Here’s a drug-free, side-effect free solution to common stress and mood problems—developed by two physicians. Millions of Americans suffer from mood problems and stress-related issues including anxiety, depression, insomnia, and trauma-induced emotions and behaviors; and most would prefer not to take medication for their conditions due to troublesome side effects, withdrawal symptoms, and disappointing success rates.
Drs. Richard P. Brown and Patricia L. Gerbarg provide a drug-free alternative that works through a range of simple breathing techniques 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 and mood challenges such as anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder, and many others. The authors explain how breathing practices activate communication pathways between the mind and the body, positively impacting the brain and calming the stress response. The enclosed audio program guides readers through the techniques and helps make these breathing practices an ongoing part of daily life.
This book and CD set includes breathing techniques to relieve
• anxiety and depression
• trauma-related emotions and behaviors
• post-traumatic stress disorder
• insomnia
• addiction-related behaviors
It also offers breathing techniques to enhance concentration, peak performance, and personal relationships.

"Not sure a whole book is needed to cover this procedure but I've doing 10-20 minutes everyday for a month now and believe I will continue as it is easy and very calming. Also useful when you are waiting, like at the doctors office or in the car. Definitely use the Coherent Clock as an aid."

- If I could give this book 20 stars I would. It is a deceptively easy technique and different from any other breathing practice I have ever done.... and I have tried many! I have read at least 20 books on breathing and different techniques and I finally found something that truly works! Initially, I bought this book hoping to make my breathing more fluid. I had a tendency to hold my breath. Not only do I no longer hold my breath, it brought a level of calmness to my life that was completely unexpected. I have given away at least 5 copies of this book and have recommended it to countless others. Do yourself a favor and try this!!!!!
- I haven't read the book yet but I wanted to post right away that the audio files are available for download with the edition. All you need to do is open the reading sample of the book from the book page and part way in there is a link to the audio files. I easily downloaded them and saved them to my computer and then sent them to my android phone.
I will update this post once I finish the book. - My Tai Chi Teacher started using this CD in our class for part of Qigong breathing and meditation. We listen to the track with the chimes. One chime breathing in...the next chime breathing out. The doctor's voices are very soothing and relaxing. It is a wonderful way to relax and meditate. This is a wonderful book with the CD inside. The book very easy to understand, I enjoyed the explanations of "Healing with breath" which is much needed in this busy world where we seldom take time for ourselves. Everyone in my class loves it! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to know the proper way to breath and meditate and wants a relaxing soothing CD and good informative book to read.
- Yoga pranyama or breathing techniques used for literally thousands of years to regulate sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are finally becoming mainstream treatments for Anxiety, Insomnia, PTSD, and Depression. In my Trauma Sensitive Yoga and Mood Enhancing Yoga classes I sometimes encounter patients that are septical about yoga practices so I readily refer them to the Healing Power of the Breathe written and practiced by physicians. It's okay that they have westernized the practice of ujjayi pranayama by renaming it "resistance breathing" perhaps because there is a slight constriction of the throat during exhale resulting in the ocean sounding vibration that results.This of course becomes both an anchor to the present for PTSD patients and a vagus nerve stimulation for Depression patients. My patients in the psychiatric clinic that pranyama or breathing techniques are more valuable for them then the asanas, meditation or chanting acquired during my classes. Dennis Pelon, PhD,RYT

- Dr. Richard Brown brings his wide-ranging and deep knowledge of ancient breathing practices that he has studied with world class masters. His straightforward teaching brings the benefit of these important techniques to everyone in easy to follow directions. Anyone can gain the enormous benefits of breathing exercises using the techniques that Dr. Brown teaches. An accompanying cd disc contains several very easy breathing sessions lead by Dr. Brown. I highly recommend this book!
- once you get the audios they really help you learn to control your breathing.
- Love this book! Easy to practice, and follow directions. Breath work is a necessary part of my life. I am so grateful I found this book.
