They told me the same story, of how they’d been plagued by some chronic respiratory illness that no drug or surgery or medical therapy could fix. Of how they all “cured” themselves with nothing more than breathing less.

The less one breathes, the more one absorbs the warming touch of respiratory efficiency—and the further a body can go.
