Patrick Mckeown, Expert Breathing Advisor on Breathing Re-Education and How to Improve Health Conditions Through Breath

Live from the Live Better recording studio! Bret is here this week with Patrick Mckeown, world-renowned and best-selling author of “The Oxygen Advantage” and breathing practitioner. Patrick’s mission is to empower people to take control of their own health, well-being and fitness using simple breathing exercises proven to improve body oxygenation.

 

From a young age, Patrick suffered from asthma and relied on an array of medicines and inhalers. After 20 years of suffering, Patrick was able to cure himself from asthma by applying the principles of the Buteyko Breathing Method from the Buteyko Clinic, Moscow, Russia. 

In a career spanning 15 years, Patrick has since also become a bestselling author and expert on the topic of optimal breathing for improved health, well being and fitness.

In this episode we breakdown the secrets to:

1. Calculating your bolt score to see how functional your breathing is, and how that can translate to breathing during exercise
2. Exercises to improve your breathing for increased performance and decreased inflammation through the nose
3. The benefits of nasal breathing in order to strengthen the muscles that help you breathe, and reduce breathlessness during physical exercise

 

Listen in as Bret discusses with Patrick about the different types of breathing and ways to identify how you can improve your breathing patterns. This can ultimately help with recovery and the strength of your lungs.
