Life With Breath Podcast W. Dr. Tanmeet Sethi, Integrative & Psychedelic Physician

In this recording, Christopher Murphy explains the differences between thought observation and the Taoist practice of sitting and forgetting. He examines how actively restraining the mind through practices like chitta nirodha contrasts with letting go of past attachments to quiet the thought process. Murphy also discusses other methods—such as self-inquiry and breath control—that help dissolve the habitual patterns of thought and ultimately lead to a more present, clear state of consciousness. (Part of a Q&A session given on February 25, 2024)

Dealing With the Problem of Thought

Fyrkanten

I was commissioned to compose a 15 minute track that could be used for breathwork exercises. I was inspired by the shamanic vibes of other breathwork tracks, so I wanted to capture something similar here. The idea was to code and assign inhales, exhales and breath holds to various sounds in the track (a chime, a short drum roll and a gong, respectively) so that there would be no need make a voice-over that would say "IN", "OUT", "HOLD". This track is also ideal as background music for those who do yoga and other forms of exercise due to its repetitiveness and its long form.

Cheers for listening and Namaste :)

In this Best of Awake in the World episode, Michael Stone and Grant Hutchinson teach the ways yogic breathing returns the nervous system to "factory settings." Topics include ujjayii pranayama, the palette, the spine and viola pranayama. Pranayama is a practice of settling your attention on your breath. As attention becomes balanced, so too does the nervous system.  Recorded on February 6, 2012.

Awakening Sun Breathwork is a guided breathwork practice designed to activate your energy, calm your nervous system, have visionary experiences and connect you with your inner light.

This session begins with Breath of Fire to ignite your inner fire, followed by double breathing to deepen focus and emotional release. The rhythm builds gently and intuitively, preparing your body and mind for a final round of conscious breathing and breath holds — helping you enter a space of clarity, vision, and inner peace.

It’s more than a practice — it’s a daily ritual rooted in presence, expansion, and spiritual activation.
