Changed my life!
This book changed my life more than any book since... Born to Run back in 2009? It's full of amazing information, super fun to read, and is, like I said, life-changing. I snore a bit, my endurance is less than I'd like, and often I find myself just a bit low on energy. What this book taught me was that all things are connected! It's the breath (obviously). What's more, through a few simple exercises all of it can be safely and easily cured. Why didn't my doctor tell me this? It's all in here... and it works! I literally feel better because I bought and read this book. Plus, the book is really just a lot of fun to read. It's a worthy worthy follow up to Nestor's last book, DEEP, and this one just gets deeper and wierder and even more full of adventure. My favorite part is the chapter about how the human skull has changed over the last couple hundred years because of changes in how we breath. It could have been really boring -- but Nestor doesn't just write about it, he actually goes to Paris, crawls into a sewer, and breaks into the secret catacombs below the city to actually hold a hundreds of year old skull Hamlet-style. ("Alas poor Yorik..." &c. ) You actually see the skull and how they change! Unforgettable stuff. IMHO The book is a must read and must buy...
