Perhaps it can help open the airways of the lungs, enhance blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain, improve sleep, and bring calmness to the mind. It might even restore bodily functions disturbed by stress, build greater resilience, and help you to live longer. You might think this description sounds farfetched. But it isn’t.

Story
There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices.

In this culmination of his life’s work, Peter A. Levine draws on his broad experience as a clinician, a student of comparative brain research, a stress scientist and a keen observer of the naturalistic animal world to explain the nature and transformation of trauma in the body, brain and psyche. In an Unspoken Voice is based on the idea that trauma is neither a disease nor a disorder, but rather an injury caused by fright, helplessness and loss that can be healed by engaging our innate capacity to self-regulate high states of arousal and intense emotions.

Publisher's summary
Here is a drug-free, natural solution to common stress and mood problems—developed by two physician pioneers in Integrative Medicine. Millions of people suffer from stress and trauma-related issues including anxiety, depression, poor sleep, and relationship problems; and most would prefer not to take medication due to troublesome side effects, withdrawal symptoms, disappointing success rates, and rising costs.
In their own voices, Drs. Richard P. Brown and Patricia L. Gerbarg share the methods they have used for twenty years to build stress resilience and reduce the negative effects of stress and trauma on the mind, the emotions, and the capacity for close healthy relationships. These simple breathing and movement techniques are drawn from yoga, Buddhist meditation, the Chinese practice of qigong, Orthodox Christian monks, and other sources. These methods have been scientifically shown to be effective in alleviating specific stress, anxiety, insomnia, post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and many other conditions. The authors explain how breathing practices activate communication pathways between the mind and the body, positively impacting the brain and calming the stress response. They also provide guidance to help make the practices an ongoing part of daily life.
This audiobook, containing the entirety of the original edition along with some updates from the authors, provides breathing techniques to help relieve:
- anxiety, depression, and insomnia
- trauma-related emotions and behaviors
- post-traumatic stress disorder
- addiction-related behaviors
- mental and physical fatigue
It also offers breathing techniques to enhance concentration, productivity, peak performance, and personal relationships.

This breakthrough book presents a disarmingly simple idea: The way we pay attention in daily life can play a critical role in our health and well-being. According to Dr. Les Fehmi, a clinical psychologist and researcher, many of us have become stuck in “narrow-focus attention”: a tense, constricted, survival mode of attention that holds us in a state of chronic stress - and which lies at the root of common ailments including anxiety, depression, ADD, stress-related migraines, and more.

Story
For David Goggins, childhood was a nightmare--poverty, prejudice, and physical abuse colored his days and haunted his nights. But through self-discipline, mental toughness, and hard work, Goggins transformed himself from a depressed, overweight young man with no future into a US Armed Forces icon and one of the world's top endurance athletes. The only man in history to complete elite training as a Navy SEAL, Army Ranger, and Air Force tactical air controller, he went on to set records in numerous endurance events.

Words. We use them all the time, every day, mostly without giving them much thought at all. We take for granted that they’re here at our disposal whenever we need them. But if you’ve ever wished you could communicate more effectively, words are the place to start. It’s incumbent upon you to choose the best words to accomplish your goals, because how you choose to communicate influences—well, everything! The power of communication shapes our professional goals, our relationships, and our lives—so the words we choose to use carry a great deal of power.

Imagine a breathing technique that can increase oxygen uptake and delivery to the cells, improve blood circulation, and unblock the nose. Perhaps it can help open the airways of the lungs, enhance blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain, improve sleep, and bring calmness to the mind. It might even restore bodily functions disturbed by stress, build greater resilience, and help you to live longer. You might think this description sounds farfetched. But it isn’t.

Emotions, affect regulation, and interpersonal social behavior are psychological processes that define how people react to events, environmental difficulties, and other people. These processes build our sense of self, help us form connections, and influence whether we feel comfortable in different situations or with different individuals. Despite the fact that these processes may be witnessed scientifically and subjectively, they constitute a complex interplay between our psychological experience and physiological control.

One of the two most important skills of life
There are two skills I’ve studied that I feel have been life-changing, and even life-saving: one is The Alexander Technique and the other is Drs Brown and Gerbarg’s Breath Body Mind practices as introduced in this audio book. I’m in absolute awe of the transformations of people’s greatest challenges (physical/mental/etc) described here. Unimaginable trauma soothed so one can carry on with their life, and even thrive again! Performance anxiety managed and even dispelled. Physical enhancement to support all physical and mental functioning… all based in solid scientific research. The audio version of this is wonderful - the two doctors divide the reading equally and you get a real sense of their teamwork developing & teaching these methods - their calm and wise voices guiding you. I wish the audio recordings of the practices were included within this Audible program but they are easily accessed on the publisher’s website. I recommend this with tremendous enthusiasm - really one of the most important things you can do for yourself!!! Listen and practice daily - the whole world will thank you!
