Yoga and Meditation is the best gift India has given to this world.
Vedanta is the true gift from India.
@@sherrybee7227 i need to look into it thx
I've always dismissed this deep breathing thing as nonsense, but I'm realising it is a miraculous thing that just cannot be ignored.
Consider this..."Then the LORD God formed the man from dust of the ground. HE breathed the breathe of life into the man's nostrils, and the man became a living person."
-Genesis 2:7
But don't miss the NOTE FROM TED below the video. They flagged this video for a warning.
Just like President Trump is OUR President!
@@lindabeck9824 nice linda ..
It's the deep breathing and meditation that's been there forever and it works Everytime. We are all one and connected and yes that includes all lives and trees and etc
Amazing. The honesty behind her talk was what kept me focused. Not only did this bring me awareness but it also helped me to reflect on what’s important in life.
Rhythmic flow of energy = Healthy body = No disease since flow of energy is harmonic.
Brilliantly explained by the speaker 👌👌
Can we appreciate her and say thank you, she talking to you for your healthy life
does anyone else notice the drastic change in her mood/energy at 2:02? it is like, "this is who I was before..... *SNAP* "This is who I am NOW." it's very poetic how she did that.
Fantastic talk. Direct, to the point, simple... simplistic... and helpful. Thank you.
I was intensely depressed, happened to listen to this talk and practice, I must say I felt a lot better. Thank you.
That's awesome! How are you doing with this now ?
I am so very glad a short talk could shift your mood and perspective. It's my sincerest wish you see how powerful you are. Keep dropping inward. Blessings, Lynsie
@@lynsiemckeown5639 watched the video again. Felt really good after practicing conscious breathing. Thanks again.
@@teejayandmarissa The key is to practice, I get to do these when I get time, have not been able to habitually do it yet. I am hoping to get there.

Jim 🇬🇧 .
Can't remember watching a Ted talk as good as that, absolutely brilliant!
That is a huge compliment Chris. I am touched that you found a small part of my story impactful. I wish you the best on your journey.
I am so excited for my future 🖤🙏🏽
Beautiful speech Lynsie! Thank you so much for sharing your precious experience.
Breath is the key to all fulfilled life and the one who doesn't breath properly can't live properly.
Love and peace from France
thank you🙏 lynsie for your lovely words and breath.
let us enjoy breathing again
Bow down! The best n most simplified talk on *breathe consciousness*.
What an amazing Talk Lynsie! Perfectly explained and said. You are an inspiration. Thank you
Poetic exposition conveying wisdom with great charm and humility. An especially good TED talk!
Thank you for your very kind words. Much appreciation, Lynsie
Lynsie,
Thank you for your vulnerability in sharing your personal story. I found myself in some of that description. I have had an on and off practice of breath work. I know the benefits. In coming across this talk I have been reintroduced to it. Your calm presence, soft voice and authenticity is welcomed and received. .
What a great talk, love the way she opens up about her life and turns it around for the better--EXCELLENT!!!
Thank you, Lynsie. This brought me back to my mindfulness practice and reminded me how deeply important deep breathing really is. Your "junk drawer" visual really helped me, I understood what you meant by it and how breathing from your gut does bring awareness to things and feelings we don't want to face. I felt that and it brought up times where I was so afraid to do something because I didn't want to waste my time away from playing a game on my phone, that when I pushed through the fear and did the thing anyway I felt a strength come over me. Your talk reminded me to incorporate my mindfulness practice back into my days.
I was walking outside while listening to your talk, I walk fast so when you were deep breathing with the audience I was slowing my walk, slowing my breathing and I had to stop so I could get the full benefit of your exercise. I think I stopped at some random person's house, lol. When the exercise was done and I opened my eyes I was staring at a green field with a nice big tree. I had a big smile on my face.
It helped me rid my walk of the noise of my thoughts of the future plans I haven't made yet.
I will be practicing my mindfulness more today and every day.
YES! I literally want to get up and dance, this makes me so happy to read. The pull of distractions, whether it be the phone, daily chores, etc, is powerful but when you find the determination to step away from them and into something more nurturing and healing you take your power back. Our time is precious. Thank you so very much for sharing.
One of the best impactful ted talk ever......you are awesome.
Incredibly Powerful and Empowering, what a Gift! Thank you.
Thank you Janet for commenting so kindly.

I'm from India.. Awesome speech..... Conveyed the best....also you ended your speech with namskar..Indian way of bowing down to others and thanking others... This shows your huge gratitude and honesty towards yoga and your gurus... Literally I had tears in my eyes..... Thank you so much mam...
Tamilachi tamilachi ❤️🙏🏼😇
What a lovely response that warms my heart. Thank you for your kind remarks. So few take the time to be kind and generous. I greatly appreciate it. Blessings, Lynsie
@@lynsiemckeown5639 Thanks
Lynsie, it is clearly evident from your talk, that you are a beautiful soul..
Lynsie, such courage. Great talk. Love the topic.
Thank you. It definitely tested me and put me in a vulnerable spot light, but I knew I had to do it.
Apart from the incredibly fascinating way of making this simple... You ve got a very powerful energy. Its as if you were here. Oh yes, you are. Cheers from Tangier.
Sooo on point, this talk deserves a lot more views. A straight message very well presented and so many benefits to be gained from this teaching.
Thanks for putting this out there .
Very kind of you to say. I appreciate your willingness to share your positive views.
MildManneredMerciful Doctors know this simple method could save lives.. and sanity.. it’s that simple! We don’t hear them offering this advice.. Maybe the odd one or two, it’s truly shocking.. There really needs to be more awareness on MSM about this info that is healing ppl! .. There’s lots of information on it, but why not openly! 🤯🤯
MildManneredMercifulMouse well stated
deserves wayy more views
It's all talk and hardly anything about technique.
What a great video. She's really helping people. I'm learning about breathing and I have my own trauma that I need to come to terms with and understand.
That was POWERFUL 🙏💯🤗🙌May the love of God, that passes all understanding, be with you and yours💜
Thank you for the lovely blessing.
Absolutely fantastic. Brilliant. Feel at peace instantly just by following her breathing exercises from this video. What a great, honest teacher she is. Well done and thank you. 🙏
So very kind of you to write this note. I hope you'll join us on my CZcams Channel for more support 🙏

Thanks Lynsie.
An excellent presentation, well structured, honest and with one simple truth for everyone to take away with them into their everyday lives
Chris, thank you for this lovely comment. It's best to keep it simple. Our lives are already feeling too complex. Simple tools for profound support.
I really enjoyed your talk - thank you. I started meditating approx 5 years ago and recently I have stopped. However, I still recognise the power in just one breath when it is needed.
Hmm, why have you stopped meditating, if you don't mind me asking?
Gorgeous talk! Thank you for sharing your wisdom.
Thanks to your support:)
@Lynsie McKeown, very nicely put together and how to make choices versus routine of useless time and how we should use it for us to use effectively. Thank you!
Thanks for the reflection. It's so easy to get distracted and unconsciously waste time, then feel stressed as if we don't have enough.
Absolutely amazing , i wish i can talk to you about my anxiety and my thoughts
Yoga❤ Thanks for beautiful presentation
Those who are new this OSHO message word by word. And very nicely presented.
Thanks for that Lynsie!
Of course! Thank you for commenting.
Just practicing the short guided meditation in 2nd half of her talk calmed me down on a stressful day. Amazing! Did a better job in those 5 minutes than stuff I have on my meditation app, which happens to be good. Definitely will be looking for a good teacher. Thanks Lynsie
Wonderful! Come join me on my CZcams Channel for more. I'd be happy to continue to offer support!
Glad I found this. Thank you for your message.
You are very welcome, Andy.

So simple, so powerful. And we can all do it, right?! I'm stoked you feel it too!
best ted talk ever heard!! 💕💕💕💕
thank you!
Ever since I watched that first video on breathing, I have been bombarded with videos on breathing by Ted. I have watched many of them. Some tell you to breath deeply while others tell you to take short breaths. I don't know how to breath anymore.
Basically, too deep causes too much of air in your system (not sure if it's oxygen or the other I forgot the English name of), this might cause more problems than fix them.
Too shallow and you're with a lack of breath.
It's all about that middle ground where you don't push yourself to breath in. Just breath in, and when you feel tension (non stress kind) exhale again.
@@MorriganJade I have yet to watch one which says to breathe moderately. It is either deep or shallow.
Hi Salim. Yes, it can get very confusing. It is always best to find a teacher who can help you with your specific needs because not all techniques are meant for everyone at every point in their lives. A general rule of thumb is to start with a 1:1 ratio of breath. Take deeper breaths that are smooth and even. Don't worry about the volume to start, but more about how even and smooth you can control the breath. If you breathe in for 3 counts, breathe out for 3 counts, then you can work your way up in volume. There are various techniques, but this is the first step that is the foundation for other techniques. You can find a video on my CZcams Channel for Complete Breathing (diaphragmatic breathing) which will walk you through the steps. If you have more questions, drop me a line there.
Incredible, this is clarity! I remember now.
Curious what you remember now, Tim? :)
What it is like to let go of ideas and thinking.
I want to practice this everyday. Thank you.
So good and relaxing mindful breathing is what we all need thank you Lynsie
Thanks a lot. I had reached the crossroads. You showed me the right path. Jai Shiv Shakti
