The Healing Power of the Breath: Simple Richard Brown & Patricia Gerbarg
Here is a drug-free, natural solution to common stress and mood problems—developed by two physician pioneers in Integrative Medicine. Millions of people suffer from stress and trauma-related issues including anxiety, depression, poor sleep, and relationship problems; and most would prefer not to take medication due to troublesome side effects, withdrawal symptoms, disappointing success rates, and rising costs.

In their own voices, Drs. Richard P. Brown and Patricia L. Gerbarg share the methods they have used for twenty years to build stress resilience and reduce the negative effects of stress and trauma on the mind, the emotions, and the capacity for close healthy relationships. These simple breathing and movement techniques are drawn from yoga, Buddhist meditation, the Chinese practice of qigong, Orthodox Christian monks, and other sources. These methods have been scientifically shown to be effective in alleviating specific stress, anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and many other conditions. The authors explain how breathing practices activate communication pathways between the mind and the body, positively impacting the brain and calming the stress response. They also provide guidance to help make the practices an ongoing part of daily life.

This audiobook, containing the entirety of the original edition along with some updates from the authors, provides breathing techniques to help relieve:
anxiety, depression, and insomnia trauma-related emotions and behaviors post-traumatic stress disorder addiction-related behaviors mental and physical fatigue
It also offers breathing techniques to enhance concentration, productivity, peak performance, and personal relationships.
