For some, breathing
development is of the utmost importance, right now. For
others it is an indispensable aid to
superior health, peak performance, and life extension.
Consider this:
- Science has proven that
cancer is anaerobic - it does not survive in high
levels of oxygen.
- Shortness of breath and
heart disease are directly linked - the heart goes
into spasm when it is deprived of
oxygen.
- Studies have shown that
there is a high
correlation between
high blood
pressure and poor breathing.
- Most emotional issues,
including anxiety and
depression, result from the
nervous system being out of balance. Breathing drives
the nervous system.
- Optimal Breathing helps
to promote weight loss.
Oxygen burns fat and calories.
- Breathing well is the
key to
sleeping well and waking up
feeling rested.
- Breathing provides 99%
of your
energy. Without energy,
nothing works.
-
Virtually every health condition and human activity is
improved with Optimal Breathing.
Clinical studies
prove that oxygen, wellness, and life-span are totally
dependent on proper breathing. Lung volume is a
primary marker for
how long you will live.
Breathing supplies over 99% of
your entire oxygen and energy supply. Poor breathing causes
or worsens chronic maladies such as asthma, allergies,
anxiety, fatigue, depression, headaches, heart conditions,
high blood pressure, sleep loss, obesity, harmful stress,
poor mental clarity plus hundreds of other lesser known but
equally harmful conditions. ALL diseases are caused or
worsened by poor breathing.
The average person reaches peak
respiratory function and lung capacity in their mid 20's.
Then they begin to lose respiratory capacity: between 10%
and 27% for every decade of life! So, unless you are
doing something to maintain or improve your breathing
capacity, it will decline, and with it, your general health,
your life expectancy, and for that matter, your spirit as
well.
Optimal breathing gets you more
vitality and better quality of life. We also address food,
exercise, internal cleansing, attitude, and environment but
breathing is for many the most important part of getting and
staying healthy. Begin with breathing. Better breathing is
possible for anyone. Develop your breathing now.
Breathing fundamentals are
critical.
Just because one particular breathing exercise or
development technique feels good does not mean it is the
best choice. Many feel good at the outset of a certain
exercise but that is largely because so many breathe so
poorly that any progress feels significant, and it may well
be. But each technique or exercise must be based in solid
breathing fundamentals otherwise they can work against each
other and cause future breathing development problems. Like
a rocket ship even slightly off course, as the days and
weeks pass, you will travel further and further away from
your goal of a long, healthy, vibrant life. Knowing
the fundamentals helps you stay on course. Here is an
example of being way off course -
Superman Syndrome. Here is another.

posture. - Margaret A., massage therapist |
Hi Mike,
I’ve been searching for information on better breathing for a long-time
including taking yoga classes for many years, reading books on pranayama and breathing workshops. I’ve gotten your program and
have been going through it recently and it is the best I’ve ever seen.
I was feeling exhausted this morning and no amount of rest helped.
I did some of your breathing exercises and felt energized.
I’ve been a chronic poor breather my whole life. One item that
contributed was allergies, I was always so stuffed up that I couldn’t
breathe. Doing liver and
gallbladder cleanses cleared this up remarkably and I am now able to
breathe normally.
I believe that breathing is a real key for me and that you have put
together a very effective program. For example, now when I do yoga
classes, breathing in the postures is not such a mystery as before.
I was doing some Qi Gong exercises this morning and it felt like it was
really working. I believe that what you teach are the fundamentals
of breathing that are both powerful in themselves and can make other
breathing practices more effective.
I’d like to learn more about Optimal Breathing. I live in the L.A.
area and was wondering if you are ever going to be in the area, or have
some breathing coaches here? Am also interested in attending some
of your training sessions. I would be appreciative if you could
send me
some information.
Thx, Dave
What inspired you to
recommend this site?
From Mano: The information is very informative that
strikes a caution regarding bad breathing. It reminds one of the basic
rule, "prevention is better than cure".
From Justin S: I am
inspired by new ideas and new concepts - I believe that breathing right
is one of the most important things in staying healthy - your web site is
filled with important and logical information...... it makes perfect
sense on what your saying about breathing properly-a lot of people
(including myself) are starting to look for answers in a non traditional
way. I always believe that the best way is the simplest, straightforward
approach, the way that makes the most sense - just breathing right.
