Heyo! My name is Lukas and I've been breathing since the day I was born. Been breathing every day since, and I'm even doing it in my sleep... I couldn't live without it, I think I might be addicted 😂
Jokes aside, breathing consciously has transformed my life, several times over.
From an early age, I was programmed with the ABC's and 123's and other more practical information like the date of the Treaty of Versailles, but I wasn't exposed to the foundations of being human - how to navigate life through my fleshly, breathing body.
I got a prestigious degree in understanding the nuances of computer systems, but was never taught how to direct my biological operating system - the one system that rules them all.
After building and launching a tech startup, I decided I needed to reconnect with myself. I left everything and set out to live fully. I often didn't know where my next step would land, but I just kept trusting, kept persisting - one breath at a time.
This lead me to running an ocean-front hotel on the coast of Ecuador. Very near the middle of the world, I had come to the center of myself, and there I found a loving heart, a serving mind, and a flow of breath that connected me to something bigger than myself.
I've personally been working intensely with the breath for several years, and have been teaching entrepreneurs how to use the breath as a thermometer (as awareness - to detect their current state) and as a thermostat (as intention - to direct their state for the task at hand). I've already learned so much, but the breath never runs out - it just keeps giving. Here are some of the key lessons:
- Receiving comes from Giving; Giving comes from Receiving
- The breath unites internally (all of our body's core systems) and externally (with other people, organisms, and the environments around us)
- Being apart and isolated is an illusion - you are a part of something greater than you are able to comprehend
- Breath is life - you can engage it automatically and unconsciously, or willingly and consciously (I prefer the latter)
When I came across the Coherence App, I recognized that it has the potential to change the world - in a very real conscious direction. I have long been dreaming of a way to bring humanity together, seeing each other as Team 21st Century with some common challenges facing us all.
The Coherence app has laid out a clear path to make that a reality - Bringing together Billions to Breathe together.
I look forward to sharing some breaths, to bringing coherence within ourselves, and raising collective consciousness.
Remember:
You are not alone.
This is not just for you
