Breathwork Techniques to RELEASE DMT! (3 Rounds)
About this video
Kegley leads a guided breathwork session of three rounds, presenting health effects as teachings he attributes to others rather than established fact in his own telling. He credits much of the information to Josh Trent, a breathwork coach in his programme, and cites Gay Hendricks, PhD, for the claim that the body is designed to discharge 70 percent of its toxins through breathing. He teaches that deep breathing stimulates the vagus nerve, which connects to the diaphragm and the parasympathetic nervous system, sending a relax signal to the body. He also discusses DMT, which he expands as dimethyltryptamine and describes as the most psychedelic compound known to man, claiming it is released when you are born and when you die — all presented as his teaching on the topic. Kegley says he is not a yogi, guru or breathwork master, advises viewers to check with a healthcare professional if they have pre-existing conditions, and suggests people prone to seizures might sit it out, and first-timers should be gentle. Each round follows the same pattern: about 20 to 30 deep belly inhales with passive exhales, then box breathing — inhale, hold, exhale and hold for five seconds each — then a full exhale retention that lengthens across rounds, about 30 seconds in round one, 45 seconds in round two, and 60 seconds in round three, followed by an inhale retention.
Key takeaways
- Kegley attributes the detox claim to Gay Hendricks — that 70 percent of toxins are discharged through breathing — presenting it as a reason proper breathing matters.
- He teaches that deep breathing engages the vagus nerve and parasympathetic nervous system to move the body from a high-alert anxious state to a calm, centred one.
- He presents DMT, dimethyltryptamine, as a compound he claims is released at birth and death, framing breathwork as a way to feel a natural high on your own supply.
- The session structure is consistent across three rounds: 20 to 30 deep belly breaths, box breathing in five-second phases, then an exhale hold rising from about 30 to 45 to 60 seconds.
- Kegley includes disclaimers that he is not a breathwork master, that beginners should ease in gently, and that people with health conditions or seizure risk should check with a professional or sit out.
