Do As One was created by three visionary friends who were compelled to make the world a happier and healthier place on a grand scale. With that vision at heart they sought to learn as much as they could about the most basic and life sustaining function of a human’s life, breathing.
They met with gurus, breath practitioners, respiratory therapists, doctors, yoga instructors, healers, shamans, religious leaders, monks and alternative medicine experts to get at the core of what the breath means to the human body, mind and spirit. They even interviewed thousands of diverse people to gauge what the general population knows about breathing in order to help determine what needed to be taught and how best to impart the knowledge.
After synthesizing all the information the Do As One Conscious Flow Method was created and a grand goal was set that will change the way you think about breathing.
The Goal: 1 Billion people breathing together synchronously in one moment by 11/11/2012.
The Method: Create Do As One, a non-profit organization committed to teaching people around the world how to breathe optimally with the Conscious Flow Method and breathe together through various breathing tools primarily including DoAsOne.com.
Three years of enlivening work after the initial vision, DoAsOne.com was born on 7/7/2007. DoAsOne.com is the online embodiment of the mission, vision and methods of Do As One. People come to DoAsOne.com and use the many carefully designed breathing tools to improve their breathing practice and connect with others around the planet through their breath. Breathing tools include calm breathing, activation breathing, balanced breathing, color therapy breathing, laughter and intention breathing to name a few.
The Universal Breathing Room (UBR) is the core tool on DoAsOne.com. It is a “live” tool that allows all users to literally link up their breathing patterns (simultaneous inhales and exhales) at 5 breaths per minute with that of all other users in the UBR at that time. This connection allows everyone to link up on what is the most common denominator of all living beings, breathing, regardless of class, intellectual capacity, race, language spoken, geographic location, financial status or otherwise. Breathing is the only thing nearly everyone on the planet can do together at the same time.
On 8/8/2008 Do As One launched version 2.0 of their breathing tools including the Universal Laughter Room. On 9/9/2009 version 3.0 of DoAsOne.com was made available to the world with the addition of the Om Room, Custom Breath Pacer and vast improvements in user interface, site performance and scalability. Major releases of DoAsOne.com are scheduled for 10/10/2010, 11/11/2011 and 12/12/2012.
Do As One is rapidly enrolling Breath Ambassadors to help spread the word about wellness and oneness through healthy conscious breathing. As a non-profit Do As One is actively seeking additional donors and endowments to solidify the perpetual existence of one of humanity’s greatest gifts.
