Miasma, Animalcules, & Germs | James Nestor

Journalist James Nestor gives a glimpse of the long history of humanity’s ever-evolving relationship with our invisible intruders and unseen assailants. From the Long Now Seminar, “The Future of Breathing” by James Nestor. Watch the full talk here:    • The Future of Breathing | James Nestor   Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, journalist James Nestor questions the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function, breathing. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary specialists to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe. His inquiry leads to the understanding that breathing is in many ways as important as what we eat, how much we exercise, or whatever genes we’ve inherited. "The Future of Breathing" was given on December 08, 02020 as part of Long Now's Seminar series. The series was started in 02003 to build a compelling body of ideas about long-term thinking from some of the world's leading thinkers. The Seminars take place in San Francisco and are curated and hosted by Stewart Brand.
