The Power of Your Breath with James Nestor Reviews

4.8 Rating 92 Reviews
I’ve been a fan of James Nestor, since reading his book, breath, two years ago. This is a great follow up to that book.

It is breath taking! Nice to see him do the excercises, explaining them and doing them together. Just loving it. Greetings from Belgium

I am watching first before reading through. Mostly doing one a day. I am overwhelmed by the number of various exercises covered in the first 4 lessons. Impossible to do and remember them all. I am sure this was not meant to be how I should approach the course, but doing it this way seemed natural. I also don't feel I need all the background information. Now and then he misspeaks and the videos should be edited. For example today he said I would not be doing the floor exercises with a book on my stomach for 30 breaths, but watching him, but later he indicated I should be doing them.

So far the course has been well paced, interesting and really well delivered with the right balance of theory and practice. I am enjoying the course very much although it is early days I am already feeling significant benefit from the breathing practices.

It is informative and very "unpushy" about the lessons it aims to teach, in the sense that Mr. Nestor makes no claims of knowing or offering "wonder cures" of any kind. The approach is pitch-perfect for someone earnestly interested in improving his or her basic breathing habits and in reaping the potential benefits but wary of people purporting to offer miraculous life improvements. He comes across as sincere, unassuming and deeply convinced about what he has to offer, but loathe to overstate the case.

I love James Nestor, he’s easy to watch and listen to, has a dry sense of humour and is very knowledgeable.
