- Practical 40 minute free breathing session with Patrick McKeown to improve respiratory health.
Measure breathlessness and respiratory function using BOLT
Practice breathing recovery to calm help calm breathing
Slow, light deep breathing to improve gas exchange
Slow breathing to improve alveolar ventilation for increased oxygen uptake in the blood
Breath holds until strong air hunger to influence immune response
The above exercises are beneficial to help with recovery post covid.
Nitric oxide, which is produced in large quantities in the paranasal sinuses and inhaled as a matter of course during nostril breathing, is also currently undergoing clinical trials in China, both as a treatment for Covid-19 patients and a preventative measure for healthcare workers.

I know this is older but I just found this. Lifetime asthmatic here (45 years old, first attack at just weeks old) and I learned more watching this video than I have from any doctor I have seen. THANK YOU!!!!
I've also had lifelong breathing issues and buying his book The Oxygen advantage is one of the best things I ever did

awesome. try magnesium supplements too. usually too much calcium (found in cheese or milk products is not good). lastly, more water 8 cups on average daily.
Thanks be to God I found you and this LIFE CHANGING video! I am
Recovering from Covid 19 and had
Pneumonia at the end of it. I have sat during the course of this video outdoors and did the breathing exercises along with you Doctor. Already I feel better! I am a believer and will follow this breathing exercises. Thank you!!!!!!
I started this a few days ago. I have asthma and just recovered from covid. My Breathlessness was scary and had no energy for anything. My medication would not work. After only a couple of days I am so so much better thanks to these breathing exercises. Anyone considering this, do it. You will not regret it.
So good to hear this. I have asthma and recovering from covid and so very short of breathe. Did you continue to get better with the breathlessness after a couple of days of these exercises? It is so scary
@@TheLisajoyce yes I did. I physically wrote out a list of a few breathing exercises and tried to do them throughout the day (3 times was probably the most I managed). Be patient and stick with it. When your well enough you can begin to challenge yourself more with short walks or small swim, whatever works for you. Definitely stay with your medication too. I think the combination of medicine and exercises complimented each other. Best of luck with it and just take it day by day. There is light at the end of the tunnel
Excellent to hear this. Traditionally I am a mouth breather, I have since had a septoplasty to correct a deviated septum. My nose airflow is greatly improved. However I still continue to mouth breath at night, it's almost the habit is so deeply ingrained. I will order the mouth tapes. What is your experience?
Thanks
As a Nurse and someone with Asthma, I immediately feel better breathing as you explained and I’m noticing patients wearing masks for prolonged times have a habit of shallow mouth breathing.. some are developing Caridomyopathy .. it’s all about the breath
If you cannot breath well you will be too afraid to live well … take off the masks 😷 friends , breathe and share only positive thoughts and ACTIONS❤🙏THE TIME IS NOW .. it will never be tomorrow
Thank you so much for sharing it helps me with my asthma..
I cured myself of asthma 5 years ago. Buteyko works. I mostly just used (and continue to use) a simple exercise of 10 5-second breath holds, with 10-15 seconds of normal breathing. So simple. All medications stopped 5 years ago. I have 6 cats and had immunotherapy (allergy shots) for 5 years without establishing immunity. Buteyko provided me with not just an improvement, but a complete cure. I threw out my epipen (long expired) a few months ago! I’m adding the following: breath holds are always at the end of a normal exhalation. Always nose breathe! If you need to do the various nose unblocking methods that Patrick and others indicate.
Is it really as simple as you stated?
Afcourse it all works !!!
I am so happy for you and also proud of you! Stay well and live long healthy and happy.
@Kathleen Adams Do you have other channels that you recommend also? Did you learn it from this channel? It seems great to me, almost too good to be true
Do you do 10 5 second breath holds once a day?
Praise the Lord Jesus,it works, I was out of breath due to anxiety and cold weather,it really helped,thank you so much.
People need to do breathing exercises every day especially during this coronavirus epidemic. It has helped me sleep better and as an asthmatic it’s helped for several years.
That makes me so happy to hear!
My grandmother has asthma and bad lungs, (she still runs around her big house doing all kinds of activities haha, she can't sit down for too long 😅) and your comment makes me feel very motivated to keep giving her exercises AND doing them myself as well ☺
You're a very beautiful lady, thank you so much for writing this comment!
All my love!
Valorie mad That’s awesome that your Grandma is so active. Doing the breathing exercises also helps with concentration and awareness and focus on that you’re actually breathing. If that makes sense. I should do them more often but I usually try to remember to do the breathing exercises when I get in bed because I have adhd especially at bed time where I can not get my brain to focus on one thing at a time. So the breathing exercises helps with that as well as strengthening the lungs.
Virgen Weed : And she died from the COPD? Breathing exercises isn’t medicine. It helps strengthen your lungs. Everyone should be doing this even if they don’t have any medical issues.
I will try it out, hope it helps
Definitely true! I’m thrilled that I came across McKeown’s work in January as I needed to get rid of mouth breathing day and night...and I did! 👍🏼👍🏼
Thank You! I am in the hospital with covid pneumonia, after doing your exercises for a brief period I feel and look better.
Claes sorensson hai good to hear that..how are you getting on now, pray and faith for your total recovery..stay safe
@@catherinejamesl.5888
Hi, thanks for caring.
I am doing pretty good, feel close to fully recovered. I have had some weird sensations along the way.
@@claessorensson225 How are you feeling now? My friend had pneumonia less than 8 months ago - tested negative many times for covid19. She didn't go to Hospital for that but recovered at home. Right after the beginning of the year she got a terrible cold, she felt like she wanted to die she was so sick, turns put she had covid19 this time and pneumonia again. She was at the hospital for about three weeks and now she's in rehab and she still using oxygen. I hope she'll be okay her health is not the best.
Claes, I hope you have fully recovered from Covid. It is a nasty and pernicious disease.
Just read ur reply that you have recovered. Wonderful! 👍
I may Have COVID, it’s been a good few days now. Better in the daytime, worse at night. Nights are really hard. Feels awful. These breathing exorcises actually help restore breathing patterns and have helped me stay calm. I get much better oxygen feelings with this than trying to force air into my lungs. It actually has I,proved the tightness in my chest as well and I feel like this has been crucial to me getting better. Thank you so much. This is truly awful but luckily the respiratory stuff is the only symptom I have left. Everything else has improved. Good to know that there are people who really care in these hard times out there. Praise the Lord for all he has done to teach us and help is to Live through this. Thank you for your help. Stay well. God bless you!
Amen
I agree. The nights are worse for some reason. Might be a bit anxiety as well.
Thanks
Hi Chance. Glad that this video is helping you. Many thanks
God bless you
This advice completely changed my wife’s sleep. She sleeps silently and much deeper. We practice it all day now even while cycling.
Thank you so much!
I realize that you posted this 2 weeks ago. Just as I was getting sick. You have helped me overcome this sickness with this exercises also teaching me important lessons about breathing. Thank you very much for this video. It made a difference in my critical situation. God bless you.
Hi Jamsin. Glad it helped. Take care
I have tried this today. I am 5 weeks into recovery from COVID-19 and although I experienced some breathlessness since the start it was just a week ago that I began to experience more I tense shortness of breath at night. I found other breathing exercises were putting too much pressure on my lungs and in turn I would experience palpitations which increased anxiety that comes with breathlessness. This was much more gentle and less forceful. I will try this again before I go to sleep, I'm hopeful this will help with my recovery.
I agree others create too much pressure
Claire Scarborough I’m currently on week 4 and still have the same symptoms as you, I’m going to try this exercise as often as I can
You healed up yet hun? Im praying that The Most High heal you completley
Are you fine now
Have you recovered now ? How is your health .
I had covid, when the fever hit I did wim hof breathing, I could only do rounds of 10 with15 sec holds, the fever was gone in 5 minutes, only had to do this a couple of times.
I also found that this breathing alleviated the cough, I think it opened the lung tubes that were contracting, felt like crap but I was back to work feeling fine by the end of my 10 day isolation.
All in all it didn't feel as bad as the flus I usually get every year which have been quite severe all my life, I must be sensitive to flu, I'm strong and healthy don't drink or smoke and eat healthy, I'm 55 now.
Thats great ! Dud you get vaccanated ? I take 5000 units vit d zinc 30 mg. Coq10 100 mg. I make one green smoothie spinash and blueberries every morning. Thats my breakfast till noon. A lot of spinash and half cup of blueberries and enough water to make it a drink. Good luck.
I forgot to add i do wim hoff every night before bed. Works !

Thank you
@@waynecolburn8849 what is wim hoff??
Thank you Patrick for all your instructions on nose breathing, it’s made a world of difference in my life.
If there is one video YT algos should promote, this would be the one.
Thanks a lot man, I have learnt more from you than I ever did from all my doctors put together.
Thanks for the comment @raghavmehta4753.
Hope you're healthy and well.
I would like to thank this man for stating that these breathing exercises are free in the title. I hate the UA-cam videos that charge me
I never ever heard of any UA-cam charging anyone!!
Drink herbal boil water with black paper , ginger, tulsi leaf 2 or 3 if u have, and massage your lungs with warm mustered oil. Take honey,
I was having trouble with my breathing about three years ago, I was ready to go to the doctor, I did some research on line and came across nasal breathing so I gave it a try, I decided to do it all the time, within 24 hours something happened that made me take it seriously, my nose was completely clear for just about the first time in my life, I decided to do it 24 /7, it took a while for my lungs to improve but the bonuses were unbelievable, no shoulder or neck pain, very much improved posture just about perfect, my skin improved my old age marks have almost gone, I sleep very well, I go to sleep and when I wake up I’m in the same position, I don’t use tape, overall I feel so much healthier and I’m 80 in June, 24/7 is the way to go if you can do it, three months ago I was in hospital and five guys in my ward were sleeping with their mouths wide open, rather sad, you keep up the good work your a hero. Oh and I’ve started humming a lot.
Well done Barrie. Patrick
Well done Patrick I am 45 and I admire what you have done. I am recovering as well from traumas, stress, etc. That nearly killed me. And humming tunes in your immune system. Lucky you.... Thomas
Can you clarify what you mean by 24/7?
i feel pain in my shoulder.it is normal?
@@sl4983 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. In other words, all the time
Currently dealing with COVID. Woke up last night with shortness of breath. I just kept trying to breath deeply through my mouth… as you can imagine, this only made it worse. Went to the ER to get my vitals checked and everything was fine thankfully. When I got home, this video is the only thing I found that could get me to sleep. It helped get me through today as well. Thank you so so much. 🙏
How are you now my friend if you dont mind me asking?
Why couldn’t the doctors in ER be of more help??…isn’t that what ER is about??
@@christineboydstrongtower Yeah, I’m with you. I’m not going to get into my opinions on here, but there’s not really an at home treatment that doctors will tell you to follow. They just tell you to come back if your oxygen drops below 93% or 92%. That’s the scariest part about all of this to me. I’m just thankful for this video!
@@WynnnC how are you now! I’m going on 3* years of shortness of breath and symptoms are getting worse! I hope you got better.
@@shelley7209 hi there! I made a full recovery from just following the steps in this video. While it was a very real problem, a lot of it was mental for me. I now find myself breathing through my nose much more frequently in everyday life. I hope you get to feeling better! This video was amazing for me. I understand how scary it is.
This video is so helpful! I had COVID19 back in December 2019...I was VERY sick for 5 weeks (I had symptoms for 3 weeks before getting really really sick. Back them we didn’t even know that COVID-19 existed, I remember myself crying in bed... feeling like leaving this earth...not prepared to leave my dogs behind) . During the summer of 2020 my health was just fine, I had energy and for the first time since COVID-19, I had zero breathing problems. It is now fall of 2020 ...allergy season is here and I’m having some new allergy symptoms....one of them is that I’m finding myself out of breath. And that makes me feel heart palpitations. Heart palpitations make me anxious....anxiety doesn’t let me fall as sleep. I will be watching this video in it’s entirety.... and I will be practicing this breathing exercises.
Love all your info Patrick,doing my belly breathing,mouth taping at night,a breath hols,now getting to up to 35/40,changed my life,thank you.
I wish I had known about this 4 months ago, before I got covid. After watching this video I now understand what went wrong. I've literally made myself sicker by breathing the wrong way. It's been 3,5 months now, still not recovered, but getting a little bit better by breathing better. I only hope there is no permanent damage...
I hope you are healing 100% 🙏
How are you doing these days?
It's been 2 months for me and I can't believe it takes so long to recover! I pray for no haul side effects for both of us! Doctors don't tell you anything about the correct breathing techniques !
@@SuperSoraya50 I'm approaching 2 months too and it's been rough. I can honestly say proper breathing has helped me so much. Some days I can't do anything more than a 20 min walk. Can't watch TV too much or do anything except eat and breathe. It does get better, very slowly. Make sure you eat healthy, stay hydrated, sleep well and try your best not to stress. One day at a time. I had 2 "relapses" where I got myself sick again by doing too much
@@dtla5052 I know! I walked on the beach for an hour last week, and got so tired, the heat in Florida makes my oxygen level decrease, so I can't stay too long! I do eat healthy, I am from France and always ate a Mediterranean diet. I used to be so active everyday, plus work as a server, and now I can't do anything, and I am getting bored sitting home watching TV. As far as sleep, it has worsen, and I am experiencing hair loss. I just started taking antibiotics for pneumonia, and all these issues are kind of getting me down at times! This virus from hell, is the worse illness I ever had of my 61 years of being alive!! I pray we both get well in Jesus name, and God restores us to perfect health! God bless you Jack!
@@SuperSoraya50 Amen. Yes it really is. I never been sick or had any health problems. I never expirenced fatigue before unless I was sprinting or doing heavy squats/deadlifts. Now I feel it all day long. Its really messed with my sleep too. I was working 2 jobs. Now I work 2 days a week and only 4 hours per shift. Can't really do much too and it was getting me down. I hear the hair loss from covid is only temporary and after a year you should be growing it back. I believe we are going to heal, even if it is slowly. One day at a time, sometimes the anxiety is bad so for me its one breathe at a time. I pray for our healing, God bless 🙏❤
Thank you for this video; you are a calming presence in this scary and chaotic time. I attended a clinic you did in Ohio about 11 yrs ago and it changed my life. To this day, I do your meditation in the morning and at night. I was diagnosed with asthma and bronchiectasis, and because of all of your techniques, I am completely medicine and inhaler free and in control of my breathing. I wish you would do more videos and meditations. I am scared of getting covid-19 given my health conditions, but I am thankful I have these tools and am confident I could beat it.
Wow. Linda. Time flies. Thanks very much for getting in touch. Patrick

This is so wonderful, there is no word to express my gratitude adequately. Thanks for posting this so much XO
Thank you so much for this! God sent!
Excellent teaching. I could feel your genuine concern for people and their well-being.
This is Buteiko exercises.Not your exercises.OMG.
Thank you for taking the time to teach us these techniques, I appreciate this.
Thank you you’re adorable and so
really professional. Blessings galore dear doc!
Thank you for your generosity to share your professional knowledge 🙏
Thank you. Will incorporate this daily.
Because of your techniques, I don't have to make a trip to the ER every night after Dinner. Learned a lot from you Patrick. Techniques that works.
I had covid-19 and am on oxygen. I was released from the hospital after 33 days and sent home with 4 Ltrs of oxygen per minute and had been unable to lower it even after three weeks. I just tried this and reduced my oxygen need while in bed to 2! This is incredible I will definitely keep doing it. Thank you so much Dr. and God bless you for sharing this information. 🙏🙏🙏
Thats amazing, any updates?
Hi I read your comment. Hope you're doing better now. I don't want to ne rude but may I ask what vaccination you received?
Hi I read your comment. Hope you're doing better now. I don't want to ne rude but may I ask what vaccination you received?
Although not at 100 % still, I am much better. I am completely off the oxygen but still tend to run out of breath in situations I ever did before. I also do get tired faster, but that's ok, I'm just thankful I get to still be here for my 12 yr old daughter
Since then, I have been vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine
Your book is changing my life.
ALL i can say is thank you .
Great Thanks for letting me know Zaki. Patrick
OMG. GOD BLESS YOU FOR INFORMING US AND TAKING THE TIME & ENERGY TO BE REPETITIVE IN EXPLAINING
THESE DIFFERENT EXERCISES.
FOR THOSE OF US IN NEED AND EXPERIENCING ANXIETY OVER NOT KNOWING HOW TO HELP OURSELVES, THIS IS THE ONLY WAY WE WILL PROCESS THIS PRICELESS INFORMATION. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!! 😇🙏❤️
Thank you I will do this exercise
Hi Linda!
I'm so glad to have reached at least one person with my comment about this man. He is truly an angel on earth in the he explains this so many times. He realizes that those of us with Covid-19 are in a panic mode and very scared. that
Hi Linda!
Thank you for replying to my comment about this remarkable man. He is truly an angel for us. He absolutely realizes that those of us with Covid-19 are in psychological panic mode, frightened and nervous especially if we are alone at home without any professional medical attention. That's why he is so repetitive. He drives it home to make sure we "get it".
In his video, he lovingly gives us the tools we need to be able to help ourselves.
He has made a very substantial contribution. If you're alone at home, it is important to monitor your vitals everyday. Like he mentions, see if you can find an oximeter. Try to find a blood pressure kit and a reliable thermometer. Record the readings in the morning when you wake up and in the evening. I hope for your speedy recovery.
❤️🙏🌹
Cured my asthma that I had for about 20 years. Had to use an inhaler around 5 times a day. THIS REALLY WORKS!!
Mr123slayer123 so happy you healed yourself! Thank you for sharing!!
How long did you practice these exercises before noticing a difference?
Many blessings to you and your family.
Such a great testimonial.
Well done. Patrick
Oxygen Advantage Hi I have a question. I think I have the virus, I have shortness of breath and I can’t sleep, i almost fall to sleep and are awakened by this inability to be able to swallow, it feels like anxiety , it’s really scary! any advice?
Kind sir, thankyou for posting this video. God bless you and your family and friends.
Quite coincidentally I came across The Oxygen Advantage by Patrick McKeown about 6 months ago and have adopted the techniques including taping the mouth when sleeping at night. I do a lot of exercise, running and cycling, and it has transformed my performance for the better and my breathing is now properly controlled. When I started my BOLT score was around 15 seconds but now I'm up to 40. Another benefit is my sleep quality is much better and correct sleep also helps the immune system.
fireflyrobert what tape do you recommend ? Also take long to get used it ?
@@collybarry 3M micropore surgical tape - many pharmacies have them and also you can buy online
collybarry im using 3m silicone tape it is very gentle to the lips
I tried taping my mouth. It gave me huge panic attacks and a lot of air shortage during the day.
@@jpsittt thats strange , i toxygenates me so well
It is amazing that I am just learning how to breathe correctly at age 67, but I just became aware of my bronchiectasis last year, thank you. I will start this practice several times a day.
How is it going since incorporating this practice?
Thank you for taking this time and sharing this information and breathing techniques. As a 3-time Open-Heart Surgery Patient w/Congestive Heart Failure, Sleep Apnea & Asthma. I found these breathing exercises most valuable and helpful to my overall oxygen saturation, 99% was displayed throughout your video as I continued the LSD Breathing. I remembered during first 12hrs following Aortic Valve Replacement 20yrs ago, I breathed just like your LSD Breathing, in hopes that making myself breathe slowly and deeply, would help to get the ventilator removed sooner rather than later. It worked! I was removed from the Ventilator many hours sooner than anticipated. It makes so much sense now, after listening to you in this video. Thank you
I used to worked out six days a week for 60 minutes and never had breathing problems until Covid-19 second bout. I woke up one morning walking through my house I got winded and to sit down. A few days later I was really sick so I made an appointment with my doctor. She wrote a prescription for an inhaler. Two years later Pulmonologist ordered lung screening, shows nothing to worry about. I’m on BREO now for COPD and want off of this therapy. I will be using the instructions to breathe better. Thanks
Been suffering from COVID for a month now. I'm speaking from India. I shook hands with an American visiting here. From the next hour onward, my asthma aggrevated. It increased to the extent I started having attacks by day12. Had to rush in emergency to the hospital to pull off my attacks. I'm having diarrhoea, joint pain and a feeling of weakness and headache for almost everyday now. I'm doing only fine with my asthma meds for now. I recovered fully without meds 9days ago. But 2days before my asthma came back. Some people's testimonies are true about the virus. Once you feel you're recovering, the virus puts you down again as if coming back for vengeance. I don't know how long this will go but the good thing is my lungs are fine by the CT scan. I'm searching several sources to bring down my asthma. This one's helping for sure. Thank you doctor. Stay home, stay safe. Follow the guidelines. This virus is surely a thing!
Should have washed your hands
@@Yvette-wb9uv did everything almost instantaneously but nothing worked.Seems like I had put my finger on my nose earlier lol
Thanks you Lok. Yes, practise the many small breath hold exercise for ten minutes every hour. Nose breathe and slow breathe all time. Patrick
Thank you so much......I have respiratory issues, coughing issues, wheezing etc. This is so beneficial!!
Thank you. For your contribution to humanity.
I got covid in September 2022, I used to walk approx 12,000-16,000 steps per day, since I started with covid it’s been a nightmare as I haven’t been able to walk like I used to, am doing deep breathing exercises which is helping. Thank you for this, I will continue with this.
It can't have been easy @iriswoodhead6132,
Well done on the positive steps you've take to improve your situation and thanks for the comment.

I get bronchitis, so I am very practicing being safer.
This breathing exercise is concise and helps reduce difficulty in breathing. Thank you so much!
Thank you ! God Reward You Abundantly!
You sir are a treasure! Thank you so much for posting this. I have been doing Wim Hof breathing for a while and have recently found James Nestor’s work and there heard about you and I’m so glad I did. Your delivery is caring your approach is solid and your acronym LSD is the best. 🙏🏻
Well explained...easy to understand..I learned more about recovery breathing than any video post. Practical, non-technical explanations, and straight to the point. Thank YOU! I subscribed for ALL notifications .
You are a great instructor. I learned more about my body and the respiratory system than I did in biology class. Thank you.
Thank you Dr Anders. Patrick
What a wonderful Masterclass! For free!! This is called L.O.V.E.! This Doctor is such an example of competence + humbleness! I thank God for your precious life! It moved me to listen to all the detailed explanation. Interestingly, I already practice reducing/holding my breath while in unhealthy situations. I’ve always moved away quickly if someone sneezed or coughed near me! I think of other respiratory diseases, such as TB, that can contaminate us through the air. A big THANK YOU, Dr McKeown! God bless you and your family!
Xcellent including the humming .you teach with love and care
Wow.. thank you so much. I think I've learned more of you in this MC that I did on my whole breathing education I took last year. Thank you.

Thank you so much, Patrick. This video is amazing. All you do is amazing. I appreciate all the time you give to help people.
I feel that I have just came in the world I just came to know how to breath thanks a lot
I had beginning COPD, unknown cause, several years ago; rx with Albuterol inhaler prn. I asked if I needed any Pulm classes & was told no. (Altho, I needed an inhalation treatment after my knee surgery in ‘08 & ‘19). I also have Chronic Rhinitis with lower nasal sinus swelling; rx with nasal spray Azelastine. I was trying the salt-inhaler for my lungs & the Neti-pot nasal rinses to clear sinuses. Always a mouth-breather!
THANK YOU for this breathing exercises video!
🌷When I was taking ‘black Seed oil’ (1Tbs+ p/day) for a bad cold, for the first time in 40 years my sinus’ were clear; I could breathe at night! (closed mouth:~)
It tastes horrific!... like paint thinner smells (only worse)
I withstood the taste using a bit of honey (touch the spoon into honey, then out- 1/8th tsp?) which cancels out the horrific taste... but I was ‘burping paint thinner’ for hours. (good thing I’m strong-willed, or maybe just crazy:~)
I was also taking Oreganol P73; that is amazing also!
Now, due to this awful pandemic, I’m starting to take both again...
along with vitamin D3, 13 grams of vitamin C, Zinc lozenges etc... and a sugar-free 😒... green diet. This virus is about your immune system...
I’m hoping to have cheesecake for my birthday in November! 🙂
‘Didn’t intend for this to be so wordy- sorry. Best of luck to you and yours 💚
Thank you for the excellent demonstration. Let’s save lives! Be healthy everyone.

Thank you for sharing in our time of need. Blessing to you.
Thank you for your thoughtful, kind work and sharing it.
Many thanks. I'm sure I've been a mouth-breather most of my life. In the last few weeks I've been using some of the techniques of Buteyko - nose-breathing, humming etc - and feel much less anxious, more energy, sleeping better, waking more refreshed. I've not had covid. The advice from Patrick has helped me feel less tense about catching it. Great to read how it's helping other people as well. Bravo Patrick
Thank you for your time and expertise Patrick.
Thanks so much! you a wonderful to take the tie to do this. We are all in this together... Thanks again! USA

Thank you so much!
Thank you is WAS a breath of fresh air!👍
Thank you very much , I am breathing so much slower, calmer, deeper , really enjoyed the exercises
Thanks for posting this.
I found this at the beginning of Covid as my husband has childhood asthma to have something to help BEFORE - preventative - a word our medical world has never had in the SAT testing:( . Now I am a Buteyko instructor as it influences ALL HEALTH. Thank you Patrick - you are a TRAILBLAZER long before Breathing became popular💕
You sir, are one of the best things in this life, Arrigato🙏🏽
Some of the best information I could find.
I find the connection between humming and the use of 'Ommmm' by Buddhist while meditation to be interesting.
I would like to read more about the physiology of humming/meditation/moaning. I will start with McKeown's books to see what references come up.
Yes, same idea.
What is humming?

I absolutely feel as though I woke up the winner of the jackpot this morning with this video!! This is THE video I've been searching for to aid me with my breathing. 🌞...hummmmmmm...💪
Thank you Patrick, God bless and stay safe
Thank you so much for explaining simply....I have been an Asmatic for over50 years no one not even the many stays in hospital has ever given me advice like this...thank you x
Perfect time to practice breathing exercise
Great info! Thanks for covering over a few times...it help me internalize it to use it
Thank you, Patrick! This is wonderful information. God bless you!
Dr. you are saint! I believe this will save my lungs and my life!!!
Thank you!
Thanks for enlightening, there’s no better time for what you’ve talked about!
This is very good. Thank you. I am here after Chris Cuomo talked about fighting off Covid-19 with pulmonary exercises. UA-cam should suggest this video more often.
Eduarda Marques Hello me too!! This is very helpful. Stay safe and blessings to you.
This is absolute rubbish, no breathing exercise can reduce the risk of getting any virus.
@@scarred10 Have you tried this exercise yet? Why are you disputing this?
You are the only person that feels this way ? He did not say it is medically proven or that you won't get the virus. But if it does'nt help the person , it certainly won't them
@@scarred10 The point of breathing exercises is not to reduce the risk of getting the virus. It is to reinforce your lungs to increase vitality and capacity, and reduce the effects on your lungs. When things are getting iffy on breathing, you want every advantage you can get. Being in good shape lung-wise is a good measure. You would be surprised how many things we can do for ourselves, for our own health. Most don't take to self-responsibility, we've been trained otherwise and of course if you won't do for yourself, than you'd likely prefer to take the attitude you are showing. But why not reconsider and try? You might be glad if it's you that's needing oxygen to get through this or maybe not.
What happened to breathing out through your mouth?
Patrick you are amazing! And thank you!!
I stumbled upon this gentleman when researching Buteyko. I then downloaded and read his amazing book, The Oxygen Advantage. That book I do believe is truly life-changing. This video mentions a lot of the stuff from that book but if you're looking for more information on these methods then definitely try out his book. I am still new into these breathing exercises but I can already tell there are some differences in my sleep. Woke up this morning feeling refreshed for the first time in awhile. I breathe through my nose all day and do his breathing exercises 3 times per day in 10 minute periods. Looking forward to the long lasting effects of living healthfully and improving my lungs.
Useful lesson very explanatory for the public that doesn’t understand the importance of good breathing thanks you for your time.
Thank you so much. Recovering from Covid with pneumonia blood clots and PE. I’m 3 months out from beginning of Covid these exercises seem so much more calming and affective then what I was told
God bless you, hope you are feeling better these days 🙏
Thank you. God bless.
You are a very kind and generous person, thank you!
Thank you so much for this webinar. I started with an online Buteyko technique breathing course on March 22 and it isn't easy to change a breathing habit. Fortunately I am becoming more and more aware of positive physical changes. Your video is very illustrative and supportive and a most welcome addition to my course :0))
thank you so much Doc. You have educated me in the right way of doing breathething exercises and i have learned the benefits of nasal breathing. Very good explanations. Thank you so much. Will shear.
I have COPD, best tools I ever used. Thank you
Number one Doctor P.Keyown to heavens.
There is much that we take for granted regarding our human body. Everything is important such as "SIMPLY BREATHING" and "HANDWASHING TECHNIQUES"
After major brain surgery a few years ago the way I was breathing got completely screwed up. I was constantly unintentionally hyperventilating and nearly passing out. I am so so glad I found your video, because the way you’ve described this and with the instructions you’ve given, you’ve just helped me more with 40mins of video than the months of breathing therapy I had! Thank you.
So very helpful thank u SO MUCH!! For ALL of us with lung problems 👏🥰
Yoga - Meditation Breathing, we all come with a number of breaths.. In Tibet they teach how to slow down the breath to live longer.
So circular breathe! I play didgeridoo and can play from 45minutes to 2hours on one breath, depending on humidity.
@David Blue If one's life can be measured in the number of breaths taked - the fewer taken the longer the life. If one died It could be said you have a point.
Thank you, thank you. I'm recovering from a respiratory event and this was extremely helpful! I hope a great many people see this.
Great to hear Steven. Patrick
Hey what respiratory event are you talking about? I'm having difficulty in breathing would be nice of we could talk.
I'm recovering from COVID-19 at home. Thank you so much for this video. Your instruction and explanations are excellent. You demeanor is so trustworthy. I'm going to do the exercises every hour. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
Wishing you a speedy recovery Rich. Patrick
Get well soon
Y prayers are with you
❤️
Hope you’re well
Thank you Patrick!!
I’m breathless over this guy and his irish accent!
