About Breath Science Lab
Meet Dan Jurzynek - Founder of
Breath Science Lab
Hi, I’m Dan - husband, father of two, and the heart behind BreathScienceLab.com.
Like a lot of people, I’ve wrestled with stress, drained energy, and the grind of trying to keep up - feeling like I was doing all the “right” habits, but still burning out. Life (work, family, endless to-dos) had me running on fumes.
Then one day, in a conversation with my twin brother, everything shifted. He started telling me about the Wim Hof Method - how it helped him calm his mind and go deeper than he ever had before. I was intrigued. That same day, I started researching breathwork… and it was like a new dimension opened up.
I’d never even considered breathwork before. Now, it's part of my daily life - or at least my weekday mornings. I wake up early, get a quick workout in, and do breathwork before the kids are up. Weekends are less predictable, but even five minutes helps me reset.
That one conversation sparked something bigger: a search for the hidden power inside our bodies. Breathwork deepened my passion for biohacking, and becoming a dad at 38 made me think seriously about longevity. I want to stay healthy and present - not just for myself, but for my family.
I’m not a doctor or a coach. I’m just a guy who’s lived the burnout, found something that works, and now I want to share it.
Why Breath Science Lab Exists
BreathScienceLab exists to share science-backed discoveries that help reset the nervous system, build resilience, and unlock your body’s potential - without hype or jargon.
To me, the breath is always there. Always available. Always honest. That’s why I’m obsessed with its power.
And the reason it’s called a Lab?
Because this isn’t just a blog - it’s a living experiment. I test everything I share. I’m not here to blow smoke. I’m here to figure out what actually works - and share it.
I was doing this for myself anyway. Now I write about it too.
BreathScienceLab is where real-life recovery meets real science.
Less guru. More garage lab.
Here’s how I explore it:
I dive into the research on HRV, vagus nerve stimulation, and breathing mechanics.
I test tools in real life - during school runs, swim lessons, and chaotic weeknights.
I create clear, no-fluff protocols anyone can use - even on a busy schedule.
This site is for skeptics, high-performers, and anyone who wants results that actually stick.
Let’s build this together.
Want to Try a Gentler Way In?
If you’re not ready for cold showers or intense breath holds, start with a slower, science-backed reset that calms your system in 3 minutes.
It’s not what I do every day - but for a lot of people, it’s the safest and most effective place to start.
