    Tomorrow you'll learn the BOLT, a comfortable breath hold you can take each morning to track your breathing. All you need is a timer. Your phone will do.

  • A quick note

    This course is general education, not medical advice. The exercises should always feel comfortable. If you have a medical condition or are pregnant, check with your doctor before starting breathing exercises.
