The best athletes in the world are the ones who can relax the fastest.

They know how to turn on “Relaxation Mode”

Most of them weren’t born with that knowledge, they had to be taught it.

You can learn it too.

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

This is true, but it’s important to know why.

You reach a new stage of enlightenment when someone you deeply admire thinks that youre clueless, maybe even stupid, and it doesn’t affect you at all.

It’s because you can continue to learn from them without having to waste any time trying to prove them otherwise.

At some point you might confuse “fun”
with avoiding your life.

Real fun gives you energy.
It makes you feel more alive afterward.

Escapism "fun" just helps you temporarily forget what you don’t want to face.

I used to think birthdays were overrated.
I was wrong.

They are extremely significant; filled with subtle and even obvious synchronicities.
A powerful day for gratitude, reflection, and deep lessons.

I turned 36 yesterday.

The fastest way to fall asleep is to
breathe as if you're ALREADY sleeping.

But you can't just slow the breath down.
You have to match the QUALITY of the sleeping breath.

START HERE:
- Slow down the breath.
- Feel the breath in your belly
- 5 seconds in, 5 seconds out.
- then, Make the breath smoother/more quiet.
- It should almost look like you're not breathing.

9/10 you will fall asleep with in 7 minutes.

In the darkest moment of my life the breath helped me to see another light of day.

UNTIL BEHAVIOR IMPROVES:

[⚡️Nick Sweeney ⚡️ @basedethos]

THE SYNCHRONIZED BREATHING EVENTS WILL CONTINUE 🌎

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

People hear the story of Jesus turning water into wine and instantly think:

“That violates physics.”

But modern chemistry is already showing us that tiny shifts at the atomic level can completely transform matter.

Diamond and graphite are both made of pure carbon.

Same atoms.

Completely different properties because of structure and electron behavior.

Sodium is explosive.
Chlorine is toxic.

Combine them correctly and you get table salt.

Life itself runs on electron transfer.

Your mitochondria literally produce energy by moving electrons.

Reality is far stranger, more electrical, and more malleable than most people realize.

Ancient spiritual traditions may have understood far more about the nature of reality than modern people assume.

@Tripp_untamed Eat more salt

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

There’s 40g of protein in breathwork before bed.

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@theralkia It’s all magnetic

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@supraanima Because you “need”

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

LSD v.s. Breathwork

LSD:

- ego death
- 7-12 hour trip
- melting walls
- no pause button
- possibly deepen psychosis
- possible psychological breakthroughs
- might text your ex that “nothing is real”

Breathwork:

- trippy visuals
- nervous system reset
- 1-3 hour guided trance
- huge emotional release
- can leave whenever you want
- still able to answer emails afterward

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

Take Zoloft.

Don’t worry.

You’ll be too much of a zombie to care your dicks not working anymore.

Or

Do 5 minutes of Alternate nostril breathing.

Works better.

Dick still works.

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@theralkia Yikes. That hit.

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@jackmoses777 I just asked Gandolf.

He said this:

“A wizard is never late, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.”

@theralkia They use their powers of delusion in a way that makes them miserable.

Delusion should make you happy.

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@theralkia @tripplsett_ The body knows

[André Wilson | BREATHWORK @BreathworkMaxx]

@theralkia @tripplsett_ Truth, can confirm.
