Ex-professional rugby player, David Jackson, documents his career-ending head injury whilst playing for Nottingham RFC, the aftermath and feelings of uncertainty and how he overcame this by finding a new purpose in life.

• how common dysfunctional breathing is in the population
• how we can learn to breathe more efficiently to improve our health and performance
