WHAT THE DOC DOESN’T WANT YOU TO KNOW….
The most powerful medicine you’ll ever experience doesn’t come in a pill, a shot, or a $25,000 stem cell treatment.
It’s already inside you.
And it's released through breath.
When you hold your breath the right way, you enter a state called intermittent hypoxia—and the effects are incredible:
Boosts red blood cell production
Activates stem cells for healing
Strengthens your vascular system & circulation
Increases HGH & EPO naturally
Supports heart, brain, and gut health
And here’s the best part:
You don’t need fancy equipment.
You don’t need hours in the gym.
All it takes is learning how to safely reach a 60–90 second breath hold.
With the right practice, your breath becomes fire in your body—igniting energy, focus, and resilience—while also guiding you into the deepest calm you’ve ever known.
Every Sunday at 6:15 PM, I’m leading a Kumbhaka Breathwork Class at Preservation Yoga.
We’ll start with Tummo breathing to awaken the nervous system.
Then, we’ll move into freediving-style breath tables (Kumbhaka), where the real magic happens.
This isn’t just breathwork.
It’s training for your nervous system.
You’ll feel the rush of fight-or-flight—then learn how to flip the switch into rest, recovery, and healing.
Experience how CO2 tolerance builds your capacity to handle stress.
Unlock the ability to stay calm under pressure.
Tap into deep states of repair, regeneration, and peace.
This is cardio without the cardio.
This is longevity training.
This is how you heal.
If you’re ready to live longer, recover faster, and finally feel what it’s like to be in control of your body and mind—this is for you.

BREAK THE CYCLE
In his groundbreaking research at Harvard, evolutionary biologist Daniel E. Lieberman coined a sobering term: dysevolution.
Lieberman noticed something troubling — while our genes were built for a world of movement, challenge, and natural living, modern "comfort" culture has moved faster than our biology can keep up.
The result?
Mismatches that lead to chronic issues: obesity, diabetes, back pain, sleep apnea, and even weak bones and joints.
And because we often treat only the symptoms — a pill for the pain, glasses for poor vision, medications for stress — instead of the root cause, these mismatches get passed down and worsen generation after generation.
That cycle of decline is what Lieberman calls dysevolution.
But here’s the good news: we can break the cycle.
Struggle Is Not the Enemy — It’s the Medicine
Every muscle, bone, and neural pathway in your body is designed to adapt to stress.
Facing the resistance is where we get the growth. Through the right kind of struggle — heat, breath, movement, even the shock of cold — the body and mind break down just enough to rebuild stronger.
Avoid struggle, and we invite degeneration.
Step willingly into it, and we awaken our deepest healing responses.
This is exactly where Bikram Yoga comes in.
How Bikram Yoga Helps Us Avoid Dysevolution
1. Undoing the Sitting Epidemic (Postural Dysevolution) Most Americans sit 10+ hours a day. Bikram’s 26 postures lengthen the spine, open the hips, and retrain posture — reversing the collapse caused by chairs, cars, and screens.
2. Restoring Breath (Respiratory Dysevolution) Chronic mouth-breathing and shrinking jaws have led to widespread breathing dysfunction. Bikram trains nasal breathing and diaphragm strength, restoring our most essential function.
3. Resetting Metabolism (Lifestyle Dysevolution) Sedentary living and processed foods have triggered a metabolic crisis. The 90-minute heat session elevates the heart rate, boosts circulation, and supports detoxification at a root level.
4. Calming the Nervous System (Stress Dysevolution) We live in constant fight-or-flight. Bikram teaches stillness between effort, resetting vagal tone and balancing stress hormones.
5. Strengthening Joints & Bones (Movement Dysevolution) Through compression, extension, and weight-bearing postures, Bikram stimulates bone density and keeps joints supple, preventing early degeneration.
6. Building Mental Resilience (Psychological Dysevolution) The intensity of the hot room is controlled discomfort. Learning to breathe through it creates resilience that carries into daily life.
7. Reclaiming Ritual & Community (Cultural Dysevolution) In a culture of isolation, Bikram offers a shared sequence, discipline, and community — the very structure humans thrive on.
The Invitation
We can’t stop modern life from creating new mismatches. But we can choose practices that help us evolve stronger instead of weaker.
Bikram Yoga is more than a workout — it’s an antidote to dysevolution.
It realigns the body, restores the breath, strengthens the mind, and reconnects us with community.
