Breathe How You Want to Feel

Your Breathing Tool Kit for Better Health, Restorative Sleep, and Deeper Connection

De: Matteo Pistono

Narrado por: Matteo Pistono

Breathwork guide and meditation teacher Matteo Pistono offers a how-to book for upgrading your nervous system to live your optimal life physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

Do you want to calm your racing thoughts before lying down for a restful night of sleep? Or raise your energy levels before your morning exercise or spin class, and have laser focus before an important meeting? Are you overwhelmed from the flood of information from your social media and news feed? Any time your emotional state is out of balance, there are time-tested, practical methods to breathe your way back into the state of being you want.

You have the capacity to change how you feel, in any moment, when you partner with your breath. It’s a matter of paying attention and then consciously altering your breathing pattern.

Too often books on breathing and breathwork coaches do not teach the actual mechanics of breathing. Instead, they guide one-off sessions, teach protocols, or direct you to an app. The consequence of just following a protocol without understanding breathing mechanics leaves the student disempowered and dependent on the teacher. Instead, in Breathe How You Want to Feel, learning functional breathing becomes the basis upon which you gain control of your well-being—it’s the secret tool behind resiliency.

Breathe How You Want to Feel offers you a psychophysical tool kit that includes:
· awareness building,
· understanding the dials of your nervous system,
· the importance of nasal breathing,
· how breath holds (even when very short) are a superpower, and
· how to integrate optimal breathing throughout your everyday life, especially when you're sleeping.

You’ll use these tools to optimize your breathing to overcome being tired, wired, and uninspired. You’ll learn how to breathe optimally during your workday, while exercising, when entering meditative and flow states, and for deep rest. And you’ll partner with your breath to discover deeper meaning in life. This book meets you, the breather, where you are with step-by-step actionable tools to improve your health, sleep, and well-being.

The title says it all! Instant classic.

This has all the fundamentals to breathe how you want to feel, to live, and to die. Instant classic.

Turn your breath into your superpower!

Pistono combines personal storytelling and the spiritual foundations of various breathing methods with a modern understanding of physiology and practical applications for daily life. The book is a toolkit for personalizing your journey with the breath because everyone is unique. His AIR framework—Awareness, Intervention, and Regulation—is an invaluable strategy for taking control of your mental and physical state for a better and deeper experience of life.

I love the guided practices in this audio edition. It's so helpful to hear the book in Pistono's own voice and do the practices with him. At the same time, I've purchased the print edition as my go-to reference when I want to revisit the practices at my own pace.

a must read for everyone interested in finding out about breathwork

Beautiful, simple and insightful. the narration is equal to having your own breathwork facilitator in the room with you and gently guides you throught the different techniques.

“Breathe is the missing pillar of health”

This practical guide book will change your life. Pistono takes us on a breathtaking journey that enriches our hearts and minds.

Life-changing book + guided practices

I bought this book in paperback and immediately realized I would benefit from the Audible version in different ways, so I purchased both. In this Audible version, I love the guided practices set to music and read aloud by the author Matteo Pistono. With the Audible version, I can listen repeatedly. As noted in my Amazon paperback review, this book will change your life if you work it. After trying many other areas of healing (diet, trauma therapy, acupuncture, reiki, etc.), a dear friend and healer shared this book with me. Matteo Pistono provides powerful tools we always have with us - learning how to breathe and how to work with our breathing to balance our nervous system, raise energy levels, rest, and focus. Matteo teaches all of this as you listen to this book. He also sprinkles in interesting stories from his fascinating life and journey. I highly recommend this book in print and audio form! And if you ever have a chance to participate in one of his breathwork events, take it! I had the blessing of doing a 20-minute group session with him as part of this book launch with divine music by Michelle Anise, and my heart rate went to the level of sleeping immediately. So powerful. I will listen, read, re-listen, re-read, and share with others. Thank you so much, Matteo!
