Yo Matt, the epiphany, that you make your happiness based on other peoples happiness is a good indicator for something that you have to work on now. make yourself free. Doesn't mean that you stop caring about other people. Just stop making your happiness depending on others. If you don't know how, then send me a dm on my instagram maximocasas.de
6:21 "My happiness didn't matter if she wasn't happy." this line hit me so hard. goddamn it. i'm not crying, my eyes are just sweaty from all the breathing.
This is very much what my first breathwork experience was like. I went in open to trying the practice but was not prepared for the immense impact and emotional release I experienced. That initial session was definitely like trying a drug for the first time-- I've done breathwork a few times after that but none have been as impactful as that first high. I got the "crab hands" that Matt experienced (which our guide had cautioned us about before we started the practice). I had cold sweats, I cried, I laughed and my limbs shook and contorted in ways I wasn't able to control. The whole experience is similar to what I imagine an ayahuasca ceremony to be like. After the practice ended, I was in an incredibly lifted/ euphoric state. It was surreal. If you have the opportunity to experience a guided breathwork class, I highly recommend it. If nothing else, it makes for an interesting afternoon and story to tell.
I loved this video! I have started Kundalini yoga a few weeks back, which is also heavily focussed on the breath and chanting. The first time I cried like a baby and there was absolutely nothing I could have done to make it stop. Your sister is a gem and what you said about Nathalie was beautiful! So happy to see you two went to do this together and thank you for sharing your experience with us.
I love throwing myself into things like this, just random social activities, because i know i will learn something no matter what it is, and it always has some kind of positive outcomes
I love how you show and talk about the challenges and give a full-rounded perspective. There's definitely work in breathwork but it truly is so transformative!
- CO2 decrease in blood causes alkalosis- increased ph- which causes calcium decrease in blood as it binds with albumin protein which increases the excitability of nerves which causes tetany and the other tingling sensations ....... -it decreases oxygen transport by blood due to increased ph -it also decreases blood and oxygen supply to brain by about 30-45 percent as the blood vessels there gets squeezed due to it . - give us a high -There is also some evidence that brain when is in stress can release dmt . -it also activates parasympathetic system which gives us increased alpha and theta brain activity and the calm feeling ..........
I was a skeptic for years. I put everything you talked about under the same umbrella. Until I started breath work and meditation. It opened up a lot of doors to me. Someone who was never spiritual before, it was hard to discount the effects. Especially from someone who used to have intense dreams on a regular basis and resorted to substances to subdue them. Meditating and breath work almost immediately allowed me to control my dreams and emotions. If it works, it works.
Doing it for a couple hours will send your ass into the cosmos. I believe in this amazing work. The reason why people don’t like to do it is because it takes work… And people love to take a pill or anything else to get them in the feels. It’s a true healing practice.
For three reasons it will not be the same at home: 1) being in nature alone without distractions is meditational and healing 2) doing any activities in a group is always more effective. Thats why muslims are recommended to do praying in groups than alone. 3) anything first time experience is always novel and spontaneous. You have no experience and your mind is open. When you try to force yourself to repeat the experience and you have some expectations as how it should go then you have already closed your mind.
Doing this is a group is great for extroverts. Not always for introverts. And hyperventilating while focusing is what this is. All effects relate to these too things. Nothing magic. Enjoy if it makes you feel relaxed and focused.
Breathwork is the most powerful, free and easy way to create well-being that I know. As a result, I avoid doing it as much as possible. I'm now down to about 1 minute a day - the most joy I can let in at the moment. I've come to the conclusion that some part of me is not OK feeling joyful and happy because it's a huge identity shift and then "I don't know who I am, why I am or who I will become or what comes next." It's worth noting that most people stay chronically miserable or just comfortable in mediocre lives rather than go through this uncertainty. I love how easy breathwork is - because it highlights that the real challenge is not knowing what works or how to be happier, but navigating the fear of the unknown that every ego feels when they face fundamental change of self-definition.
TLDR: hyperventilation -> temporarily low calcium level in blood -> inability of muscles to relax -> spasms As a doctor, the cause for the tetany (carpopedal spasm in this instance) is quite simple. Hyperventilation of any cause leads to your serum ionised calcium binding with proteins and giving you a transient low-calcium state. Without calcium your muscles have difficulty relaxing and you get the spasms you showed us in the video. Hope this helps!
Is it any dangerous? Also, I saw the Yes Theory documentary about Wim Hof and Matt actually had some sort of seizure/attack while doing the breahing, do you know what happened and why this happened?
@@jesser110 Shouldn't be dangerous BUT you can pass out so definitely do not do it in water or any other place where passing out could hurt you! And sorry, haven't seen that video you're referring to.
@@Saadabd912 thanks for your response! I am well aware of the passing out or starting to hyperventilate uncontrollably. what I am referring to, and this is the link (with timestamp so it starts at the right part), is this seizure like event that occurred: th-cam.com/video/8cvhwquPqJ0/w-d-xo.html He's not passing out, nor hyperventilating I think. take a look at what is happening to him, and what Wim does to him to calm him down. Any idea's?
@@jesser110 My apologies, I've just come off a super long shift and am totally a zombie! Just saw that video. I wonder if the guy suffers from some sort of seizures? I know absence seizures are almost always triggered in sufferers by hyperventilation but dunno what's happening here, sorry. I suspect he would have gotten better on his own though, I doubt Wim calming him down did that.
I cried when he got emotional about Natalie ❤️. I am a skeptic too and firmly believe in science and medicine but this sounds like an interesting type of meditation to try. Meditation in general makes me nervous because of repressed memories and emotions but I'll talk about it with my therapist. Great video.

Nick Leede It is over efficient in the lungs, but under effective in the tissue (the tissue can’t take the oxygen from blood because the the pH becomes too high)
I have been doing this for few months now and can confirm how amazing breath work is. I previously had a massive problem with anxiety and recently I have been doing amazing.
Matt, you are hilarious, thank you! I can't wait to binge watch your videos! I found you through your sister, who I know from the breathwork community from years past and here we all are in the present! I love it. Thanks for sharing your ART from your heart! Truly amazing gifts you have!
The hand thing is called Carpopedal spasm and can occur in the hands and feet, its often as a result of lowered C02 tension (not, Carbon Dioxide, not Monoxide as mentioned in the video) as a result of hyperventilation and is a classical / hallmark sign of an anxiety or panic attack and is often associated with painful spasms and numbness / tingling sensations. Fascinating that you didn't experience these sensations during what would normally be a painful experience.
The hand thing is interesting. I just came across the exact same "Mudra" the other day. "Mudra means “seal,” “gesture,” or “mark.” Yoga mudras are symbolic gestures often practiced with the hands and fingers. They facilitate the flow of energy in the subtle body and enhance one’s journey within."
My sister & I have a similar relationship...she lovvvveeesss “woo woo” stuff and I am a bit skeptical- she dragged me to a movie about mushrooms last night (fascinating stuff btw). Needless to say, She’s taught me to be open minded!!! It’s amazing what you can learn once you break down those barriers. Thanks for the informative video
Matt, I really liked this video. I think because it was so raw and I couldn't tell where it was going just as your personal experience was unfolding. Thank you for showing us such a candid view into your life!
I feel like you need to do this with Wim. Your sister can't teach you about "mens business" and instinctively I feel that is what you are needing atm. Some deep powerful work. Well done man.
I use 8D music for this grounding effect, as focusing on my breath makes me more uncomfortable, 8D /audiophile music makes anxiety and panic attacks disappear. The only caveat is that you need a decent pair of headphones for it to work properly.
I practiced meditation for 2 years and breath work for the last 2 months. My experience with breathwork was a rollercoaster. So happy but also so angry and depressed. So freaking emotional over little things and everything is 10 times more sensitive. I’m going over if I should stick to it or not
Life-long skeptic here as well, but I've done this (and a lot of yoga) and one thing I've learned is that there's more healing/wellness inside of us than I thought. From my own religious upbringing and life experience, I was trained to look for health OUTSIDE of myself. So, practices like this have been really quite beneficial for me.
Every time people came near, hug each other, and sit near my mind is flooded with the idea of social distancing even if the video was filmed before the covid outbreak.
For all those who stuff their feelings and perceptions in the name of science, we are physically made from dust...minerals, which have very specific, varied and unique qualities as they interact with eachother, and with sunlight, temperature, water, oxygen, co², etc...and IMO, "breath work" is a good example of the ways that our bodies are miraculously made to operate and self-heal, as well as how the physical connects to the spiritual. The caveat that I see being foolishly ignored most is forgetting that just as the existence of good and evil exist very clearly in our physical world, both good and evil also exist in the spiritual world...and evil always masquerades as something good...in the same way that food, sex and even water can result in both good and evil...life and death...depending on how it is pursued and/or utilized, as well as the underlying motives. The vital aspect of our motives circles back to one of the promises that our Creator has made: that He will give us the desires of our heart! The scary part is how easily our temporary physical perception and understanding is deceived when ignorant of the spiritual realm and its various influences...such as the ignorant desires of a child to run away from good parents and a good home because hebis not getting his way all the time...which correlates to 1/3rd of the angels doing the same thing, which resulted in the creation of hell which is the exact manifestation of their once naive understanding of being independent of their Creator and the WAY OF LIFE He has made clear to all in ancient Scripture. If you are not a father, try to imagine putting your life on the line regularly for your children, in love, and protecting them from things that you don't even want them to know about, for their own peace of mind...only to have them assume that you too operate with their own juvenile level of self-orientation and entitlement, and rebel against the authority and headship that virtually every living species recognizes in their parents. Of course, everyone has done that at some point or another, and every parent has experienced some degree of rebellion from their children, which our Creator designed to teach us about His love and hopeful guidance unto goodness, Truth and Light. †
I absolutely loved your video! Really like how you are opening up to the experience and to change your mind. I did my first breathwork session last week, it was life changing for me. Thought i knew a lot about spirituality, but this was something I've never experienced before. I've been a drug addict for years (4,5 years clean nowadays) and you're right, it absolutely is a drug like experience!
Interesting that you pointed out the "lobster claws," I remember having one bad panic attack in high school and noticed I could not move my hands from that position. I couldn't help but giggle at the name you gave it!
They also do this in Jewish Churches, as well. It happened to me. I walked up to the front of the church. One person praying, who was standing in front of me. Another guy was standing behind me. He blew air on the back of my neck with his mouth. Next thing you know, I ended up falling to the ground. As I laid on the flour, I started to feel this sense of joy & happiness overcome me. I started uncontrollably chuckling for no apparent reason at all. All of a sudden.. I couldn't move! I tried as hard as I could to sit up, but I couldn't. It was like some powerful force that over came me & held me down. Weird? Definitely yes! But this experience gave me amazing positive + feelings inside, similarly to your own meditation experience! God Blessed! #DoNotBeFooledTheRealTruthsComesFromAbove
You can also research polyvagal theory (sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous system) and see how breathwork helps release trapped trauma in the body. My thought is that your hand 'posture' could have been you intuitively doing a mudra.
Absolutely love this. I just started Wim Hof Method a couple weeks ago and I can relate 100%. Get "Lobster Claws" by round 5 every day. Breathe work is hard. It takes focus. I do it in the morning after the coffee with an empty stomach.
While doing most kinds of “breathwork” can certainly yield benefits for most people, PLEASE TEACH PEOPLE TO BREATHE THROUGH THEIR NOSE!! The nose and nasal cavities are evolutionarily designed for breathing. The mouth is just a backup system in the event that you cannot use your nose. Nasal breathing filters and humidifies air- the mouth does not. Nasal breathing harnesses nitric oxide which facilitates oxygen delivery to your blood cells. The mouth does not do this. Consistent and prolonged mouth breathing has many negative effects. Get James Nestor’s book “Breath”. Good luck.
I believe you had a powerful experience in the desert because there were people and friends beside you. I'm also a skeptic but emotional connection with people is as - or more - powerful than any other thing.
wow! When ever i get into a serious state of relaxation through breathing both my hands and my face tingle and lock up - had wondered about it for years and now i know - Tetany - Thank you
9:25 Been there! Excuses are lies. Do it anyway. I guess it comes down to this question "Do I want to become a better person or do I want to hold on to the old (broken) me?" Your choice. Good luck!
this has all the sense of the world, because a huide meditation introduce more oxigen and CO2 into your body, a high level of oxigen can make a reduce of most of all inflamation
Thanks for sharing this Matt! I've returned to meditating recently and I have thought of meditation as a form of breath work...or maybe the other way around...in any case, and you and Michelle have inspired me to try a more guided form of breath work. I just subscribed to Michelle's channel. 🤘🏽
the science behind the 'tetany' Matt experienced: repressed emotion has a relationship with the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) where it leads to muscle tension. There are degrees of severity to this where the higher the degree, the more unhealthy the repression is. Skeletal muscle is the lowest degree where it leads to skeletal muscle contractions, next is smooth muscle which is where there are smooth muscle contractions like consistent burping/farting, next is conversions which is temporary loss of certain functions/sensations like numbness in the body, loss of vision or hearing. There are other degrees of severity but these are the most common ones seen in the general population by psychiatrists/psychologists The association between repressing emotion and the SNS is currently under research. Learn more about this from searching 'tension myositis syndrome' or 'psychosomatic muscle tension'
10:34 I mean say u had a great party of u take out the ppl in it no matter how well u make everything exactly same it’s not same Same with doing anything as a group. Solitude has different game very different experience. What u might get in solo meditations might not get in group what u get in group might not happen alone but both are magical
8:15 is not quite right. From what I have read I think it is: hyperventilation is leading to lower CO2 (dioxide, not monoxide) in your blood which leads to temporary alkalosis. That is the tingling in your arms and legs and also correlates with a lowered ability of your body to absorb oxygen.
*Good video. I'm a skeptic at heart also but my interest in this simple stuff and the science behind it led me to an authentic tradition called Drukama. Give it a look. If you have that mindful approach towards seeking what's actually real instead of mumbo-jumbo you'll usually find what you're looking for. Be well all!*
@@DiversionG I moved away, to another country, literally. But some online contact. Too much drama and such. Live on my own. Crumbling America, absolutely hilarious California Exodus LULLLLLLZZZZ, and the lockdown now. Just in the Philippines. Thought of India, Jordan, etc. :p
The thing is, you guys most likely feel the same way about a lot of stuff, but one of you have to start sharing first. Then it gets natural as water flowing in a creek.
I noticed when you meditate with a group of people, as opposed to by yourself, it seems more intense and spiritual. I guess it would be the energy people give off. I have no idea. Just an observation.
Agreed. I think it could be as spiritual as energy being given off, or as basic as us just feeling safe in a herd, or as scientific is mirror neurons learning from others while meditating and backing up our own intentions. But anyway: it works and it feels great and you remind me I should do it again more often because it rocks :-)
Matt D'Avell: "I tried breathwork everyday for 30 days." Also Matt D'Avella: *makes a thumbnail of himself looking like corpse* Didn't really make me feel like trying this one out

Matt, I really liked this video. I think because it was so raw and I couldn't tell where it was going just as your personal experience was unfolding. Thank you for showing us such a candid view into your life!
I feel like you need to do this with Wim. Your sister can't teach you about "mens business" and instinctively I feel that is what you are needing atm. Some deep powerful work. Well done man.
Narc Free Formula men’s business?🤔
I use 8D music for this grounding effect, as focusing on my breath
makes me more uncomfortable, 8D /audiophile music makes anxiety and panic attacks disappear. The only caveat is that you need a decent pair of headphones for it to work properly.
I’m so happy you stepped into vulnerability. So much power and beauty in that 💪🏼🙏🏼
I practiced meditation for 2 years and breath work for the last 2 months.
My experience with breathwork was a rollercoaster. So happy but also so angry and depressed. So freaking emotional over little things and everything is 10 times more sensitive.
I’m going over if I should stick to it or not
Life-long skeptic here as well, but I've done this (and a lot of yoga) and one thing I've learned is that there's more healing/wellness inside of us than I thought.
From my own religious upbringing and life experience, I was trained to look for health OUTSIDE of myself. So, practices like this have been really quite beneficial for me.
Every time people came near, hug each other, and sit near my mind is flooded with the idea of social distancing even if the video was filmed before the covid outbreak.
At 4:12 - its that music, god, what beauty that it brings. The selected instrument and the song all good.
Well done Matt👏👏👏
Your getting closer...
For all those who stuff their feelings and perceptions in the name of science, we are physically made from dust...minerals, which have very specific, varied and unique qualities as they interact with eachother, and with sunlight, temperature, water, oxygen, co², etc...and IMO, "breath work" is a good example of the ways that our bodies are miraculously made to operate and self-heal, as well as how the physical connects to the spiritual. The caveat that I see being foolishly ignored most is forgetting that just as the existence of good and evil exist very clearly in our physical world, both good and evil also exist in the spiritual world...and evil always masquerades as something good...in the same way that food, sex and even water can result in both good and evil...life and death...depending on how it is pursued and/or utilized, as well as the underlying motives.
The vital aspect of our motives circles back to one of the promises that our Creator has made: that He will give us the desires of our heart! The scary part is how easily our temporary physical perception and understanding is deceived when ignorant of the spiritual realm and its various influences...such as the ignorant desires of a child to run away from good parents and a good home because hebis not getting his way all the time...which correlates to 1/3rd of the angels doing the same thing, which resulted in the creation of hell which is the exact manifestation of their once naive understanding of being independent of their Creator and the WAY OF LIFE He has made clear to all in ancient Scripture. If you are not a father, try to imagine putting your life on the line regularly for your children, in love, and protecting them from things that you don't even want them to know about, for their own peace of mind...only to have them assume that you too operate with their own juvenile level of self-orientation and entitlement, and rebel against the authority and headship that virtually every living species recognizes in their parents. Of course, everyone has done that at some point or another, and every parent has experienced some degree of rebellion from their children, which our Creator designed to teach us about His love and hopeful guidance unto goodness, Truth and Light. †
Your videos always move me. 🙏🏽 thank you for sharing. You are a blessing to me.
Before bed, I "breathwork" and im out in like minutes. My family are amazed at fast i fall asleep. 😋
This is such a great video - and I LOVE your sister! She is great. I'm totally inspired to do some Pranyama.
How is her TH-cam Channel called?
This is Matt’s best video I think
Next video " I tried to daily vlog for 30days"
Video after " Taking a break from TH-cam for 30 days"
I absolutely loved your video! Really like how you are opening up to the experience and to change your mind. I did my first breathwork session last week, it was life changing for me. Thought i knew a lot about spirituality, but this was something I've never experienced before. I've been a drug addict for years (4,5 years clean nowadays) and you're right, it absolutely is a drug like experience!
Thanks for sharing Matt!
Interesting that you pointed out the "lobster claws," I remember having one bad panic attack in high school and noticed I could not move my hands from that position. I couldn't help but giggle at the name you gave it!
I have an exam tomorrow. Needed some WooWoo!
More like WooHoo. Go get laid man ;)
Had to stop the video at 6:17 bec I felt the urge to cry as I’m having dinner right now in public.
God dammit, Matt don’t make me cry in public! 😢
Leo Francis Lallana I’m in the nail salon like “oh man, here it comes”
weak
I cried 🥺
They also do this in Jewish Churches, as well. It happened to me. I walked up to the front of the church. One person praying, who was standing in front of me. Another guy was standing behind me. He blew air on the back of my neck with his mouth. Next thing you know, I ended up falling to the ground. As I laid on the flour, I started to feel this sense of joy & happiness overcome me. I started uncontrollably chuckling for no apparent reason at all. All of a sudden.. I couldn't move! I tried as hard as I could to sit up, but I couldn't. It was like some powerful force that over came me & held me down. Weird? Definitely yes! But this experience gave me amazing positive + feelings inside, similarly to your own meditation experience!
God Blessed!

Michelle seems awesome!! 👏🏼
You can also research polyvagal theory (sympathetic/parasympathetic nervous system) and see how breathwork helps release trapped trauma in the body. My thought is that your hand 'posture' could have been you intuitively doing a mudra.
Absolutely love this. I just started Wim Hof Method a couple weeks ago and I can relate 100%. Get "Lobster Claws" by round 5 every day. Breathe work is hard. It takes focus. I do it in the morning after the coffee with an empty stomach.
Loved this video :-) Your sister is awesome! I used her recorded breathwork audios often!
While doing most kinds of “breathwork” can certainly yield benefits for most people, PLEASE TEACH PEOPLE TO BREATHE THROUGH THEIR NOSE!!
The nose and nasal cavities are evolutionarily designed for breathing. The mouth is just a backup system in the event that you cannot use your nose. Nasal breathing filters and humidifies air- the mouth does not. Nasal breathing harnesses nitric oxide which facilitates oxygen delivery to your blood cells. The mouth does not do this. Consistent and prolonged mouth breathing has many
negative effects. Get James Nestor’s book “Breath”. Good luck.
I believe you had a powerful experience in the desert because there were people and friends beside you.
I'm also a skeptic but emotional connection with people is as - or more - powerful than any other thing.
My breathing changed from just looking at Matt... :-)
(Excellent video production BTW.)
wow! When ever i get into a serious state of relaxation through breathing both my hands and my face tingle and lock up - had wondered about it for years and now i know - Tetany - Thank you
You should try, speak to a new person every day.. weather it’s a neighbour or on the bus ect. There’s a loneliness problem
Theory: We are all high on normal breathing but we are used to it.
High becomes normal if it is happening all the time, thus high is no more high.
Time to up the dose then😂
this makes sense
9:25 Been there!
Excuses are lies. Do it anyway.
I guess it comes down to this question "Do I want to become a better person or do I want to hold on to the old (broken) me?" Your choice. Good luck!
I am also going thru that phase but i keep going because i know it will be better for me
this has all the sense of the world, because a huide meditation introduce more oxigen and CO2 into your body, a high level of oxigen can make a reduce of most of all inflamation
Matt is channeling his Hamon energy
Thanks for sharing this Matt! I've returned to meditating recently and I have thought of meditation as a form of breath work...or maybe the other way around...in any case, and you and Michelle have inspired me to try a more guided form of breath work. I just subscribed to Michelle's channel. 🤘🏽
Thank you! I have just started breath work and found this!
I hope one day everyone do breathworking :)
Oh wow! The claw hand thing happens to me when I have really bad panic attacks and always wondered why it happened!
the science behind the 'tetany' Matt experienced:
repressed emotion has a relationship with the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) where it leads to muscle tension. There are degrees of severity to this where the higher the degree, the more unhealthy the repression is. Skeletal muscle is the lowest degree where it leads to skeletal muscle contractions, next is smooth muscle which is where there are smooth muscle contractions like consistent burping/farting, next is conversions which is temporary loss of certain functions/sensations like numbness in the body, loss of vision or hearing. There are other degrees of severity but these are the most common ones seen in the general population by psychiatrists/psychologists
The association between repressing emotion and the SNS is currently under research. Learn more about this from searching 'tension myositis syndrome' or 'psychosomatic muscle tension'
10:34 I mean say u had a great party of u take out the ppl in it no matter how well u make everything exactly same it’s not same
Same with doing anything as a group.
Solitude has different game very different experience. What u might get in solo meditations might not get in group what u get in group might not happen alone but both are magical
I love this video when you were explaining the feeling, I got moved
Dude what lens are you using? Your shots always look fantastic
I like Michelles metallic voice! 02:55
8:15 is not quite right. From what I have read I think it is: hyperventilation is leading to lower CO2 (dioxide, not monoxide) in your blood which leads to temporary alkalosis. That is the tingling in your arms and legs and also correlates with a lowered ability of your body to absorb oxygen.
Great work!
So essentially this is I tried getting high without drugs for 30 days.
It's Jeffrey, I'm going to do some work here. I had a touch of asthma after Covid, I think this will help as I'm getting back to 100%
I’ll cry with you.
Omg the girls accent. Lol 🥰 love her!
*Good video. I'm a skeptic at heart also but my interest in this simple stuff and the science behind it led me to an authentic tradition called Drukama. Give it a look. If you have that mindful approach towards seeking what's actually real instead of mumbo-jumbo you'll usually find what you're looking for. Be well all!*
Is it healthy to do all this breath work laying on the ground in the middle of a dusty desert?
Perhaps it's the camera angle however I saw a difference in the light in your face at 12:12. Like a clarity.
On one:
Matt's inner Italian: 7:59
Really enjoyed this & will try it. Thanks. 💜

"this was as far from my comfort zone as possible"
Lol your family never let's you be in your comfort zone even if they want to
lol!!! fucking hilarious!
@@DiversionG I moved away, to another country, literally. But some online contact. Too much drama and such. Live on my own. Crumbling America, absolutely hilarious California Exodus LULLLLLLZZZZ, and the lockdown now. Just in the Philippines. Thought of India, Jordan, etc. :p
not what he said
The question that I ask myself:
Am I ever gonna have such a constructive conversation with my sister?
Tobias R I feel this
Considering I don't have a sister, the answer for me is likely no.
Good luck. The holiday's are coming up...
Fr someone needs to make a how to video on this
The thing is, you guys most likely feel the same way about a lot of stuff, but one of you have to start sharing first. Then it gets natural as water flowing in a creek.
Matt D’Avella: “I tried breathwork for 30 days.”
Me: This is not what Keanu meant when he said you’re breathtaking.
I noticed when you meditate with a group of people, as opposed to by yourself, it seems more intense and spiritual. I guess it would be the energy people give off. I have no idea. Just an observation.
I agree with you 💫 the energy feels so much more intensified
Like church services each person has a guardian angel so there’s more spiritual energy with more people
@@AugustaWilliamsJr That sounds like something my mom would say. Have you guys been talking 😄 haha jk
Agreed. I think it could be as spiritual as energy being given off, or as basic as us just feeling safe in a herd, or as scientific is mirror neurons learning from others while meditating and backing up our own intentions. But anyway: it works and it feels great and you remind me I should do it again more often because it rocks :-)
I thought about this too
This guy : "my sister has been teaching breathwork for 5 years"
Also this guy : " so i googled 'what the hell is breathwork?'."
....welll...
exactly, like how did you miss that Matt?
Not the only guy. 😄
Like most brothers....
I don’t know how many times I’ve asked my sister what she dose and still couldn’t say to this day
I couldn't believe that XD XD XD
