Your Breathing Pattern Is Driving Your Stress and Negative Thinking — John Hall on How to Change It Intentionally

Most people treat stress and negative thinking as mental problems that require mental solutions — more discipline, more positive self-talk, more effort to think differently. John Hall works with a different entry point: the breath. Intentional breathing is one of the most direct routes into the nervous system available to you, and most people are doing it in a way that keeps them locked in exactly the cycle they are trying to escape. He joins Stacey Chillemi to break down how breathwork actually works — not as a relaxation technique, but as a tool for interrupting the feedback loop between physical tension, stress, and the negative thought patterns that follow. What he shares about how to use intentional breathing to reduce stress in real time, why the way you breathe affects your confidence and mental clarity more than most people realize, and the specific practices that help you build a more positive and peaceful inner environment will make you think differently about something you have been doing every moment of your life without paying attention to it. You already have everything you need for this. You just have not been using it on purpose. Website:  Become a supporter of this podcast: .
