&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;We’ve just barely made it to the other side of a year that took our collective breaths away. So more than ever we felt that this was the time to go deep on life’s rhythmic dance partner. Today we huff and we puff through a whole stack of stories about breath. We talk to scientists, musicians, activists, and breath mint experts, and try to climb into the very center of this thing we all do, are all &lt;/span&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;doing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;span&gt; right now, and now, and now. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This episode was reported and produced by Annie McEwen, Matt Kielty, and Molly Webster.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
