Your breath is a gateway to the vastness of the universe - and the path to your highest fulfillment. This is the premise behind Your Breathing Body, a landmark 2 volume breath-work curriculum from esteemed meditation teacher and Tibetan Buddhist scholar Reggie Ray.

Volume 1 presents an audio course with the beginner in mind. Volume 2 contains audio for the advanced practitioner. Blending somatic practices and breathing techniques from cultures and traditions around the world, Reggie gives you a practice-focused program that will show you how to "fathom your breath to its full depths" for physical healing, emotional balance, and, ultimately, the direct experience of who you are and where you fit in the cosmos.

Must have for anyone interested in meditation. If You are frustrated with a lack of progrese or a lack of enjoyment while meditating this might be exactly what you need. It was exactly what I needed anyways.

I cant know who I am unless I first know what it feels like to be in my body fully and completely . I haven't done that since childhood. Reginald's voice is vibrationally very pleasant and he invites you into YOU... to feel connection to this dirt we are planted on.

Deep and profound Tibetan teachings for the modern age. Very supportive and healing. I use many of these practices daily with self and students. Excellent guided meditations for healing trauma and the suffering of being human.

Regi Ray is very dull to listen to, as others have mentioned, but his content is quite good, even if you have to listen through a lot of silence and monotone.

What made the experience of listening to Your Breathing Body, Volume 1 the most enjoyable?

There is a saying that when the student is ready, the teacher will appear. That was my experience with this book. This is the teacher I have been looking for after decades of seeking. His approach to spiritual practice grounds the awareness in the body in a much more powerful way than anything else I've tried, including other breath work and body-based techniques. In comparison to this, those other practices allowed (even encouraged) me to stay suspended in my mind, never really touching reality.

I got this book and started working the practices two weeks ago. So I'm just getting started, and haven't even done them every day. But already I feel--for the first time in my life--fully grounded in my body, and no longer reactive, anxious, and fearful. I'm sure there will be ups and downs along the way, but this path is the real thing, and Reggie is a true teacher. If you're a seeker, you owe it yourself to check this book out and see if this path resonates for you.

Great book for expanding meditation practice but not the guided breath practice I was looking for. Lots of valuable explanation and instruction about how to use these different practices. This would be very useful for someone looking to expand their repertoire of meditation/ visualization techniques.
GOOD: Listner is incouraged to lay down and create relaxation in the body.
NOT AS GOOD: Author speaks fast and grumbley which is very distracting when trying to follow along with him.
If you are truly intersted in "breath work," and the astounding power it holds in everyday life check out Let Every Breath by V. Vasilev.

If you want a 10 minute "breath like this" instruction, this is not for you. Its very thorough and packed full of supporting info.

The other reviews made me hesitant, but I am very pleased I chose it. The order of the tracks seems fine now. As a long time armchair Buddhist, I heard many gems here I had never before.

Very Detailed
