The 10 Year Breathwork Plan : Breath Club Q&A LIVE

There has never been a time when we have more evidence that the real work happens inside, and there has never been a time with more outside distractions.

While it might sound easy to direct you attention inwards, this is a skill that takes time and regular practice. You don't just do it one day and finish either. This is a lifelong practice that never ends but gets better the more you do it.

Breathe. Be. And remember that there is wisdom inside of you!

You've probably heard of box breathing.

Four counts in. Four counts hold. Four counts out. Four counts hold.

Lt. Col. Dave Grossman popularized it in On Combat, and it rippled through military and law enforcement communities as the go-to breathwork technique for high-stress professionals.

It works. The research supports it. We teach it.

But here's what most programs miss:

Box breathing used only in a crisis moment is like buying a fire extinguisher and never learning fire prevention.

The true power of breath training for first responders is in building a daily practice that recalibrates the nervous system over time, improving Heart Rate Variability (HRV), reducing baseline sympathetic arousal, and building real CO₂ tolerance so the body doesn't panic under physiological stress.

Research shows that as few as 6 breaths per minute for 20 minutes per day can overhaul the health of the vagal system in under six weeks of consistent practice, improving HRV, lowering blood pressure, and improving mood.

(Vaschillo et al., Resonance Frequency Breathing research)

Box breathing is a phrase.
Breath training is learning the language.

There's a big difference.

Comment "DMT" to get access to my most recent episode of The Breath Lab on YouTube. If you want to read further, the link to this Substack article is in the description box with all of my sources.

It is time for the breathwork world to grow up and leave this behind. This is just one of the things that has held us back for years, mostly because noobs keep passing it around!

FULL DUSCLOSURE: I WAS ONE OF THEM FOR MANY YEARS!

I remember when I first learned "DMT Breathing" and in that very session, there was discussion around how this claim probably wasn't true. So, we renamed it "Power Breathing" back in 2016.

There were a lot of other names that were thrown around. I was actually partial to 's idea- "Void Breathing." Of course, back then, I didn’t want to let go of the possibility of DMT release, so I was a part of the noob telephone game that I'd like to see end now.

The truth is that we are still finding out more about what is happening when we do deep breathwork sessions. We don't fully understand what is happening, and that is fine.

One thing is for sure- what is happening in deep breathwork sessions is incredibly powerful and must be approached with care.

But to move forward we need to leave these old artifacts behind.

You can learn the skills you need to approach this kind of breathwork safely and effectively in my new course Building Capacity for Altered State Breathwork that I produced with the very talented Neuroscientist / Breathworker .aki_lab To get access to that course, comment BREATH

Our course takes you step by step into the process of building the capacity to safely get the deepest experiences using altered state breathwork, and then, you go deeply into a session that you have access to for life.

Breathwork can open doors to altered states of consciousness that can lead to profound insights an inner healing. It can also lead to a whole host of problems that few talk about.

Your nervous system deserves a foundation, and you deserve to get the most out of these practices without fear of doing self harm.

This isn't about chasing peak experiences. It's about building the awareness and safety to actually meet them.

Go deeper while protecting yourself from the dangers you may not know about.

Comment BREATH below. I'll send you the course directly.

A 2023 study published in Psychological Injury and Law examined the effect of tactical breathing on student soldiers in a randomized controlled design.

The conclusion?

Tactical breathing increases first-shot accuracy.

"Tactical breathing is a valuable stress management skill that can improve shooting performance in high-risk occupations."

(PMC11622642, Psychological Injury and Law, 2023)

But here's what that study is really telling us:

Under stress, cognition degrades. Fine motor skills degrade. Decision-making degrades.
Breath training creates a buffer against that degradation.

Not by eliminating stress, but by giving the practitioner a direct, in-the-moment tool to modulate their autonomic response and preserve function when it matters most.

This is why tactical breathing belongs in every academy. Not as a side note in a wellness class, but as a core operational skill trained early and often.

If your department doesn't have a structured breath training program, let's have a conversation.
