Hey there,
I"m considering your optimal Breathing Self Mastery Kit. Curious to know...is this just a remarketed set of buteyko and/or pranayma exercises, or no?

Thank you,
Jake.

great :) Curious to hear the facts

Buteyko is about 10% of optimal breathing.

Ok. It's discouraging, as I have just gotten into buteyko. And obviously, the Wim Hof Method is off the table. 
is the kit influenced by Pranayama?

Pranayama? a bit. Mostly natural breathing.

Michael Grant White

Pranayama is mostly about spirituality and altered states. Breathing is about breathing. Simple and replicatable.

For sure. That makes sense. I mean, for example...the breath of fire, I have practiced it before and while I noticed some benefits, it made me exhausted (I have fatigue issues). Would this help me with fatigue?

For sure it will help with fatigue. I am the only one owning Optimal breathing.com . 85,000 have taken our tests and given us insights no one else has.

That's the one I was looking at. Last question, and then I"ll bookmark this and look at my funds this coming paycheck...are there at least advantages to breath holds after exhalations?

I see you have an exercise like that in the article you linked.

Michael Grant White
8:20 PM

"'are there at least advantages to breath holds after exhalations?"' it greatly depends. I use one as a test for CO2 tolerance. See also https://Optimalbreathing.com/blogs/breathing-problems-and-dysfunction/breath-holding and as well use "breath holding" in our seach engine.

I like your questions.

Jake
8:23 PM

well, shoot. Everything I've been thinking is wrong. Of course. :) Thanks for the article. 

I just notice with breath holds after exhales, or building CO2 levels, the trembling symptom of my anxiety nearly disappears...but I bet I'd get that same effect if I properly breathe. It must mean I'm not breathing out deep enough naturally or something.

It looks like this program is real thorough, for sure.

oh:

"My Optimal Breathing kit has been integrated into the Doctorate program for Advanced Athletic Training (DAT) at the University of 'Idaho. "

That's cool.

Yep. Sports induced asthma is almost epidemic. Gasping and breath heaving creates tension. Tension that restricts breathing mechanics causing shortness of breath

Jake
8:25 PM

I see. Yeah, I can't work out anymore. I definitely think it's connected with my breathing. I have a history of asthma as well.

Michael Grant White
8:26 PM

Bingo.

Jake
8:26 PM

Does the program talk about exercising and breathing the right way/how much to push?

Michael Grant White
8:28 PM

Of course. It is about healthy breathing and its various expressions and without getting stuck in any one form.

Jake
8:29 PM

Cool. I have it bookmarked. Next paycheck comes in a week. I just want my anxiety symptoms to be lessened. Trembling is just from adrenaline, right? Blah. What an annoying thing. 

Any who, thanks for the help

Shoot. One more question, Mike. haha...Let me guess...do you abhor the Wim Hof method?

Michael Grant White
8:35 PM

No. He is a zealot and good for some but i am afraid he will overdo things that do not withstand the test of time.

Michael Grant White
8:36 PM

and not withstand the test of time.

Jake
8:36 PM

Rational response. This makes sense.

Jake
8:37 PM

I'm glad to have found you. It seems like no matter which method I have been trying, something is always out of wack either physically or cognitively. I'm sure you hear that a lot from people. 

Goodnight!
