Breathwork, Meditation & Transformational Healing with Niraj Naik

Niraj Naik, the Renegade Pharmacist and founder of Soma Breath is with Angela discussing how breathwork and meditation are the keys to transformational healing

Key Takeaways

Soma breath is a combination of transformational techniques and music can have an important therapeutic use
Your default state should be nasal silent, subtle, rhythmic and diaphragmatic
Without CO2 you can’t get oxygen off your blood cells and into your body tissue cells
Low body tissue oxidation is the cause of chronic disease, your cells are starved of oxygen
You need the right level of CO2 in the body to maintain a gaseous exchange
The perfect yoga breathing extends the exhalation and has a pause
The foundation of flow state is being in alignment with what you are doing
The clutter in your mind impacts the flow states
Humming is a great hack for switching off stress
The best immovable object is your own body and it can be used effectively in functionalised symmetric training
Practices to let go of unresolved trauma and emotion are the foundations for optimal well being
When you know what you want you can use magic to get what you want faster
We are all powerful manifesters and everything that happens is a result of the inner world
Cultivate peace of mind, create an alignment with your values, and figure out what you really want and need and life becomes a magical journey
All day long we are manifesting It uses sexual lifeforce energy for a higher purpose
and most people are manifesting what they don’t want because they don’t know what they do want
In order to do something you need to do it every day, bringing the musical elements makes it more enjoyable and so easier to make part of your everyday routine
