Harvey and Austin begin a new adventure in the name of Coffee Buzz Friday.  The duo tackle different areas of performance and life from the perspective of The MindStrong Project. 

This week, they discuss some foundational concepts within breath work that set the table for future discussions.  Core ideas discussed include distinctions between breath work and meditation, the value of our sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, and the importance of nasal breathing.
