    What you eat affects how you breathe & how you breathe affects what you eat!

    What you eat affects how you breathe & how you breathe affects what you eat!

    This episode explains the remarkable relationship between our eating habits and our breathing quality. It is based on research of over two hundred and fifty patients over the past three years. The good news is that as you improve either your breathing or your diet, your eating choices or your quality of breathing will also improve. To learn more about diet check out my podcast “The World’s Finest Diet”.

    Stopping Buteyko Exercises & Taping

    Stopping Buteyko Exercises & Taping

    Hi, welcome to episode thirteen of Better Breathing Means Better Health. I hope by now you are really making progress and feeling the benefits of better breathing. One of the great attractions of the Buteyko Method breath training is that people don’t need to carry on doing exercises indefinitely, but once their carbon dioxide receptors have been re-set and they are achieving good control pauses of 35 to 45 seconds all the time, then they can begin to reduce their exercises and eventually stop them altogether.

    So at some time in the future, you will have established a new habit of breathing normally, you will have a morning control pause of over thirty-five and will often achieve control pauses of over forty. You will have achieved ideal breathing when your control pause is between forty-five and sixty seconds.

    Episode # 10 Sealing the Leaks & Talking Like The Queen

    Hi, welcome to episode ten of Better Breathing Means Better Health entitled Sealing the leaks and Talking Like The Queen.
    As you will now know, our breathing is controlled automatically by the level of carbon dioxide in our body. It is a good image to hold in one's mind that our lungs are not just the means to get oxygen for our body but act as reservoirs or tanks of carbon dioxide that need to be kept at just the right level.
    Maintaining this image of the lungs as reservoirs or tanks of Carbon Dioxide that help maintain the normal 6% CO2 in our body, we can think of activities that may lead to “leaks” from the tanks.
