Let's get to the heart of coherent breathing! The technique is also known as “Resonant Breathing”, “6:6 Breathing”, and “Even Stephen” breath… after its original creator Stephen Elliott.
In this rare interview, Stephen shares his long voyage of discovery - you will learn how he uncovered the Coherent Breathing technique almost by accident when researching the visible effects of advanced meditation practices on brainwaves… and how discovering the practice of Coherent Breathing was only the beginning of his research journey.)
For specific advice on how to master the technique watch my first interview with Stephen here…
Stephen is a very rare individual; with a Western background in advanced electronics research and engineering, underpinned by a deep fascination with Eastern esoteric Chinese medicine, martial arts and Daoist ideas. His atypical worldview and sophisticated skillset meant that, as biofeedback tools became more advanced towards the end of the last century, he was uniquely placed to uncover the elements of the coherent breath.
Stephen is the president of Coherence LLC and the life scientist and biofeedback researcher behind much of the fundamental research into coherence.
Stephen not only created the original Coherent Breathing Method, he has also used his mastery in electronics research to single-handedly invent a number of unique biofeedback machines designed to measure the impact of the technique on the body… which in turn have led him to uncover hitherto unknown facts about the respiratory system.
Hear more about these discoveries in my second video with Stephen here… • The Coherent Breathing...
Coherent Breathing has begun to pop up in yoga classes and lifestyle magazines, but don’t let the simplicity and accessibility of the method fool you… it is so much more than just a relaxation technique. It is a way of “hacking” your circulatory system, improving your cardiac health, gaining control over your physiology & nervous system, and, when done properly, even altering your brain waves and improving your cognition.
You may have heard about it in James Nestor’s bestselling book “Breath”. Nestor talks briefly about how the method is used by Drs Gerbarg and Brown for radical health benefits, both mental and physical…

… but Nestor doesn’t mention the inventor and researcher who uncovered the technique that inspired them!
Because Elliott’s work is outside of mainstream scientific journals it is rarely referenced, however his book “The New Science of Breath” is the catalyst that has inspired many researchers to study the method. And they are only just beginning to uncover its potential!

Stephen also wishes to mention his good friend, colleague,and coauthor of "Wuji Qi Gong", Dr. Meng-Sheng.
Stephen credits Dr Meng-Sheng with saving his life over two decades ago around 1995.
Stephen says, without her mastery of Chinese medicine, he may not have been around
to develop Coherent Breathing.

Stephen would also like to acknowledge J&J Engineering for their role in aiding
him in the realization of Valsalva Wave Pro.
