Stop Suffering From Multiple

Symptoms

──── Hi, Matt Cook here. Many years ago, I was

introduced to a breathing therapy that put an end

to my asthma and several other medical

symptoms that I had suffered from most of my

life. The therapy is based on extensive scientific

research.

As you well know, I strongly prefer treating the

root causes of health problems rather than

masking the symptoms. Without a doubt, one of

the best parts of this therapy is that it requires

NO pills, NO supplements, NO gym workouts, or

any other expensive and time-consuming

methods.

The fact is, you can do it anywhere and at any

time. It can be done in the comfort of your home.

In an easy chair, a recliner, standing up... most

any position that you find comfortable. Once you

get the hang of it, it becomes the natural way

that you take every breath. That’s important,

because ultimately how you draw every breath

can prevent many health symptoms from ever

coming back.

Of course, if you have a serious health problem

you need to seek medical advice and possibly

treatment. However, I’ve never met a doctor that

considered what you will discover here as being

any threat to your health. Some doctors might

not think you’ll benefit much, but if you ask, I

seriously doubt they will tell you to not try it.

I expect you and your doctor to be a bit skeptical

that simply making a few simple changes to your

breathing habits can make a lot of chronic

medical symptoms just go away. You should be

asking yourself, why haven’t I heard of this

before?

You see, this marvelous breathing method was

discovered by a Russian doctor/scientist during

the Soviet era. He was a top doc to the very first

Soviet cosmonauts - before man had even made

it into space. Dr. Buteyko was in charge of

making sure they would survive breathing in zero

gravity and finding the best composition of air for

them to breathe. As you may know, the Soviets

put the first man in space. Dr. Buteyko was a key

member of the team that did it.

“A new dawn is emerging by recognizing that

correct breathing volume is fundamental to

maintaining good health, the new beginning

is based on the life’s work of Russian

scientist professor Konstantin Buteyko.”

This was also the era of the Cold War. The

Soviets and the Americans were working hard at

figuring out how to blow each other off the face

of the earth. They weren't exactly sharing

medical breakthroughs at the time. That's a big

reason why American and other Western doctors

aren't familiar with Dr. Buteyko's research and

discoveries.

Since then, American and other Western doctors

limit their knowledge of breakthroughs to when a

drug salesman stops by to introduce the latest

billion dollar drug their pharmaceutical company

has put out on the market. The salesman tells

them what diseases and symptoms it’s

supposed to treat and that's that - another big

pharma drug is on the market. You had just

better hope the problems this new drug creates

aren't as bad as the one it fixes.

Before going further, let’s briefly review previous

newsletters where my research team and I have

touched on proper breathing techniques that are

scientifically proven to be responsible for major

health improvements…

As I often say, “See you at 120!”

Proper breathing has been discussed in several

previous newsletters, but not in great detail.

In Newsletter Issue 7, is an article about

minimizing stress and using bag breathing as a

great ways to lower prolactin levels. Bag

breathing is the western medical equivalent to

the proper breathing techniques covered in detail

in this newsletter. Bag breathing increases

carbon dioxide levels. Higher carbon dioxide

levels actually raises the amount of oxygen

reaching the tissues.

Newsletter Issue 12 has an article about

controlling and reducing anxiety symptoms.

Several controlled experiments involved

hundreds of people to simulate hyperventilation.

One study had participants hold their breath to

increase CO2 levels and another involved

breathing air with higher concentrations of CO2.

“There is a bidirectional association between

hyperventilation and anxiety, as evidenced

Benefits From Proper Breathing

by the fact that individuals with idiopathic

hyperventilation have been shown to score

higher on anxiety and depression scales than

do control subjects. Hyperventilation can

therefore be considered a cause, a correlate

and a consequence of panic attacks.”

Hyperventilation is about breathing too fast and

taking in too much air. Proper breathing is all

about breathing slower to take in the correct

amount of air. Proper breathing is a natural way

to better control anxiety and panic attacks.

Newsletter Issue 16 has an article about

increasing your thyroid (very important).

Eliminating foods that lower your thyroid,

increasing your salt intake, and doing breathing

exercises - all of these can raise your thyroid.

Newsletter Issue 18 more directly discussed

what this newsletter goes into detail about - the

magic of the Oxygen RemedyTM. It has the

ability to double the blood flow to your penis.

This is a simple breathing technique that you can

begin immediately.

The Oxygen RemedyTM increases the amount of

oxygen getting to your cells. Just as importantly,

it increases nitric oxide in the blood. Nitric oxide

increases the size of blood vessels carrying

blood to the penis, and contracts the size of

vessels carrying the blood out.

Increasing blood flow to all the organs and cells

helps all health problems immeasurably. It fixes

or cures a lot of health problems because many

of them are caused by not enough oxygen

reaching the tissues.

Newsletter Issue 25 has several important

articles on the subjects of Lungs, Shock,

Inflammation, and Aging. One was about a

condition called ‘shock lung’ or ‘wet lung.’

What’s happening here is too much oxygen is

damaging the lungs, and the available oxygen is

NOT getting to the organs and tissues where it is

needed.

The causes and solutions are twofold. First,

many people need more carbon dioxide in their

body. Again, the breathing exercises you’re

about to learn will increase the carbon dioxide in

your body.

The chances of recovering from (or not

developing) wet lung improve with proper

breathing to increase carbon dioxide, with

lowering estrogen, and with eliminating PUFAs.

ALL OF WHICH CONTRIBUTE TO BETTER

HEALTH AND A LONGER LIFE!

Newsletter Issue 27 is about increasing

testosterone levels. When you fix the things that

affect your breathing and your heart, you also

often get better results in your sex life.

A number of studies have hinted that tai chi

prevents age-related cognitive decline and

dementia. Tai chi is a gentle form of exercise

combined with breathing that was developed in

China. It’s similar to yoga.

Tai chi’s been used in China for more than

800 years, and it increases oxygen-rich blood

flow to the penis naturally …

A recent human study shows that tai chi

increases blood flow to critical regions of the

brain. Scientists did not see these effects with

normal exercise. Mind-body exercises are a kind

of hybrid between physical exercise and

meditation - because they incorporate

systematic breathing techniques.

Newsletter Issue 28 was a special edition early

in the COVID-19 pandemic. The focus was

stress and anxiety brought on by COVID-19.

Suggested techniques for reducing stress and

anxiety included:

• Transcendental meditation.

4

• Mindfulness-based stress reduction

exercises.

• Yoga meditation and exercises.

• Stretching exercises.

• Breathing exercises.

Noticeable here are other techniques with a very

long history of naturally helping people, including

Transcendental and Yoga meditation/exercises.

Both of these ancient techniques place

prominent emphasis on proper breathing

methods.

Newsletter Issue 32 has articles about eating

your way to healthy weight loss. Healthy

breathing enhances your basal metabolic rate

(BMR). BMR - even at rest, the body needs

energy to keep all systems functioning correctly

(breathing, heart, growing and repairing cells,

and adjusting hormone levels). The body’s BMR

accounts for the largest amount of energy

expended daily - 50 to 80 percent of your daily

energy use.

It should be no surprise how often proper

breathing comes up related to staying healthy

naturally.

There is plenty more scientific evidence on the

importance of healthy breathing….

Breathe this way to get super-firm

erections… try it now!

I’ve heard the term “mouth breather” used as an

insult. Usually, it means a person is dim-witted or

dumb. While the insult is certainly cruel, the

reality is that mouth breathing isn’t good for you

AT ALL.

It can cause many health problems - including

asthma. That’s because it messes up the

CO2/oxygen balance in your body and can

create a chronic and low-level state of

hyperventilation.

Your doctor isn’t going to tell you this, mostly

because 99% of doctors don’t know how

beneficial nose breathing is to your health. After

all, there isn’t much profit motive in saying,

“breathe with your mouth closed.”

Here’s the thing: I’ve been teaching about

breathing through your nose for years now…

And a new study just came out that showed yet

ANOTHER benefit of nose breathing - having a

better memory!

Crazily enough, breathing through your nose

improves your memory. In this Swedish study,

the researchers told their participants to learn 12

different smells on 2 different occasions. And

they had to remember which smell went with

which session.

During the learning phase, the researchers

instructed people to either mouth breathe or

nose breathe.

And the nose breathers were better able to

remember which smells came from which

session.

“The results showed that when the

participants breathed through their noses

between the time of learning and recognition,

they remembered the smells better.”

This effect on memory seems to be due to a

process called memory consolidation.

Nose breathing specifically seems to help our

memories get stored in the brain in a way that

Breathing for Better Erections

5

makes them easier to retrieve.

“Our study shows that we remember smells

better if we breathe through the nose when

the memory is being consolidated – the

process that takes place between learning

and memory retrieval…”

Of course, traditional practices that promote

meditation understand the importance of proper

breathing… and have long used breathing as a

way to control human behavior and physiological

responses.

Now scientists are beginning to offer clinical

evidence that nose-breathing has a whole host

of positive effects on the human body.

“The idea that breathing affects our behavior

is actually not new… In fact, the knowledge

has been around for thousands of years in

such areas as meditation. But no one has

managed to prove scientifically what actually

goes on in the brain. We now have tools that

can reveal new clinical knowledge.”

Don’t worry, if you’re a mouth breather, you can

become a nose breather with just a little bit of

effort. Here’s how…

How to breathe through your nose (instead of

your mouth)

There are 2 steps to becoming a nose breather

or breathing through your nose consistently.

1) Awareness

Many people breathe through their mouth when

they are exercising or bored. Observe your own

behavior to become aware of when you mouth

breathe… then every time you realize you are

mouth breathing, all you have to do is shut your

mouth.

Many people report feeling much more alert

when nose breathing.

If you are a regular mouth breather, nose

breathing will often feel a bit uncomfortable at

first. But if you keep at it, it will become a habit

and greatly improve your health.

2) Sleeping

It’s harder to control your breath when you sleep

and many people breathe through their mouths

during slumber. But there is an easy solution.

Simply put a piece of medical tape over your

mouth while you sleep and you’ll start nose

breathing instead of mouth breathing. Taping

your mouth at night with medical tape can seem

a little crazy at first, but it’s well worth the effort.

Nose breathing is hugely beneficial to your

health and probably your memory too. It’s worth

developing the habit of breathing through your

nose even if it takes a bit of effort to accomplish.

This sleep position cuts off oxygen-rich

blood flow…

Sometimes people sleep with their heads

covered up by blankets…… often after waking

up temporarily when lighting conditions interfere

with their sleep.

Yet there are others who do this always and

even in pitch darkness… perhaps as a comfort

habit or to quickly increase under-blanket

temperature.

This has long been thought of as a more or less

innocuous habit.

But a recent survey shows a strong link

between sleeping with one’s head covered in

blankets and Alzheimer’s disease.

Sleeping This Way Causes

Hypoxia — Can Cause

“Rockiness” Problems

6

This survey was conducted by Barry Stanley, a

statistical amateur and Canadian grade-school

teacher with no credentials in epidemiology or

biochemistry.

So some would tend to disregard the data for

this reason - especially “turtle sleepers” who

would prefer to think it is safe.

But his methods were actually not much different

from other methods used in studies published in

peer-reviewed journals.

“92.8% of those who practiced any form of

head covering while sleeping will suffer from

either an early, middle, or late stage of

dementia at or after 70 years of age.”

Such powerful correlations are hard to ignore, as

his survey includes results from 443 people.

These findings are certainly statistically

significant, despite the formal p-value not having

been calculated by Stanley. (It’s not important

that you know what a p-value is.)

Stanley proposes no real mechanism for the

effect (of why covering your head with blankets

causes dementia).

Now I’m going to talk about a condition called

hypoxia - where the body or a region of the

body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply

at the tissue level.

Hypoxia when caused by other things - e.g.,

carbon monoxide poisoning or sleep apnea - has

convincingly been shown to be correlated with

both brain atrophy and reduced cognition.

And then there’s vascular dementia…a

common form of dementia thought to be

dependent on reduced cerebral blood flow. It

is often caused by atherosclerosis.

Reduced blood flow can obviously limit the

delivery of many important biomolecules,

glucose among others.

But when it comes to sleeping with your head

under the covers…

The contribution of reduced oxygen certainly

cannot be discounted… It could be the

primary cause.

“Given the results as submitted, there is

strong indication that head covering while

sleeping has a significant impact on the

occurrence and advance of dementia.”

Yet hypoxia and cerebral ischemia (inadequate

blood supply) are nearly 2 sides of the same

coin, as you will see…

Acute hypoxia induces rapid changes in the

cells’ enzymes - meant to increase blood flow

and thus acquire more oxygen.

Yet such changes ultimately diminish oxygen

flow the moment normal air is breathed again.

This rebound effect could be caused by

vasoconstriction (constriction of blood

vessels).

Specifically, vasoconstriction induced by lowered

concentrations of carbon dioxide (hypocapnic

vasoconstriction). Hypocapnic vasoconstriction

is a well-established phenomenon. Since the

1940s, it’s been reliably shown to occur.

This may be expected to occur because

carbonic anhydrase, the enzyme that turns

carbon dioxide (CO2) into bicarbonate (HCO3−),

is powerfully upregulated by hypoxia.

Lack of oxygen has also been shown to

decrease dopamine in the brain…

7

Possibly this is because, in the formation of

dopamine, we need oxygen added to tyrosine

(an amino acid).

Although serotonin concentrations can also be

found decreased after hypoxia, studies show

that dopamine is more affected than

serotonin.

Serotonin synthesis seems to depend more on

tryptophan availability than oxygen

concentrations.

“…it is thus suggested that the observed

changes in tryptophan hydroxylation may in

part depend on the changes in tryptophan

availability. This did not seem to be the case

concerning tyrosine hydroxylation and

tyrosine availability.” (Hedner, 1977)

Yet, such transient reductions are unlikely to

persist for long. And they cannot explain the

reduced blood flow consistently shown in

dementia.

Knowing what we know about hypoxia in

general, you could reasonably expect “turtle

sleeping” to temporarily lower cognitive function.

And since this practice tends to be habitual,

you could perhaps rightly infer that people

who sleep this way would have an increased

risk of dementia.

The practice is no more common than dementia

- 11% of a 100-person sample in Massachusetts

admitted sleeping this way (King, 1972).

The ongoing survey by Barry Stanley includes

more people than any other (443 people). And it

shows a nearly threefold higher prevalence in

“undercover sleeping” (29.7%) among his

participants.

However, he does use a somewhat subjective

graded scale including milder stages of dementia

as response options:

Sleeping Practices (Percentage, rounded):

a) 70.3% always sleep with their head

completely uncovered. May even prefer window

open.

b) 12.6% occasionally sleep with covers drawn

above eye level, completely covering the mouth

and nose.

c) 3.2% often sleep with covers above eye level,

completely covering the mouth and nose.

d) 3.4% occasionally sleep with covers drawn

completely over their head.

e) 2.3% often sleep with covers drawn

completely over their head.

f) 8.3% often sleep with either the head covered

or partially covered at or about eye level.

In comparing those who never cover their

head during sleep to those that practice

some level of covering:

a: those that never cover their head: 70.3%

b, c, d, e, f: those that practice some level of

covering: 29.7%

This prevalence could be a bit artificial and

subject to selection bias.

His survey can be freely taken online by anyone.

So participants with this habit may be self-

selecting more often via Google searches and

word of mouth.

“100% of those who practiced the most

serious levels of head covering (c, d, and e

above) while sleeping will suffer from either

an early, middle, or late stage of dementia at

or after 70 years of age.”

Yet, this is the only survey that correlates

dementia strictly with head-covered sleeping.

Although Stanley presents the data in a hard-

to-grasp table format, it can be made more

intuitive using graphing software.

8

The correlations are more convincing when

restricted to the 70+ age group (especially when

some sleeping grades are summed together).

But the graph shows the results of all 443 people

with all grades separated as in the original table.

With additional degrees of blanket coverage -

going from left to right on the graph - a general

increase in dementia prevalence can be

observed.

This data isn’t a perfect dose-dependent

increase, of course, as the categories are

somewhat subjective…

For instance: What is the difference in arterial

oxygen between those who “often cover to eye

level” and those who “occasionally cover above

head”?

Since it also depends on such things as blanket

weight, blanket porosity, and number of blankets

used, you probably wouldn’t expect extremely

convincing correlations anyway.

This is especially true when considering that

dementia can be caused by other things as well,

and not just strictly hypoxia.

Yet this trend is confirmed by a more

elaborate study published in the Journal of

the American Medical Association.

While this study was about sleep apnea and not

about blanket coverage, the results are relevant

because they determined arterial oxygen in 298

subjects during sleep.

Not only that, these researchers measured three

separate indices of hypoxia:

• The oxygen desaturation index.

• The time spent in oxygen saturation.

• The total time spent in apnea.

They recorded multiple parameters while the

subjects were asleep, a process they termed

“polysomnography.”

They also measured sleep fragmentation and

correlated it to cognitive test scores 5 years

later during the final analysis.

This was a prospective study, so it could

determine specifically whether apnea had

caused dementia and not vice versa.

After all was said and done, the only

correlations between dementia and the

polysomnography indices were those of

hypoxia.

Sleep fragmentation had no bearing on the risk

of dementia - only hypoxia did:

“Conversely, no significant association was

seen for the sleep fragmentation or sleep

duration measures of arousal index, wake

after sleep onset, or total sleep time, before

or after adjustment for covariates. Measures

of hypoxia remained significant even after

adjusting for covariates and baseline

cognitive test scores…and sleep time in

apnea/hypopnea…” (Yaffe, 2011)

These results are in accordance with carbon

9

monoxide poisoning in humans and hypoxia

studies in animals.

This study strengthens the supposition that

hypoxia, whatever the precise cause, will

lead to a cascade of events that lower brain

function.

You might expect a few immediate effects from

hypoxia such as lowered dopamine and

decreased microtubule synthesis, reduced

plasticity and remodeling rates, and a

generally reduced metabolism.

Yet carbonic anhydrase 9 is inducible by

hypoxia. (As discussed above, carbonic

anhydrases are a group of enzymes that turns

carbon dioxide into bicarbonate.)

Carbonic anhydrase 9 lowers carbon dioxide, a

powerful regulator of vasoconstriction and

vasodilation:

This hypoxic upregulation of carbonic

anhydrase 9 has been shown to occur in many

different cell types. This effect is so reliable that

carbonic anhydrase 9 is now considered a

biomarker for hypoxia.

Scientists don’t often focus on the physiological

function of this. And when it is, they sometimes

explain it by acidity (Svastová, 2004).

But it could be that carbonic anhydrase 9 is

induced in a desperate attempt by the body

to increase oxygen transport.

It’s well known that carbon monoxide exerts its

toxicity by binding hemoglobin and reducing

oxygen-binding…Yet this property is also shared

by carbon dioxide:

“In vertebrates, hemoglobin plays a central

role both in the transport of oxygen from the

respiratory surfaces to the tissues and in the

transport of carbon dioxide in the opposite

direction.” (Frank, 1991)

These 2 gasses compete with each other for

binding to hemoglobin. So, reducing carbon

dioxide will enhance the oxygen-binding capacity

of hemoglobin.

And this is what carbonic anhydrase ultimately

does - it reduces carbon dioxide by transforming

it into bicarbonate and protons.

Carbonic anhydrase 9 can be induced within

minutes. But its degradation would likely

depend on protein turnover rates.

For this reason, nighttime bouts of hypoxia

could induce changes lasting for days.

And this may tend towards reduced cerebral

blood flow because of high expression of

carbonic anhydrase, lowering the protective and

vasodilatory CO2.

Reduced cerebral blood flow is a classic finding

in dementia - reported about as often as low

acetylcholine, if not more so.

“Perfusion deficits were detected in 34 of 35

patients but in only 4 of 35 controls.”

(O’Brien)

Magnesium increases blood flow to the brain…

And perhaps that’s why it’s been successfully

used to treat dementia.

Yet, regardless of the primary mechanism

behind hypoxia and dementia, there is enough

published evidence to conclude that it’s causal.

So “undercover sleeping” is probably not

something to make a habit of… And if

“undercover sleeping” is already a habit,

10

care should be taken in choosing the right

blankets.

“Among older women, sleep-disordered

breathing was associated with an increased

risk of developing cognitive impairment 5

years later. In addition, even after adjusting

for demographic risk factors and

comorbidities, we found that 2 of 3 indices of

hypoxia (but not sleep fragmentation or

duration) were associated with incident mild

cognitive impairment or dementia,

suggesting that hypoxia is a likely

mechanism through which sleep-disordered

breathing increases risk for cognitive

impairment.” (Yaffe, 2011)

The first revolution in my health was when I

learned some breathing exercises.

Just this step took me from having to take

seven medications, to being completely

medication free - in about 2 weeks.

I learned this technique back in 2005, and life

has been wonderful since then. What I was

doing was essentially introducing the idea of “air

hunger” into my life.

With air hunger, my body readjusted its

thermostat for how much oxygen gets delivered

to my tissues at a time.

And less breathing leads to quicker healing and

better health!

You don’t realize it, but we breathe too much.

I found that the more I breathed, the more

unhealthy I got.

By breathing less, my body actually learned to

oxygenate my tissues better. And I got healthier.

So breathing less let me quit all of my

medications.

You can do the same thing and potentially to get

off of any medications you’re on - it’s an easy

technique. Everyone can learn it.

I’ve taught this technique more recently as “bag

breathing.” And I’ve coached many people to

almost perfect health with these methods.

So here’s a new study that shows that the

bag breathing method works in an actual

clinical study.

The researchers took people who had spinal

cord injuries, and they gave them simple

breathing exercises.

The breathing exercises were intended to

cause what is called transient hypoxia for the

patient.

Transient hypoxia is when you are taking in less

oxygen.

They instructed the patients on how to breathe

less for a few minutes each day.

The researchers were testing this idea of

breathing less to see how it impacted the healing

process.

And by picking people who had the same

type of injury, they could compare healing

times more easily.

That way they could focus on if breathing less

would speed up healing for these spinal cord

patients.

The breathing exercises were a training of sorts.

Less Breathing Leads to

Quicker Healing

11

The body has a sort of thermostat mechanism

that determines how much it wants you to

breathe.

By doing breathing exercises for a few

minutes each day, your body adjusts how

much you need to breathe.

In turn, that lowered thermostat allows you to

breathe less all the time, without your having to

think about it. And it turns out the less you

breathe, the healthier you are. I know, it seems

odd, but it really works.

It’s even better when you do this “breathe

less” exercise while you’re walking.

Walking generates carbon dioxide, and this extra

carbon dioxide allows you to get better results

faster.

But does all of this help you to heal faster or not?

Well… yes, it does.

In the study, people who were walking with

these breathing exercises healed much

faster.

Transient hypoxia (through measured breathing

treatments), along with over-ground walking

training, improves walking speed and endurance

after spinal cord injury.

So the patients who were breathing less

healed faster.

Like I said, the study really has nothing to do

with spinal cord injury. But it’s very interesting

because spinal cord injuries are extremely

difficult to heal under normal circumstances.

And this study showed that breathing exercises

helped the spinal cord injuries to heal

quicker.

The truth is that any injury or illness can be

improved, and often cured, by breathing less.

Breathing less is also why people who live in

high-altitude tend to live longer.

If you’re breathing less, you will live longer.

This seems completely off the wall and

backward since we KNOW that we need oxygen.

And we get oxygen by breathing.

But the strange thing is that the less you

breathe, the more oxygen reaches your

tissues.

And more oxygen reaching your tissues makes

you healthier.

Breathing less is probably one of the top one or

two most important things you can do to restore

your health.

It can lower your blood pressure to normal.

It can remove the fibrosis in your penile tissue.

Breathing less can clear your arteries and

make your heart beat more evenly and

more strongly.

There’s almost nothing that you can’t do by

breathing less.

What you are about to do is a powerful but

simple breathing exercise. So, I'm back on my

“I’m not a doctor” soapbox. The good news is

that the breathing exercise you are about to

learn is good for you. Not bad for you like a

hyperventilation provocation test is. You can be

much less concerned with this procedure.

Especially if you're reasonably healthy.

Still, there are health risks when you change

your breathing habits. If you are not reasonably

Oxygen RemedyTM

Basic and Advanced Reduced

Breathing Exercises

12

healthy, or have difficulty with a hyperventilation

provocation test, you need to seek professional

medical help before beginning the breathing

exercises.

Also, don’t discontinue your medicine when you

begin this routine. Consult with a doctor before

discontinuing your medications… even when

your symptoms lessen.

Before You Begin

We need to cover a few more things before

diving into the basic breathing exercise. First of

all, you need to keep a simple daily log of a few

of your physical details.

The main reason for this is so that you know if

you are getting better and have stopped the

over-breathing.

Make yourself a logbook that looks like this:

The Control Pause

The exercise involves exhaling your breath

slightly more than you normally do. At that time,

you take what is known as the control pause.

Do Not immediately breathe in. Instead, just

don’t breathe momentarily.

No one can tell you exactly how long you should

not breathe. Simply hold that condition until you

feel a mild sensation of a need to breathe.

The amount of time (in seconds) from when you

ended the exhalation until you took the next

breath is the control pause.

You measure this with a stopwatch or second

hand on a watch 5 times during the exercise.

minute mark for a 30 minute exercise.

2. At the end, when you hold your exhale for the

last time.

The Exercise Step-By-Step Instructions

The goal of the Oxygen RemedyTM Breathing

Method is to gradually reset or readjust the

breathing center to higher CO2 values and

reduced minute ventilation (the volume of air

breathed). Both parameters should be closer to

their norms as a result of the exercises.

1. Find a comfortable place. A comfortable chair

is fine, though some people obtain the best

results lying down. Ideally, the location

should be cool but without a draft (typically

people find they become warmer as a result

of the exercise).

2. Begin by relaxing for 5 to 10 minutes. During

this time, breathe as you normally do.

3. Take your initial pulse.

4. Briefly tense as many of your body muscles

as you can, especially your chest and upper

body muscles.

5. Relax, this should result in a gentle

exhalation of your breath.

6. Don’t breathe back in immediately. Don’t

breathe until it begins to become

uncomfortable.

7. Measure and record your first control pause.

8. Pinch your nose if necessary to prevent

accidental breathing.

9. Inhale, but take a shallower than normal

breath.

10. For 3 to 5 minutes discontinue holding your

breath after exhaling and breathe shallow

(not normally).

11. Throughout the exercise you should feel

a constant desire for a little more air.

12. Repeat steps 5 to 10 throughout the 30-

minute session, recording your control

pauses according to the frequency on your

daily log.

13. Breathe only through your nose. Do not

breathe through your mouth.

14. Return to normal breathing but at a slower

rate. Repeat the exercise 3 to 4 times daily.

What to Expect During the Exercise

Your body should begin to warm about halfway

through the session. A deep feeling of relaxation

and even tranquility should come over you.

Your nasal passages should become moist in as

little as 1 to 3 minutes. If they don’t, the cause

could be dehydration. Stop and drink a glass or

2 of water before resuming the exercise.

Unlike the rest of your body becoming warm,

your nose will become cold. This is a good sign

that your nasal passages are receiving better

blood flow and your health is improving.

Expect your 2nd and 3rd control pauses to be

shorter than your first. This is due to the reduced

CO2 in your blood.

Either the 4th or 5th control pause should

naturally be longer than the first control pause.

This is a very good sign because it indicates that

your breathing center chemoreceptors have

reset to the correct setting.

14

The desired end result is to stop the exercise

shortly after your breathing center

chemoreceptors reset. Otherwise, fatigue will set

in, which will have a negative effect on your

exercises later in the day.

Severely sick people are encouraged to do the

exercises every 1 to 1 ½ hours, in addition to

constant breathing control. BUT, if you are

pregnant OR you have high blood pressure OR

you have panic attacks OR you have been

diagnosed with heart disease, do NOT do the

pauses!!

What Your Control Pause Tells You

From clinical trials, Russian doctors came to the

following conclusions based on the length of

patients’ control pauses. These are approximate

results and do not apply to everyone.

• 1 to 5 seconds - Severely sick and critically ill

patients, usually hospitalized.

• 5 to 10 seconds - Very sick patients, often

hospitalized.

• 10 to 20 seconds - Sick patients with

numerous complaints and, often, on daily

medication.

• 20 to 30 seconds - People with poor health,

but often without serious organic problems.

• 30 to 40 seconds - People with normal health,

according to official medical standards, while

some serious, often undetected health

problems are possible (gastrointestinal,

hormonal, and skin problems, caries, intestinal

parasites, etc.).

• 40 to 60 seconds - Good health.

• Over 60 seconds - Ideal health, when any

organic or other pathological health conditions

are virtually impossible.

Variations on the Basic Exercise

The basic technique is best categorized as a

light intensity session and is best suited to

beginners. Discomfort from limited air is minimal

but beginning sessions must be longer to

achieve proper results.

With training, practice, experience, and improved

health, many people will be able to shorten their

sessions by progressing to medium and high

intensity sessions. These are shorter in length

but produce the same results.

Medium sessions are done with a longer control

pause and shallower breathing that increases

the feeling of air denial. These sessions are

often reduced to about 20 minutes. You’ll know

that you have achieved this when your control

pause becomes longer than the first in a shorter

amount of time than it did using the light intensity

method.

Many people never achieve the high intensity

level simply because the desire for air becomes

too strong. People capable high intensity air

denial can reset their breathing center in as little

as 15 minutes.

Individuals should only use the medium and high

intensity methods when they are comfortable

doing so. Both during the session and

immediately following it. A good test of this is the

individual’s ability to control their breathing,

especially immediately following the session.

Shallow controlled breathing should easily be

obtained following the session. Mouth breathing,

deep breathing, or gasping for air strongly

indicates the person is not ready for the medium

or high intensity methods.

The medium and high intensity methods are

never recommended for seriously ill people.

The light, medium, and high intensity methods all

obtain the same result, to reset the breathing

center and increase CO2 in the blood system.

The only difference is the amount of time

required to achieve it.

There you have the basic Oxygen RemedyTM

Breathing Exercise. I truly expect you to start

feeling much better in a matter of days and to

regain your health within weeks. But it won't

happen if you aren't diligent about practicing the

exercises several times a day.

I know from my very advanced training that

practice is critical to achieving the full benefits of

breathing correctly. I want you to obtain

everything that I have through coaching and

interacting with like-minded people.

No more procrastinating. Your health is too

important.

Panic and anxiety attacks can be triggered by

many everyday events - such as stress, large

meals, lack of conscious controlled breathing, or

anything that causes hyperventilating.

With the onset of symptoms, here are the

emergency steps you can take:

1. Relax your muscles and find a place to get

comfortable. The relaxation should trigger a

natural exhale.

2. At the end of the exhalation, pinch your nose

and hold your breath as long as you

comfortably can. This should be long enough

for you to begin getting hungry for air but not

so long that you think you might faint.

3. At the end of the breath holding, take in an

exceptionally small breath of air. Stay

relaxed, especially in the upper body area of

chest, diaphragm, shoulders, neck, and jaw.

4. Breathe slow and shallow for about 2

minutes.

5. Again, exhale, pinch your nose, and hold

your breath as long as you can.

6. One more time, take a shallow breath and

breathe slow and shallow for about 2

minutes.

7. Finally, exhale and hold your breath one last

time.

8. Return to your normal breathing but be

conscious of it. Try to breathe slower and

shallower than you did before you started

reading this book.

9. Your symptoms should diminish.

10. If your symptoms don’t diminish, repeat steps

1 to 7 again.

Dr. Buteyko’s research found that normally his

patients’ symptoms were eliminated in 1 to 5

minutes using this method.

You now have the information you need to

begin feeling much better in as little as 3

minutes.

By practicing these exercises on a regular basis

for a couple of weeks, your normal breathing

pattern will become a healthy breathing pattern.

You can always return to these exercises if your

breathing gets out of whack again. But once your

normal breathing becomes proper breathing,

many health symptoms will be gone for good.

You’ll soon have much more vigor and much

more sex… along with improved physical and

mental health, well into a very old age.

I have a lot more information about proper

breathing techniques. Drop me a note and I’ll

share more with you

Always talk to your doctor before changing your

lifestyle, diet, exercise, sexual, and medication

habits.

• By doing breathing exercises for a few minutes each day, your body adjusts how much you need to breathe.

• It’s even better when you do this “breathe less” exercise while you’re walking.

• Other techniques with a very long history of naturally helping people with breathing include Transcendental and Yoga meditation and exercises.

• Healthy breathing enhances your basal metabolic rate (BMR). BMR - even at rest, the body needs energy to keep all systems functioning correctly (breathing, heart, growing and repairing cells, and adjusting hormone levels).

• There are just 2 steps to becoming a nose breather - awareness and sleeping with your mouth closed.

• Don’t sleep with a blanket over your head.
