- He has been giving seminars and trainings since 2002 and wrote several books about it: breathing. Or, in other words: closing your mouth. In this episode, we welcome international practitioner, author and breathing expert Patrick McKeown to our studio!
Ever since Patrick was a child he struggled with asthma. Due to the lack of adequate sleep he couldn’t focus or concentrate and was not able to reach his full potential as a teenager. It all changed when he discovered a technique that helped him breathe differently.
Patrick speaks about his mission to empower people to take back control of their lives, simply by using his breathing techniques that have proven to improve body oxygenation.
The exercise seems simple: just breath through your nose. But are you still capable of keeping your mouth closed during an intense workout? How does this technique affects our training? And what impact does it have on child development?
Curious to know everything about the optimization of your everyday breathing? You will find it here!
We cover the following topics:
-Is it hard to correct methods that have been thought for years?
-How should we be breathing?
-And what about during working out?
-How should we start our day?
-Wim Hoff technique vs Oxygen Advantage
-Is the Wim Hoff technique beneficial?
-Hyperventilation and a higher breath hold
-Example of bad breathing
-What happens when you breathe through your nose during physical exercise?
-What is meant by ventilation?
-Why is my body making me ventilate more when I’m pushing my body?
-Reaching the lower regions of your lungs by breathing through your nose
-Breathing exercise
-Stress then vs now
-How to train your children to deal with stress
-Mouth taping for kids - breathing through the mouth vs through the nose
-Do you think we lost the right way of breathing along the way?
-Breastfeeding
-The food we are eating
-What about breathing out through your mouth?
-What is VO2 max?
-The importance of sleep and recovery

I shaved my moustache so tape would stick. I am 74 with asthma and a couple of stents and have been tapping my mouth for 7days and get up more refreshed. Good so far.
i just can tell how patric saved my life i was suffering from depression from my childhood its like a turning point for me ❤️❤️❤️❤️, i dont have words
how brother. tell me

He’s brilliant...really helping me with COPD. I do this everyday.
I can go for walks now without using my inhaler and I’m sleeping through the night.
Thank you 🙏
Joy Davies Your comment has cheered me up. I have been diagnosed with emphysema after suffering from Covid in March. Its been very scary when I suffer shortness of breath and the more I panic to catch my breath the more I feel like I am suffocating. I use Anoro Ellipta every morning and I have a blue inhaler. Can you give me an update Joy ...
I used to have asthma and lots of trouble breathing since youth, since I discovered Patrick and the buteyko breathing my life changed, my asthma stopped and I have increased my performance no longer afraid to be out of breath. I love Patrick and what he does for all of us.... highly recommend it
@@siblantelifeenhanced6643 i dont think it is a good idea for me. Having asthma is completely different to emphysema. Good luck to you, though
@@skygazer6898 not true this is great for asthma
Asthma can become COPD.
I’m still doing breathing exercises every day.
Also exercise helps …I go to the gym now twice a week…
Mainly do rowing and cycle. It’s tough but always feel better afterwards.
Also changed my diet…mainly fruits and veggies. No meat or dairy. Make sure I get my B12 checked regular because if it’s low it can affect breathing.
I do the five second nose holds before I go to sleep it helps me get through the night without using my ventolin inhaler.
This is probably the best video I've seen. This is so valuable!
Patric has saved so many people what a amazing human being a true gift to the world.
Thoroughly enjoyable, authentic and erudite.
He is a gifted speaker with that mystical Irish wisdom.

@@carlosreveles7311Pop I can send it h hi I up too hu Yi 😅 it is
Patrick, you are wonderful. Thank you for this!
Wow, this is absolutely incredible information. Patrick is brilliant!! So grateful!!🙏🏻❤️ Thank you deeply!
Patrick changed my life 10 years ago am now 51 and living my best life also James Nestor and Max Strom. Lost my Dad as well so important breathing correctly.
I am a compulsive breath holder so I know I have breathing issues. I have listened to different people who are teaching breathing and so far I really like this guy the most. And I’m sure to no surprise I suffer from low back pain. And he talked about the work of Weston A. Price - an amazing and much too ignored book.
This guy just made my Wim Hof Method even better. I think Wim Hof is on point as he always says do not force. These two should sit down and chat, they could bounce ideas off each other and change the world even better
That method is different from what this guy does.
I had for over 40 years asthma like symptoms. No more since taping mouth shut and focusing during the rest of the day and exercise on keeping my mouth shut. If I have the inkling of an air spasm, I breathe in and out and hold my breath for like 7 seconds and after that it's smooth sailings again. Before, I would go from bad to worse.
Fantastic conversation: connecting the complex elements of our correct healthy functionality of breathing chemistry, mechanics of it, with the design as a perfect engine with perfect interconnections between nervous, respiratory, digestion systems, embraced in the biochemistry. Thank you Patrick.
Amazing! Love you Patrick!!

Wow, what a great podcast! Being a person practicing Vipassana I especially like Patrick mentioning concentration and emotional state as a key points to happy living. Not many Western researchers mention it.
Sports, yes, but music also definitely teaches breathing, self-control, teamwork, responsibility, social empathy, patience, perseverance, resilience and many other virtues. :-) Great topic, thank you very much for doing this!
God bless you Patrick for the invaluable information. You are indeed an international treasure. Thank you for all you do.....and the hosts that had him on as well. 😇
pharmaceutical companys hate him
Thank you Patrick ,very important explainations& informations.
Thank you so much. Brilliant instruction, waiting for the post that is delivering my Oxygen Advantage book. Great podcast, thanks guys. From nz
Hi,
How are you finding the book? I love his podcasts, so his book must be amazing! Kiwi living in Australia
@@waynerichardson1051Many books like these cover exactly the same material that is talked about in podcasts, just in a longer and more structured format.
So it’ll be more of what you love!
Great interview ! Bravo to all of you !
love this
First time hearing about him and am exciting to try his exercises compared to the ones on wim Hoff ones
How was your experience so far in comparing Patrick’s and Hof’s breathing techniques? I would love to know as I have been doing Wim Hof
@@HealthTalk180 Dr .Buteyko discovered this year's ago, if your interested I'd research him.. There are a few clips of him and his patient's, he cured many people and supposedly was murdered. Good luck to you
I reckon both are great., one for everyday and the other for disease prevention
Wim Hof is fine if you are thoroughly healthy. But the hypoxia and hyperventilation in his method wreck havoc with the electrical heart signals. So if you have Afib or any other problem with your heart this method has a pernicious impact on your health.
N ose Breathing really brings you into the Now and be fully aware.
I suffer from a overactive mind, agitated mind, over excited mind. I've had terrible insomnia for 4 years and another 4 years off and on insomnia. Even though I exercise and eat healthy
The best content online.
Dank je wel!!
Thank you so much. Would love to do a live seminar
Thanks a lot for these English interviews
Wonderful thank you so much
Great interview. Patrick mentions the pulse oximeters but did you know that pulse oximeters may underestimate blood oxygen levels in individuals with darker skin? There's research to understand the causes and implications of this. Hopefully the po's will be adapted once they figure that out!
Fantastic podcast 👍
thank you....!
Optimize everyday breathing is similar to Live at altitude, train at sea level, that Olympic athletes do. You can acclimate to higher Co2 with simple breath holds throughout the day, like living at a higher altitude for short moments that add up to body adaptations over time.
His work also cured my tinnitus on accident
which breathing excercises helped with the tinnitus?
@@lionhearted3441 Just suuuupppeeerrr light breathing. To the point where you think you’re gonna pass out. REALLY building up that CO2 in the blood. That really dilates the blood vessels.
@@lionhearted3441 Literally breathe like you’re trying to not breathe in a really stinky fart.
@@zacharyalexander1 are you counting till a specific number with the inhale and exhale?
@@zacharyalexander1 thanks for the tips bro, will begin to use them! 🙏🏻
Thanks so much for this beauty
Thank you
"You should never hear somebody breed in a yoga studio." Agreed!
Omg lmao 😂
😂
Also: breeding through your mouth has got to be rather painful, np?
😂
Beautiful talk
We have an automatic baseline breathing pattern that the autonomic system controls. So anything we do to change that is an intervention. I agree, that you just don't leap off the cliff and dive into Wim Hof or whatever without carefully studying the process beforehand.
i'm just curious 👀 apart from when you are desperate for air or talking, is there a benefit at all to mouth breathing? in yoga they say breathe out through the mouth. Would it be better to breathe out through the nose 👃?
What a beautiful Huichol yarn painting in the wall
45 mins for breathing exercise
I mean, I breathe through my mouth when my nose is stuffed, which is about half the time. I also have a curved septum, and I go back and forth on getting it surgically repaired because I don't want to bother with recovery if I'm not 100% it will make a worthwhile positive impact on my life. Should I bother?
My wife had asthma when she was a child. At school there was a teacher who taped up mouths if they talked in class. It petrified her, how about a stretch band in a loop around the head instead ?
I've been sleeping with tape on my mouth for well over a year now, I do not notice waking up with more energy, I still do not like getting out of bed but I don't have dry mouth and I "may" have more energy during the day though.
Boss! So the experiment continues ;)
I had exercised induced hyperventilating.
So no taping kids mouths at night with the 3M Micropore tape? I’m a bit confused on this point. I now tape my 10 y’o at night and he’s sleeping so well now
i wonder using a cpap machine if it would negatively effect your breathing?
If you have had teeth extracted because the mouth was too small for all those teeth, what can you do now to increase the size of your mouth, and hence, the airways?
He would be a great salesman.
What about people diagnosed with sleep apnea on cpap or bipap ?
Wow
Is bag breathing beneficial ?
I listened to this, took one breath through my nose, and then went about my day and i dont know if i took another nose breath again
41:18 good exercise
An important word about micropore tape from companies like 3M: the chemicals making up the glue have not been tested properly to assure safety when covering the highly absorptive surface of the lips.
Below is a detailed essay that delves into the main topics discussed in the podcast featuring Patrick McKeown, an expert on breathing techniques.
### Introduction
Breathing is an involuntary action that sustains life, yet most people rarely consider the quality of their breathing. Patrick McKeown, a leading authority on breathing and its impact on health, challenges conventional wisdom on this subject. In a podcast, he discusses various aspects of breathing, sleep, attention span, and overall well-being. This essay aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these topics based on McKeown's insights.
---
### The Importance of Nose Breathing
One of the most striking points McKeown makes is the significance of nose breathing over mouth breathing. He argues that nose breathing is not just about getting air into the lungs; it's about doing so in a way that maximizes energy and overall health. According to McKeown, nose breathing filters and humidifies the air, which is beneficial for lung function. It also helps in regulating the volume of air intake, ensuring that it aligns with the body's actual oxygen needs. Mouth breathing, on the other hand, can lead to over-breathing, which paradoxically reduces the amount of oxygen that is delivered to cells.
---
### Debunking Breathing Myths
McKeown takes issue with the widespread but incorrect belief that taking bigger breaths leads to increased oxygen uptake. He explains that this misconception likely stems from a misunderstanding of the role of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the body. Contrary to popular belief, CO2 is not merely a waste product; it serves as a catalyst for the release of oxygen from red blood cells to body tissues. Over-breathing or hyperventilating can actually reduce levels of CO2, leading to less efficient oxygen delivery.
---
### Sleep and Its Connection to Mental Health
The podcast also delves into the critical relationship between sleep quality and mental health. McKeown discusses how poor sleep can exacerbate conditions like depression, anxiety, and stress. He suggests that one of the most straightforward ways to improve sleep quality is to tape the mouth shut at night, forcing nose breathing. This practice, he claims, leads to a more refreshing sleep experience, thereby improving mental health.
---
### The Dangers of Sleeping Positions
McKeown warns against sleeping on one's back, as it increases the risk of obstructive sleep apnea. This condition, characterized by interrupted breathing during sleep, has been linked to various health issues, including high blood pressure and cardiovascular problems. He recommends sleeping on the side as a preventive measure.
---
### Modern Distractions and Attention Span
The podcast touches on the impact of modern technology on attention span. McKeown cites studies showing a significant drop in attention span over the years, attributing it to the constant distractions provided by smartphones and other devices. This decline in attention span has a cascading effect on mental health, contributing to increased levels of stress and anxiety.
---
### Breathing and Athletic Performance
McKeown also discusses his work with athletes, emphasizing that improper breathing techniques can severely limit performance. Athletes who engage in shallow, rapid breathing are more likely to experience muscle fatigue and reduced stamina. By correcting their breathing patterns, they can significantly improve their performance.
---
### Practical Breathing Exercises
Towards the end of the podcast, McKeown offers some practical exercises to improve breathing and, by extension, overall well-being. One such exercise involves holding one's breath while walking and then jogging. This exercise aims to increase CO2 levels temporarily, improving oxygen delivery to cells.
---
### Conclusion
Patrick McKeown's insights into breathing, sleep, and overall well-being challenge conventional wisdom and offer a new perspective on health. By understanding the science behind breathing and making simple changes in our habits, we can dramatically improve our quality of life.
Even with taping and cpap nightly use, I still wake up tired.
Thanks for the video. What about people with sickle cell trait or anaemia?
Have you tried the breathing exercise? Did it work for you?
Hi, I know this is a late reply, but I have had serious iron deficiency anaemia due to bad haemorrhaging for six weeks - my haemoglobin count (should be at least 12) was down to below 6 - and the doctor wanted me to have a blood transfusion. Instead, once the bleeding stopped, I focused on breath control, as taught by Patrick, as well as careful nutrition, and iron tablets, and have recovered remarkably fast. I’m convinced that the breathing exercises helped my body to produce more red blood cells.
@@amandaboddice505 that's wonderful. I hope things have continued well. :)
what about yawning?
Yawning is discouraged. If you feel the need to yawn then swallow straight away. If you do yawn then breathe out, hold your breath for 5 to 10 seconds, and then after your first breath in normalise breathing as soon as possible.
Is it too late for an older man in his seventies to use these breathing techniques in order to widen and enlarge the airways?
See on youtube "Strelnikova exercise to reduce asthma attacks."
I've got crooked teats
👌🏼🤚🏼🗝
I have read that a method for reducing mental chatter is to put the tounge on the roof of the mouth.
That’s really where it needs to stay
This is all ready explained in the sience of yoga!! Just look for a good yoga teacher!! But thanks for the revuw🙏🏽🕉☯️
Is there anything we don't have to optimize? Blinking?
Very important as well for seeing well without glasses!
I have narrow nostrils since birth and makes my breathing difficult. I breathe through my mouth most of the night. It cant be fixed by surgery. So i guess i'm doomed.

1:45:33 "Do you think for example for grappling sports like Brazilian jiu-jitsu this nasal breeding helps as well during sparring..." YES! THE GRACIE FAMILY czcams.com/video/F_7huOfVMP0/video.html czcams.com/video/vnhT0T6Nhy4/video.html mind you in these videos it would seem there are doing the opposite of what McKeown is recommending, they're doing diaphragm work but very shallow breathing with a lot of exhaling from the mouth
Great I am gonna check it out :)
I still have a problem with nasal breeding. Why not do it the traditional way??
Patrick… your voice just put my wife (who was driving the car) to sleep. I splashed cold water on her. Lol.
You seem to be saying that cyclists by definition, cannot be diaphragmatic breathers, unless they sit upright.
My lungs were damaged by breathing in mold from an old air conditioning system inside a cold box where I worked with milk I got asthma I was waking up choking suffocating my job didn't tell me not to work in their the doctor just handed me medication to help me breathe didn't ask me where I was working and now I'm dealing with damage longs I'm looking into all these websites that can teach me how to cure this problem how to live with damage lungs and I could tell you on the breathing test after listening to keep my mouth closed when I breathe my breathing oxygen went up from 88 to 91 just from closing my mouth 6 minute walk that a lung specialist will have you do to see if you need oxygen supplemental
Can someone tell me where he explains the breathing?? I don't have an hour to watch a video
Distracted?
On TED Talk
It's well spent time for me. Changed my life.
Discipline rewards those who do what they think they don't have time for.
maybe a chin strap will help you keep from mouth breathing while sleeping?
Beluisterd op afspeelsnelheid 0,5. Mijn Engels is uitstekend maar ik kan deze man niet volgen. Het verhaal springt doorlopend van de hak op de tak. Ik zie er geen opbouw in, voor- noch achterkant. Voor mij niet te volgen. Jammer, want het onderwerp vind ik interessant
We dont consciously think, thoughts or images just appear in the awareness which is who you truly are. Look up Eckhart Tolle.
True!

Your mind is sabotaging your breathing efforts. Wow.
Lol every time I hear him talk about nasal breathing, he breaths through his mouth 🤦🏻♂️
He’s talking
@@patriciagriffin1505 yes I agree, but in his recent video about covid recovery and breathing he said there is no reason to breath through your mouth whatsoever….
You do not give the actual breathing to be done. Why don’t you give a practical demonstration before going into all this detail! Very confusing. You must give demonstrations! Too much talking and none the wiser of how exactly you want us to breathe!
N W Lama hi, try watching his many other videos
He said it many times...breathe through the nose!
Lynn Marie Lumiere to say breathe through the nose is not enough! We all breathe through the nose all the time. He needs to demonstrate the correct way as he sees it. The whole of his belief is based on breathing correctly, so it stands to reason he MUST get his message of breathing properly across to all his followers!
First you see the vedeo fully and then complain
