Brendon Hansford, founder of IMD Breathwork, joins Maria Botros on this week's Tell Me Why podcast to discuss the importance of breath-work and its often-overlooked healing benefits.

  • The way we breathe is determined by how stressed we are, how much anxiety we have and how happy we are, says Brendon
  • Brendon: Where I come in is the active breathing part, to consciously focus on our breath
  • Slowing down or speeding up our breath depends on what we want to achieve with the breathing exercise, says Brendon
  • Brendon: A good test is to mindfully focus and count how many breaths you take in a minute
