On Disc One, Drs. Roizen and Oz tell you how to focus on breathing to make it work for you. You'll learn how your breathing apparatus works, and how the breath of life moves through your body and affects your well-being. You'll explore the science of stress and discover how to identify stressors and reduce their effects. You'll also learn how to improve the significant part of your life you spend sleeping, and why it's so important to your overall health picture.

Disc Two is devoted to tools and practices that will enhance your breathing, help you relax, and de-stress your life. In this remarkable series of exercises and meditations, the Docs and their frequent collaborator and co-host Lisa Oz introduce you to powerful techniques you'll use again and again, including:

• Deep breathing
• Breath awareness
• Guided meditation
• Stretching and relaxation

We'll also help you open the YOU Toolbox for insights into medical tests, vitamins and supplements and other information vital to the rich, vibrant life of breathing easy.

Everyone wants to live longer and feel younger. The information and exercises in YOU: BREATHING EASY will teach listeners both to develop healthier, easier breathing techniques and to implement meditation and relaxation practices that will help them breathe easier in all aspects of their lives.

Unavailable in any other format, this original audio companion to You: Staying Young expands on that #1 bestseller's focus on breathing as a vital element of health and as a powerful tool in fighting a variety of vitality-sapping "major agers" and in maintaining optimal physical and emotional health.

Just as the 30-minute walk presented in You: On a Walk was a central component of the diet outlined in You: On a Diet, the breathing, relaxation and meditation techniques at the heart of YOU: BREATHING EASY are included in You: Staying Young's prescriptive 14-Day Extended Warranty Plan and collection of lifesaving "You Tools."

Disc One provides listeners with information on healthy breathing and its place on their daily "You-do" lists, as well as its role in achieving such diverse self-health goals as stress reduction, cancer prevention, improved circulation, cleansing/detoxing and much more.

Disc Two features the You Docs at their inspirational best as they motivate listeners to change the behaviors and can keep them living longer and feeling young, and presents a series of exercises — some of which are outlined in You: Staying Young, and some of which have been developed exclusively for this program — that use music, pacing and gentle vocal guidance on such popular topics as:

* deep breathing

* meditation

* stress reduction

* preventing insomnia

* total-body relaxation

* guided visualization

and much more!

A unique and winning combination of expert information, inspiring motivation, and exercises the could exist only on audio that listeners will play again and again, YOU: BREATHING EASY is a uniquely practical and effective addition to the blockbuster YOU phenomenon!
