Peter Deadman has worked in the field of health promotion for nearly fifty years, as co-founder of the much loved Infinity Foods and The Brighton Natural Health Centre, Author and founder of The Journal of Chinese Medicine. Peter will be joining us to talk about ‘The Transformative Power of Slow Deep Breathing‘ and what the Chinese tradition calls ‘internal exercise’, practiced in yoga, tai chi, qigong, Pilates and more.
Peter will discuss the traditional Chinese self-cultivation perspective on breathing and then look at some of the discoveries that illuminate its powerful effects on our health, especially its effect on the sympathetic/parasympathetic balance. Participants will also get the opportunity to practise slow deep breathing.
