsciously. If I eat something that triggers my anxiety I get sick right away. Major stomachache which leads to dizziness, stiffen neck and shoulders/shoulder pain, cold hands and feet etc. After months of cutting out I ate bread and dairy over the weekend and immediately with lack of sleep felt sick. No energy all of above sensations. Short anxiety attacks coming and going fast. Just wanted something to calm my nerves and found this. It helped me relax quite a lot to keep my thoughts away from being anxious.
Anxiety has stolen my life 😭
Awesome presentation! As a health professional, I measure HRV which which indicates the health if the nervous system. When I measure a clients HRV before and after the diaphramatic breathing, there is a measured improvement in the nervous system, everytime.
I can't tell you how much I adore her book!
Audience is so engaging there.
After choosing to watch a dozen videos of the countless TED Talks which delve into the history of or the importance of good breath and breathing, this is the first which shows how. Thanks Ms. Vranich!
I had the privilege of working with Belisa nearly two years ago. Her sessions changed my life. Very grateful for her work and commitment to helping people.
I've worked with her too. And it changed my life as well.
How often we must practice this tactical breathing?
This was explained really well and the interaction with the audience, having them experience breathwork is so amazing!
Wonderful Video - Thank you so much Dr Vranich for all the work you do helping people
I've seen the first two types of breathing before, but not the 3rd, I must say it really did feel great and I felt a noticeable calm after. Video is nicely done and calming to watch as well, thank you!
I have done this change like since 2 years ago and slowly added other breathing details like training holding your breath, or doing the VIM HOF techniques. I love how this liberates your health and lowers stress and inflammation
with time
THANKS FOR MAKING BREATHING SO REAL AND MEANINGFUL
Very informative I will now practice this regularly. Thanks for sharing.
Very entertaining and informative speech. Dr. Belisa is awesome!
If you thought the exercise she led you through towards the end of the video was too rushed, you can adjust the Playback Speed to slow it down.
For those who don't know how to do that, click the Settings button in the bottom right corner of the video (the gear icon), and from the menu click Playback Speed.
Breathing really is something that is so essential and many struggle with it in their daily lives. It can help in many different scenarios and I feel as though this video was very informational and can be a strong resource for many!
This has helped my headaches which are due to tension and TMJ
All these are techniques of India..proud of that.
Including Gobar drink 🍷?😂
Thank you! You Changed my Life! i Can smell!
great explanation....Great service for everyone!! Thank you
Life changing Video
Thank you for teaching me how to breathe
you're the best Dr. Belisa
People have no idea how much this video can increase their lifespan if they follow the recommendations
Thank you I didn’t know I was looking for it for the past 4 years now i can breathe 😻😻😻
Very simply explained the breathing technique, thank you.
She's knowledgeable and a very good speaker too.
Diafragmatic breathing is excellent for balancing, stabilising and grounding.
Thank you so much! after 6 long years of being oxygen deprived, I finally started breathing again after watching this video
People before watching this video: "AHH I WAS DYING THIS WHOLE TIME"
True.
Great information on the benefits of breathing - I know how powerful and super healthy we become conscious breathers, it's prana, LIFE...
Breathing, the cornerstone of health! So true, thank you Belisa, this is going to help a lot of people
Excellent. Thank you.
I havent been able to breathe for 10 years. Now i remember. Love to you from heaven
I’ve doing lots of different types of breathing over the past couple of years. This technique is very familiar as well as the pattern. Great for relaxing. Kundalini yoga has some wonderful breath exercises. She mentioned a couple: kabalabati and alternate nostril breathing.
I believe breathing is also an art 🎈
Each morning I would wake up dizzy and stressed I felt difficulty in breathing but after seeing your video and tips I managed to breathe properly. Feeling a tremendous difference
Loved this video Belisa. Thank you so much for this valuable information:)
these TED talks make me feel like I've been doing life all wrong. But I'm so happy and fortunate to have these tools available during this lifetime! huge fan of meditation, stretching, breath work, progressive muscle relaxation, and emotional freedom technique
This was so helpful 🙏🏽
Who came here because they searched how to breathe
😂😂😂
Lol me
Apollo_141 me
Me! And I'm glad I did :)
me
Thank you for showing me how to breath, i haven't known for 162 years. This changed my life. Thank you, Belisa!
Oustanding! Great information and spot on!
instructions not clear, I died
Yeah now i have hiv
XD
yooo best comment of the year contender
good
dude says he died a year ago, one year later random dude in comment section says.... good...
Wow, so beautifully done, thank you
I was going great with her until she started the exercise. It went too fast and I couldn't follow it. I agree with what she is saying, but the fast run through on the exercise actually raised my anxiety and I began to breathe shallow again!
i totally concur
For sure!!
My thoughts exactly! If she wanted to help slow everyone down and breathe correctly, she needed to count slowly. For example, when someone is experiencing anxiety and difficulty breathing, you don't make them breathe at YOUR pace. You count to THIER pace and gradually help them slow down. She may be an expert, but presentation needs some work...
Same here
Yeah, unfortunately she did a lot of 'selling' about how great horizontal breathing is. too much inspiration not enough instruction.
Very good points and finally a breathing expert with a practical and science-based approach. I teach wheelchair Tai Ji and use many of Dr Belisa's technics (which can be found her book) with my students. It definitely enriches my practice. Breathing is indeed a natural mechanism. It does seem obvious and we shouldn't feel guilty to take it for granted. But it's far from being silly to teach it. It's also a science, an art and a powerfull tool. We need more experts like Dr Belisa and more videos about breathing! Thanks for sharing your knowledge...
Exactly. Science based approach which was refreshing for me. I have read her book and it works.
THANK YOU!! I NEVER BEEN ABLE TO BREATHE
wow, this is actually very important.
She's got it. Exactly. So true
Breathing is everything.
Damn, I wish i knew this when i was a fetus.
you knew
😜😍
Same
Yeah, funny thing is you were trained to breathe the wrong way after birth
All the way up until 12 you were breathing perfectly.
Wonderful, she explained baby breathing technique of yoga. Abdominal breathing is the nature breathing. Awesome presentation. Thank you Ted X.
Thank you for this insight Breathing so much better now Can't wait to share this
thank god i found this tutorial, i didnt know how to do it for 22 years!!!
The best!
What a beautiful machine God has designed!!!!!!
Best Ted talk ever don't @ me
Dr. Belisa is incredible. Not only have I read her book...I've been in her workshops. Her workshops are an "experience" in which have taught me the importance of breathing. Now I'm a horizontal breather without even thinking about it. What's also great is that it's not so esoteric, it's scientifically based. It can only help. Especially for those who practice meditation, praying, in a stressful situation. It absolutely works. Hands down. I know from experience. When I'm going through stress overload, it helps every time. Especially when I'm working - many on my computer - I do her excercises while sitting at my desk. I recommend reading her book and trying it for yourself. And trust me, I'm a very skeptical person, but actually doing these excercises - it's changed me. I find I have more endurance and I'm not as tired as I used to be. I went from drinking 5-7 cups of coffee a day to just one. All I can say is it works for me. It's funny on how I see my belly breathing without even thinking about it. :).
So amazing!!!!! Thank you 🙏
I did my best to use your breathing techniques on my break at work, and I had a lot more energy throughout the day.
Thank you very much !
That's what got me show this video!
Thank You!
I was taught this from a choir teacher in primary school, 3 singing coaches in career and an opera singer. I also deep cycle breath (belly breath) just as illustrated on every rep when I'm working out in the gym. Out on the initial lift and in when putting the weight down. Maximising the oxygen intake on the most difficult part of the lift, which is putting it down. I've found it difficult to show people how to do this. My singing teachers said push down when inhaling and singing higher pitched notes. It can be difficult at first but has many benefits. It is awesome!
I can relate. I play trumpet so breathing is super important!
Wow it's like she read my mind.
I just recently cuaght on to this, and being recommened this by universe cant be a coincidence
nope it's Uncle Google helping you become a better person
Great helpful video. Thank you.
fantastic tutorial I have read her book several, times and came here to watch the details visually.... Read or listen to her book "Breathe"
Thanks. I'll try.
this is amazing
Nice talk. I love her hair, so beautiful!
Amazing explanation....thanks
ty this helped me so much i really love the vid this deservs a sub 100%!!!!
This was a great Hamon learning experience.
*Amazing talk*
Outstanding instruction and insight. Breathing CORRECTLY is so important. It can change your life!
Outstanding? Far from it. Quite worthless in fact. If you understood it, could you explain it to me? I understood nothing. Am I supposed to put my hands on my stomach and lean forward everytime I breathe from now on?
hdajhdajh jhasa good luck in life.
@@hdajhdaahha3836
Many are following and appreciating.
You follow or not, please praise !
@@hdajhdaahha3836 No that's just for practice dude. You definetly sound like you need to breathe properly
Thank you so much you helped me alot
This is great, it demonstrates why as a yoga instructor, Pranayama instruction is highly revered and necessitates proper instruction at risk of incredible disease if done otherwise.
Thank you Melanie
This changed my life,a machine has been breathing for me and when i found this video i finally knew how to breathe.
Wow. So nice. You are Art of living instructor I know. I am too. Thank u
She absolutely rocked this Ted Talk.... And I'm the Airbender 👏👏👏
You are not. The Leyeng of Whorra never existed.
2020 makes people search ''how to breath''
exciting isnt it 😎?
@@privatprivat7279 😅
IMO i say everyone is breathing but is it the right way?
I've been riddled with stress and anxiety after some life events for the last few years, and as a result of that my digestive system feels well and truly screwed. Hopefully this will help just a little bit, as I definitely don't breathe correctly.
Rickson Gracie. Watch his the documentary of his Japan 8 man tournament in the 90s, "Choke" (its on youtube), its amazing, and it shows him training on diaphragmatic breathing to fight better
Excellent! Thanks
Thank you for making this video. Before watching this I didn't know how to breathe. Thank you 🙏🙏
