The Surprising Effects of Breathing on the Brain

We all breathe—about 20,000 times a day—but did you know that each breath might actually shape the way you think? In this talk, we’ll explore surprising discoveries from neuroscience showing how the simple act of inhaling and exhaling can influence brain rhythms and even enhance memory and problem solving. Starting with research in mice and moving to recent human studies, you’ll learn how your brain’s timing syncs with your breath—and how this hidden rhythm could change the way we think about thinking, breathing and the connection between our body and the mind.
