Breathe Consciously, Live Intensely

In her first book "BREATHE CONSCIOUSLY - LIVE INTENSELY" VAGUS FLOW® and the Art of Breathing, Christina Koller shares the insights and techniques she has developed over the years. Her principle "The quality of your breath determines the quality of your life" reflects her conviction that the breath plays a central role in our well-being. With VAGUS FLOW®, she shows how the breath helps us to stay anchored in our dynamic everyday lives and to de-stress through conscious breathing without having to step out of our active lives. Dr Ingfried Hobert, MD, aptly describes the impact and depth of Christina's work: "I am touched by the mindful honesty and authenticity with which Christina Koller takes us on a journey to ourselves through the "art of breathing". In a gentle way, she reveals the secrets of the refreshing and enchanting power of conscious and observant breathing and how we can use it together with special exercises to find deep self-awareness and calm, especially in stressful times. With the VAGUS FLOW® exercises she has developed, she shows us how we can strengthen our emotional resilience and thus our mental and physical health, reduce stress and find self-knowledge and self-love through a mindful connection of heart and mind." Christina's aim is to promote the health and well-being of her readers through practical approaches and interventions that are suitable for everyday use. VAGUS FLOW® is a method that can be used anywhere. It has a profound effect: it influences the autonomic nervous system directly via the breath, promotes resilience, supports positive thought patterns and helps to overcome negative thoughts more quickly. Through targeted training in breathing and body awareness, readers learn to sharpen their focus and recognise their inner strength and uniqueness. Christina emphasises that the greatest challenge lies in the regularity of the practice and the integration of conscious breathing into everyday life. Christina Koller's work is an invitation to discover the art of breathing and to experience its power. With "BREATHE CONSCIOUSLY - LIVE INTENSIVELY", she offers a practical guide to finding inner orientation, increased well-being and serenity through the breath.

Christina Koller is a passionate breath therapist who combines her love of horses and nature with a deep dedication to increasing vitality and life balance through conscious breathing. She discovered the gentle power of breath 15 years ago and decided to dedicate her life to exploring and teaching this precious skill. Her journey led her to a comprehensive four-year training as a breath therapist at the Institute for Body-Centred Psychotherapy (IKP). She combines her in-depth training with a degree in social work and 30 years of experience in the fields of spirituality and yoga. Her innovative VAGUS FLOW® method emerged from this unique blend. By founding her company Sanajer SA, whose name means "healthy air" in Romansh, she created a platform to make this method accessible to a wider audience. Christina Koller is always boldly breaking new ground into the unknown and has impressively demonstrated how she has mastered even the most extreme life situations. Her connection with her breath and her body has helped her to stay connected with herself and overcome strokes of fate in a resilient way. "In times of disorientation, the breath, like a silver thread, provides inner orientation, restores body awareness and awakens trust in oneself." For her, being alive means being connected with all emotions, standing with both feet in everyday life and encountering life in all its facets with an open heart. This book is intended to encourage you to immerse yourself in the many colours of life, explore unknown paths and write your own breathing story.
