The Power of the Breath

The Power of the Breath

Author: Yeshe Rabgye January 8, 2022 Duration: 11:58
During the pandemic, wouldn’t it be wonderful if we had something that will improve our sleep, digestion, immune and respiratory functions, while reducing our blood pressure, fear, and anxiety? The good news is there is something and it is called ‘breathworks.’ By learning to direct your attention to your breath, you can condition yourself to shift out of the fight or flight mode and into the rest and digest mode. So, from stress and anxiety and into calm and relaxation.

Yeshe Rabgye, a Buddhist monk from England, hosts the Buddhism Guide podcast, offering a grounded and accessible entry point into Buddhist thought. His approach is distinctly pragmatic and secular, stripping away cultural ornamentation to focus on the practical utility of these ancient principles for modern life. In each episode, Yeshe translates complicated philosophies into clear, relatable language, demystifying concepts around meditation, mindfulness, and mental well-being. What defines this podcast is its tone of invitation rather than instruction. Yeshe doesn't ask for blind acceptance; instead, he encourages a personal and curious examination of one's own mind and daily experiences. This stems from his work teaching across the globe, where he offers these insights freely to all. Listening feels like a direct conversation, unpretentious and focused on real-world application. Whether exploring the nuances of awareness or discussing the mechanics of suffering and contentment, the Buddhism Guide provides thoughtful companionship for anyone looking to cultivate a deeper sense of clarity and peace, regardless of their background or belief system.
