Try this, while inhaling for 6 sec imagine soaring up in the sky like an eagle. During the 2 sec while you hold your breath imagine floating in space or under water then while you exhale for 7 sec imagine going down in a roller coaster. Add feelings to this imagination process. Repeat it whenever you're stressed out. Your brain will become better oxygenated and start seeing things from a calmer perspective. Substitute these experiences in your mind's eye with whatever pleasurable experiences that you would like to achieve a higher state of calmness. Thanks for the video.
Awesome tip for practicing the breathing technique at the grocery store esp. when you've forgotten your shopping list. It's a great solution to boost your memory. IN ACTION! Thank you Brian.,
that 6+2+7 has CHANGED MY LIFE (for the better). Been doing it consistently since I saw this video initially a couple months ago. It helped a lot with dealing with my small children on our current Disney trip. Thanks Mr. Johnson!!
I know this was 8 years ago but it's probably my fourth or fifth time watching it. I routinely bookmark my favorites of your videos and then we listen to them over and over again. Thank you so much for all the work you did and do so that we have access to this massive library of insight education and inspiration!
Thank you so much JonathanLoganPDX! We are glad our videos like +1s and PNTVs help people become inspired to be the best version of their selves. We appreciate all of you Heroes! ❤️ - Team Heroic Get the Heroic App and start Activating your Heroic Potential, TODAY! Join free: heroic.us/join
You are awesome Brian. I don't start my day with out reading your email. You keep me focused and inspired! Because of you I am training to be a meditation facilitator. I always wanted to do it so now is the right time!! Keep inspiring, always!!
Sejal Patel WOW! That's amazing, Sejal. Thanks for sharing. I'm honored to be a part of your life and excited to continue to optimize and serve together! :)
Controlling the breathing patterns works well but not always when I need it in a crisis situation. What I realized is that with consistent practice throughout the day it makes me feel more centered and grounded and as a result I can react better when crisis comes!
elenafissa Love it!! Getting really good at controlling our breath in the little moments throughout the day is a HUGE practice to help us prepare for the bigger ones! :)
elenafissa Yes!! Reminds me: I was prepping for our Confidence 101 class next month and loved this gem from Mark Divine's Unbeatable Mind: “Stress and success are defined by choice, and it is the small choices, not the big ones, that make the difference between good and excellent.”
***** I absolutely agree on that. The small everyday choices, sometimes even habitual choices, are the ones that build both the foundation and the path for your goal to come alive. And this is exactly why your work magnetizes me. The essence of your work is all about the little every day steps we need to take if we want greatness, if we want fulfilling lives! This is the message your work puts out there, in my opinion.
You are really doing a great work for peoples ....... thanx brother god may bless u ...becouse u many lives gonna revive Again ... your work is like worship
@@HeroicBrian you are really doing great ........... your book summery are really awesome ..... but i think u should ..... give pdf link free and make summerys on productive books like .... phycology and philosers like think and grow rich grit ..
Another great video! Guru Johnson, you are overloading me with great information! I really like the thought replacement process. Also, I like the +1 game.
Thankx so much #BrianJohnson !! just good stuff , very inspiring and clear as always ...I'm still on the challenging balance between long term meditation time and regular physical activities... same as making potential plan vs living in the present time ....I love your pragmatism
Hi Brian! I just discovered your channel and really like it. It's great the way that you sumarize great books in 15 minutes. In my morning miracle ritual I'll watch one of your videos each morning, or perhaps one video the whole week to better keep in mind what you present us. Great work! regards from Mexico.

+Brian Johnson Yes I did! in fact it was the video I discovered your channel with. I began just yesterday my miracle morning ritual based on your video. Hope you'll continue making videos!
Thanks for the breathing exercises! Needed it after tonight. Also, this is the second time I've heard about the "ready, fire, aim" idea. Thinking the universe is trying to tell me something :)
This "pink elephant" trick works for sneezing (at least for me). When I'm about to sneeze I usually think of a raspberries (it can be anything) and then I just don't sneeze. I know that sounds nuts but it works for me
Brian, do u have an review of: think like an warrrior? from Brian Donnelly? I have that book, trying to read it. same as Mark Divine's books, which I havent started yet, but thanks 2 ur reviews!!!
Outstanding as always! Deep appreciation for all the phenomenal wisdom you shared Brian it has helped me tremendously. I've downloaded almost all of your notes (pdfs and audio). Question: Do you have an internship program at all?
Dougie Forlano Hi Dougie: Thank you!! Thrilled you're diggin' it and appreciate your kind words. Right now I'm focused on just ONE thing: Teaching via my membership program/PN + these videos but what are you thinking re: the internship?!
***** Absolutely! I dig them deeply. Tremendous reverence for that Garry Keller would be proud haha. I was thinking I could assist, help and support you with your One Thing of making these videos and everything that is involved in the process. This could make it easier so you could fully focus on obtaining the material and delivering it.
Dougie Forlano I appreciate that very much, Dougie! I'm blessed to have a ninja who helps with all the systems and we're almost at a place where I'm exclusively focused on exactly what you described. Thank you for thinking of me and here's to the One Thing!!! :)
Awesome stuff AGAIN! I'm sticking with this one: Ready, Fire, Aim was my favorite. I'm actually implementing it tomorrow. (I did the ready part. Hah) 21 covers in 21 days. Going to use Lanny's Self-Image technique for this one! Keep up the awesomeness. Loving it!
Shit, I'm not able to breathe for 15s...I have to practice it. I was feeling calmer than during my morning meditation while practicing this, thanks Brian! Will include this in my meditation :)
You really do inspire me! I feel like I want to read all of these books, but they don't have them in Sweden, do you know were I can get my hand on them? Have a great day!
I'm looking for some more books like this, really liked this one, do you have anything to recommend? It would mean a lot if there is a free pdf version, like I found of this one. Anyways, thanks for theese videos, been looking for something like this.
Thank you Brian! The breathing works so well! aha. Can I give you a bit of hopefully constructive advice? I like that you have the big ideas on the board but to me it seems unnecessary for us to watch you write things like aim aim aim aim aim when you could just act it out or something. I've seen you write things before when I feel you could have just spoken or acted it out. Just a few thoughts I've had, maybe they're a little too critical, but hopefully you can make some use of them. Your videos nonetheless are top notch in quality and I'm thoroughly enjoying them! :D

i liked point five the most becuase we spend a lot of time aiming and getting ready without action..
Ahmad Shahrour Amen to that, Ahmad!
As i know that stammering problem is a psychological one..can these mental exercises cure it..???
Why do you only exhale for four seconds. I find it hard too.
Awesome! :-)
