Breath is Vital, Easy, and the Key to Living Happy and Healthy | A Conversation with YogaBody Founder & Breathwork Leader Lucas Rockwood

Lucas Rockwood wasn’t always an international yoga and breathwork and yoga entrepreneur, author and leader doing Ted Talks, and speaking at Yoga Alliance, Meta, and Noom. Like many of us, pain ended up being the great persuader. Like me, and like some of the listeners here, he overused substances as a way to cope. In a way, they were his solution—until they no longer worked, and instead, turned on him.

That’s when Lucas Rockwood found yoga. He describes himself as a little lost,  physically inflexible, but with a thirst for knowledge. He wanted to know everything about yoga and perhaps more importantly, about the one thing we all do every day that is integral to life—breath.

But none of his yoga instructors at the time could really say much about breathing—other than that we should all be doing it, especially in yoga.

Such began his lifelong pursuit of the mystery and magic and more importantly, the science of breath and the body. 

In this short-form interview, we cover a lot of ground: how simple breathing exercises can change our lives, decrease stress, improve sleep, and make us whole and healthy. 

Listen in as one of the world’s leaders in yoga and breath—and entrepreneurship—got his start, why breathwork is so important to us all, and why and how we all can do this and lead happier, healthier lives.
