In this revealing video, pharmacist-turned-breathwork-pioneer Niraj Naik shares how he healed himself from a debilitating autoimmune condition using one ancient – but scientifically validated – tool: breathwork. After being told his illness was “incurable,” Niraj refused a life of medication and suffering. Instead, he dove deep into ancient pranayama, rhythmic breathing, and modern biology – and discovered how to activate his body's own healing systems. This powerful conversation is for anyone curious about healing, transformation, and the true potential of the human body.
What You'll Learn in the Video:
The Body Can Heal Itself
Niraj shares how he reversed ulcerative colitis using breathwork and lifestyle changes.
This personal transformation reveals a potent truth: the body is designed to self-heal – when you know how to support it.
Breath as Medicine
Breathwork is a full-spectrum healing tool. It can:
- Increase energy
- Reduce inflammation
Science Meets Ancient Wisdom
Discover how ancient breathing techniques are backed by modern research:
- CO₂ tolerance
- Nitric oxide production
- Intermittent hypoxia
- Vagus nerve stimulation
Breath regulates everything from your nervous system to inflammation to stem cell activity.
Oxygen Efficiency + CO₂ Tolerance
- Breath control reduces oxidative stress (a major aging factor)
- Learning to breathe slower and more efficiently is linked to a longer, healthier life
Nitric Oxide: The “Magic Molecule”
- Produced through nasal breathing and breath holds
- Boosts blood flow, kills pathogens, stimulates stem cells
- Crucial for healing and regeneration
Yoga Beyond Fitness
Yoga isn't just about flexibility – it's a complete system for healing the body, mind, and spirit.
Niraj explores how breath brings this system to life.
Rhythmic Breathing for Emotional Healing
- Restores the body's natural rhythm and coherence
- Helps access and release deep emotional imprints, especially childhood trauma
Ayurvedic Typing & Personalized Healing
- Learn how your unique constitution (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) affects your breath, mind, and lifestyle – and how to work with it for deeper healing.
Reprogramming the Mind
- Breathwork + music + guided meditation = altered brainwave states
- This quiets the Default Mode Network (ego chatter) and opens the door to soul-guided clarity
Breath & Spiritual Expansion
- Chakras correlate with the endocrine system
- Breath and vocal toning activate these energy centers
- Ancient myths point to hidden wisdom about how to awaken our full human potential
