OK BOOK

Reviewer: SLEEPY IN AZ, USA
This book is ok. I believe that many people hyperventilate and the book could be of some help to these people. It has some good ideas that may be useful to some people. His references are challenged by other authorities. There is too much repitition in the book.

I have had asthma all of my life. I am controlling it with an antihistamine and an inhalers for my lungs and nose. I have read the book Asthma-Free Naturally and am praticing the exercises. The ones I have tried appear to be working, especially the one to open the nasal airway making it easier to breath thru the nose. I have not been doing them long enough to notice any great effect on my asthma I highly recommend the book for children. As an orthodontist I have found that maloccusion (crooked teeth) is primarily due to poor oral posture. Allergies can promote mouth breathing and an open mouth posture at rest which results an adverse growth pattern of the face and crooked teeth. The exercises to promote breathing thru the nose to maintain a closed mouth posture may help promote a good facial appearance and prevent crooked teeth.

My wife and two of my five kids have had bouts with asthma, typically allergy or exercise induced.
I found this book very helpful and insightful. Most treatments for asthma treat the symptoms, not the cause. This book gets at the cause. We have been impressed with the simplicity of this. Some of the suggestions have immediate benefit. The drawback is that to fully do this program, you will need a willingness to devote several minutes a day for several weeks. But if you compare that to a life of dependence on medicinal approaches, it is a small price to pay.
At minimum, it's worth a try and may be life changing if you are an asthma sufferer.

Complicated writing and difficult instructions to follow with no results realized from all the effort.

Although counter intuitive, that reducing your tidal breath will help increase your blood oxygen levels, it is brilliant in how it does work. I participated in one of Patrick McKeown's seminars, and is has changed my life and also of all my friends that also attended. By following his specific suggestions, my asthma is vastly improved and I have been able to decrease the medicines to low maintenance levels and more importantly my energy is also coming back.
There is so much emphasis on doing deep large breath breathing these days, and that is the WORST thing you can do if you have any respiratory issues. By retraining and watching your breath on an ongoing basis, and only breathing though your nose even when exercising, you will notice the difference in just two weeks and continue to improve as long as you continue the work. Patrick also suggests using paper tape to keep your mouth closed and prevent from over breathing while you are asleep and results in much more restful sleep and waking up alert, strange as it sounds it works also. The program is self reinforcing as you feel better able to breathe and less drug dependent.... compared to becoming more drug dependent and less functional over time as the asthma process progresses.
He teaches you how to get into an exercise program and to build your breath and stamina slowly and safely. Which exercise is the most helpful to asthmatics and why. He teaches a simple measurement of your breath capacity, your CP, and gives you an easy to determine marker to monitor self progress over the weeks and months.
Read the book, check out his websites, watch the You Tube videos, and go to a seminar or find practitioner in your area if possible, but learn this technique!
