Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Sanskrit text, 15 century. The Buteyko breathing technique has the most effective system of lifestyle chang es for maximum body-oxygen levels 24/7. Learn these how-to-instructions here. Th ey can be APPLIED, for fast health restoration, even though you use Oxygen Remed y, the Frolov breathing device, Samozdrav, Amazing DIY breathing device, Breaths lim, PowerLung, Resperate, PowerBreathe, Expand-A-Lung, Pursed Lip Breathing, yo ga Pranayama, and any other device or breathing technique. Module 0. What is this: "Learning the Buteyko method by modules"? Q: What is it: learning the Buteyko breathing method by modules, and how to lear n them? A: To learn the Buteyko method means to normalize (or improve) a personal breath ing pattern 24/7. Hence, just learning or practicing Buteyko breathing exercises is not sufficient. You should change your unconscious breath pattern. Here is a typical example from real life. If a person usually has a dry mouth every morni ng due to mouth breathing at night, he will never restore his health and his bod y-oxygen content will remain low. If someone else sleeps every night on her back , her disease symptoms and usual breathing pattern will likely be almost the sam e even after practicing the best breathing exercises. Hence, it is important to learn the key healthy lifestyle factors of the Buteyko method and follow suggest ed Buteyko instructions. Before you start any breath WORK, you should have a ver y clear understanding where to go and how to achieve your goals. Hence, based on hundreds (!) of medical studies provided here and for the sake of Buteyko self help, you should learn: - what is the main purpose of breathing retraining - why overbreathing (or deep unconscious breathing pattern) reduces cell oxygen content - what are the normal breathing pattern and ideal breathing pattern - how should we breathe for maximum cell oxygen content - how to measure one's body-oxygen level using the Control Pause test - what are the carbon dioxide uses in the human body, etc. - which lifestyle factors make breathing heavier (deeper and/or faster) - which lifestyle factors make breathing lighter (more shallow and slower) These are the reasons why there are so many web pages on this website. They are created for you! Q: Which modules are for me? A: A Buteyko student does not need to know all details and peculiarities of the
method to restore their own health. The student can select, with my help, their main relevant modules in relation to lifestyle factors and breathing exercises. This will lead to a more focused approach and faster learning. Hence, it makes s ense to create such a selective form of learning based on clear Buteyko method i nstructions related to how to do this Buteyko self-help WORK. Normalization of breathing and the consequent disappearance of asthma, heart dis ease, diabetes, cancer, and many other conditions are serious and fundamental pe rsonal projects.

Level 1 goals: The student is able to eliminate the main symptoms of own health problems (e.g., asthma, heart disease, epilepsy, sinusitis, eczema, insomnia, co nstipation, etc.) using the Emergency Procedure so that the Emergency Procedure can substitute the use of medication or significantly reduce the dosage (e.g., t wice). Such students have low morning CPs (usually about 5-15 s ), while elimina tion or reduction in medication and survival are their main practical results. O nly about 10% of learners or less are satisfied with this level. (Most people pr oceed to the next level.) It takes from about 1 hour to about 1-2 days to learn it. Module 1. Crucial preliminary Buteyko instructions and goals Imagine about 200 medical professionals who have taught some health therapy to o ver 200,000 patients during several decades. Obviously, Russian DOCTORS accumula ted huge clinical experience in relation to teaching the Buteyko method, chances of success of their patients, final outcomes, etc. They also found that there a re preliminary conditions, of social and psychological nature, which are linked to the final results of a typical Buteyko student. Your chances of later success depend on: 1-A. Voluntary hyperventilation or deep breathing test 1-B. Theoretical studies (at least 2 hours) 1-C. Your interactions with surrounding people
"Such patients who have undergone deep breathing tests and assimilated the theor y with an excellent mark are allowed to proceed with the second stage of trainin g. Those who have not understood the theory will continue the studies..." Buteyk o KP, The method of volitional elimination of deep breathing [Translation of the Small Buteyko MANUAL], Voskresensk, 1994. The following steps are: 1-D. Select your goals and own pace for learning 1-E. Your rate of progress (uncontrollable and controllable factors) Module 2. Learn Buteyko: How to measure the CP (Control Pause) Warning signWarning. Most people do not have any problems with measuring the CP. However, some people with heart disease, panic attacks, migraine headaches, and few other, exceptionally rare conditions, may experience unpleasant symptoms, w hich can appear soon after measuring the CP (in 1-5 minutes). If this happens, d o not measure your CP for a while. Later, when your breathing will be about 2-3 times lighter and the CP 2-3 times longer, these unpleasant symptoms after the C P test will not appear. Your initial breathing PROGRAM should focus on the reduc tion of your pulse (or heart rate). For over 95% of people, it is safe to measure their CP many times per day and ob serve the effects of stress, meals, exercise, posture, thermoregulation, and man y other life-style factors on their CP, breathing, and health. You can easily me asure your body-oxygen level using the stress-free breath-holding time test (thi s web page is from the Homepage section; with Google Video clip). Module 3. Earthing - How to ground yourself The very first and easiest step to increase your (low) CP is to get free electro ns from Earth due to grounding yourself. Electrons are Nature's free antioxidant s. You can find more INFORMATIONabout the health benefits and reasons behind ele ctrical grounding here: Earthing. This is an exceptionally important step to red uce inflammation and normalize sleep, nerve and muscle function, as well as doze ns of other fundamental physiological processes. For practical actions and steps, click here: How to ground yourself. Module 4. Learn the Emergency Procedure "Practically, a human can change own breathing using will power and experience h ow the disease relates to breathing. Reduced breathing can alleviate, in 1-5 min utes, all the symptoms we were talking about: bronchial spasms (attacks of asthm a or bronchitis), blocked nose (to unblock the nose), eliminate spasms of brain vessels - migraine or headache, spasms of heart vessels, spasms of blood vessels of arms and feet (endarteritis), ulcer pains (spasms of vessels in the stomach) , spasms of bile ducts (cholecystitis), to prevent an epilepsy attack during fros t to warm up the arms or the nose is simple decrease breathing. Blood vessels di late and you are warmed up! You are frightened, excited, you have a nervous shiv er slow down the breathing and in 1-2 minutes you will get peace. Using these me chanisms you can control your own body!

Module 5. Measure and record your MCP (morning CP) every day Each morning, as soon as the student wakes up and is still in bed, he or she sho uld measure the morning CP, if there are no contraindications. This should be do ne immediately after you OPEN your eyes. Why? Just 5-10 minutes later your breat hing parameters can be different and the crucial information about your breathin g during the last hours of sleep can be lost. If you have contraindications, mea sure your heart rate during 1 minute and record it in your daily log. Your changes in morning-CP numbers will be used later for finding the causes of the problem with morning hyperventilation. How and why your morning CP is crucial for your health restoration Optional link: Morning hyperventilation* (with Google Video clip) from the Homep age. Follow this link, especially if your CP drops during the night. Module 6. Prevent sleeping on your back and best sleeping positions Q: Do I need this module? A: If you find yourself sleeping on your back at least during 2 nights in a week time, yes, you need this module. When your morning CP is 25 s or more, you do not need any steps in this directio n since this problem will disappear naturally.

Maintain nasal breathing 24/7 Q: Do I need this module? A: If you know that you sometimes breathe through your mouth, yes, you need this module. If you ask any of your friends, relatives or co-workers, and they tell you that you sometimes breathe through your mouth or have your mouth OPEN, yes, you need this module. If you wake up in the morning with dry mouth at least 2 times per week, yes, you need this module. When your CP is 25 s or more 24/7, you do not need any steps in this direction s ince this problem will disappear naturally. MANUAL (Instructional Guide) "How to stop mouth breathing" with free PDF file to download. For more ideas, visit Buteyko mouth-taping technique and Stop mouth b reathing treatment. Level 2 "Existence" Level 2 goals: Students have partly normalized own breathing until about 25-35 s daily CP and over 20 s MCP (morning CP), so that they have no need for medicati on and do not experience the symptoms of their main health problem, e.g., asthma , bronchitis, heart disease, epilepsy, sinusitis, eczema, etc. However, such lea rners can still suffer from airways inflammation, allergies, GI problems, diabet es, arthritis, and other hormonal problems and musculo-skeletal disorders. Most
medications are absolutely unnecessary, but some medical drugs (e.g., insulin, t hyroxin, etc.) can be REQUIRED to control symptoms of these higher-CP diseases. Th is is the level (Level 2) which is usually achieved by most people following But eyko instructions in the West. Depending on amount of practice and other factors , it takes about 0.5 - 2 months to learn. A diagram of required steps in order to achieve over 20 s CP 24/7: Chart for CP 20 requirements "No acute hv" means avoidance of those hyperventilating activities that cause CO 2 losses and affect the CP. These activities include coughing, sighing, yawning, sniffing, singing, and others. "PE" means physical exercise. All other requirements have specific Modules on this page. Module 8. How to develop diaphragmatic breathing 24/7 Topics: - Diaphragm function - Overview of the most important functions of the diaphragm in the human body - How to check one's predominant breathing: is it diaphragmatic or costal? Do yo u breathe using the diaphragm or chest at rest and during sleep? - Check your ability to move your diaphragm using a simple technique - Practice exercises and techniques for development of diaphragmatic breathing - Find out about exact criteria for transition to unconscious or automatic diaph ragmatic breathing at rest Module 8. How to develop diaphragmatic breathing 24/7. Module 9. Restrictions, limits, and temporary contraindications Normal breathing is the fundamental property of the healthy organism. Hence, bre athing normalization is the natural way to deal with pathologies of the human bo dy. However, not all people can use the same method in their breathing normaliza tion. While most people can apply the same general ideas, exercises and techniqu es (including reduced breathing exercise and DIY breathing device), there are gr oups of people who require modifications (individual tailoring) in their breathi ng retraining programs due to certain restrictions, limits, and temporary contra indications. Warning sign for Buteyko breathing retraining programYou should adjust your pro gram and follow specific links, if you have: Migraine headaches, panic attacks, and heart disease (aortic aneurysms; angina p ectoris; arrhythmia; atherosclerosis (plaque buildup); cardiomyopathy; ciliary a rrhythmia (cardiac fibrillation); chest pain (angina pectoris); high cholesterol ; chronic ischemia; congenital heart disease; congestive heart failure; coronary artery disease; endocarditis; extrasystole; heart murmurs; hypertension; hypert rophic cardiomyopathy; tachnycardia; pericarditis; post-myocardial infarction; s troke) Respiratory disorders involving lungs (asthma, bronchitis, COPD, emphysema, cyst ic fibrosis, pneumonia, tuberculosis; pulmonary edema; etc.) Presence of transplanted organs Pregnancy Brain traumas and acute bleeding injuries Blood clots Acute stages (exacerbations) of life-threatening conditions (infarct, stroke, ca rdiac ischemia, severe asthma attack, metastasizing cancer, septic shock, multip le organ failure, near-death experience, etc.) Insulin-dependent diabetes (type 2 diabetes) Loss of CO2 sensitivity
Low weight (underweight) Warning. Consult your family physician or GP about use of this breathing exercis e for your specific health problems. Advice signIf your current CP is less than 25 s, your most optimum breathing exe rcise for faster CP growth is with a DIY breathing device or the Frolov breathin g device. Hence, it is smart and much easier to start with the use of Amazing DI Y Breathing Device or Frolov Breathing Device (their effects are similar). You c an learn the Buteyko reduced breathing exercises later, when your CP is more tha n 30 s. Module 10. Free Buteyko breathing exercises Note.

How to fall asleep fast - using the Buteyko reduced-breathing exercise for falli ng asleep and higher morning CP. How to sleep less: If you want to increase your morning CP, you surely need to k now and use methods and techniques that help you to sleep less. Longer sleep mea ns more damage due to hyperventilation and greatly reduced rate of your overall week-after-week progress. Module 16. Physical Activity and Running Benefits of physical activity - Promoting increased cell oxygenation. Learn abou t the relationship and optimum proportions in relation to breathing exercises. Benefits of running - Jogging, according to Dr. Buteyko, is the most natural way to improve body-oxygen levels. Furthermore, it can be the key factor to achieve very high CPs and super-health states. Breathing techniques for running - correct breathing during running (for maximum O2 delivery to cells) is based on nasal, diaphragmatic, and slow breathing. Fin d the secret of Tarahumara legendary running abilities, which also include baref oot running. Training mask - if you want to maximize effects of exercise (make exercise nearl y twice more effective) consider using Training Mask. The mask can be used when one has over 20-25 s CP. It is particularly beneficial for those who like sports , or have too little time for exercise, or do not use breathing devices (i.e., u ses only the Buteyko exercises). Module 17. Talking Skills Proper public speaking techniques and talking skills - Correct talking skills re quire reduced ventilation of the lungs for higher CO2 and O2 levels in body cell s. Module 18. Digestive Health Signs Ideal or normal digestive health has numerous signs that indicate effective work of the GI tract. Most modern people have poor digestive health due to low O2 le vels in body cells. This manifested in their use of toilet paper due to the soil ing effect. How to improve digestion - eBook that provides a practical program for people wi th GI problems, and even most ordinary people. Module 19. Buteyko Breathing Problems When a breathing student is stuck with less than 30 s CP, there are numerous cau ses that can be responsible for their inability to get higher body O2. These cau ses are summarized as Buteyko breathing problems. Module 20. Emotional Trauma: Effects and Solutions This is a new module that was added in January 2013. It can be located somewhere above due to its importance. Over 90% of people have emotional traumas that poi son their current lives. For some people, this past emotional trauma (usually a childhood trauma) can play a decisive role in their poor health and a low mornin g CP. Find out more about Emotional trauma: effects and solutions. Future Projects
Lifestyle factor: Body oxygen < 30 s Body oxygen > 50 s Energy level Medium, low, or very low High Desire to exercise Not strong, but possible Craving and joy of exerc ise Intensive exercise with nose breathing Hard or impossible Easy and effortl ess Typical mind states Confusion, anxiety, depression Focus, concentration, cl arity Craving for coffee, sugar and junk foods Present Absent Addictions to smoking, alcohol, and drugs Possible Absent Desire to eat raw foods Weak and rare Very common and natural Correct posture Rare and requires efforts Natural and automatic Sleep Often of poor quality; > 7 hours Excellent quality; < 5 hours nat urally There are rumors that getting more than 40 or 60 s morning CP is very hard. With the right program, it is relatively easy for younger people (in 20-40s), and I had even people who were over 60 or 70 years old and were able to get more than 60 s for the morning CP in about 6-10 weeks after starting the course. There wil l be more information here about the required steps. At the moment, there are 2 sources of such information: Oxygen Remedy online webinars and my big book. This transition to over 40 s for the morning CP requires several important facto rs: - 33-35 s for the morning CP (if you have less, you need to review Sleep Modules and increase your morning CP) - 50+ s CP during the day or after Buteyko breathing exercises. If you have over 30 s for the morning CP, but cannot get this result (over 50 s for the final CP ), get my eBook that is called "Advanced Buteyko Breathing Exercises" in either Kindle or PDF format - less than 6.5 hours of sleep naturally (without trying) - and no soiling (see my book "How to Improve Digestion" and achieve this effect ). *** Under construction *** You can leave your feedback and comments below.

Artour (mod) said: Yes, if cold air makes inflammation worse, it will make asthma and the CP worse. Use a mask or scarf. Anonymous said: I live in a cold climate-- I recently began Buteyko, and have asthma symptoms. T hough I nose breathe, I feel the cold aggravates my symptoms. Does inhaling the cold air (while breathing as little as possible) work against improving the CP?
Artour (mod) said: No, blocking one nostril is usually not enough. Using DIY or Frolov device, with nose pinched, increases CO2. Anonymous said: If I block one nostril while sitting relaxed watching television is it enough to count as a RB exercise? I would be able to do that 1-2 hours a day but would it raise CP? It could be useful if you have any tips about times/things one can do without noticing that he/she is actually doing breath exercises. Artour (mod) said: Very unlikely. You need more breathing exercises (better 60 min+) + lifestyle ch anges. Sometimes, people need even more than that: see this page in the middle, in bold : www.normalbreathing.com/aaa-courses-fees.php Anonymous said: Now I'm confused what I asked because I can't see my own comment. But. I believe I have around 12-15 Cp. Would you think I can hit 30 by a month with 20 min fro lov, 2 cold showers (morning and night), and 1 hour of PE a day. Perhaps I can a dd RB if I manage to do them. I follow all sleep advice from your natural sleep book as well. Artour (mod) said: It would be close. RB exercises are easy and free (your second question is not right). Anonymous said: Hello Artour Would 20 minutes frolov device combined with 2 coldshowers a day be enough to eq ual 40-min breathwork? Or/And do have any free and easy RB exercices? :) Artour (mod) said: This is hard to tell without details of exercises. The books provide criteria of success for 1 or more sessions. Nicola Silva said: Cheers Dr. Rakhimov Thanks a lot for the great knowledge you are exposing to the world. I think it's revolutionary. It has the potential to change the whole society - and world! At least for those who practice what you teach. I've read your books and I'm execu ting Reduced Breathing daily. One question: Sometimes my pulse gets higher and s ometimes the CP has a very low increase after the exercise. Can it be due to too strong air hunger or too long intermediate breath holds? Thanks. Artour (mod) said: One can take supplements with B12 and Fe. Anonymous said: Artour, is it possible to have a vegetarian diet without nutritional deficiencie s such as B-12 and iron which apparently only come from meat? Also, a lot of people these days (male and female) will be suffering from fatigu e and be unable to progress with their breathing retraining due to too frequent ejaculation or orgasm (pornography addiction and sexualised advertising is very prominent in the Western world, if not everywhere these days). Artour (mod) said: Something is likely missing and that causes nausea: a lack of exercise, or nutri
ents... Poor posture can contribute. Without details, it is hard to tell. But that needs private help. Brian said: I have been training with a DIY breathing device 3x per day, 15 min each, for ab out four months for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and over this time, MCP has risen from 10 to 20 (or more), with CP after a session occasionally reaching 40 but us ually 25 or so. Thank you very much for answering all the questions I had when I first began. I plan to continue my training until well (so far no significant r eduction in fatigue), but I have the following question: recently, I have starte d to experience nausea during a session on the DIY breathing device. It occurs m aybe 40% of the time. Usually, I can keep going, but sometimes, I need to stop. CP almost always increases after a session, and even if there's nausea, it still increases, though maybe not as much. What could be causing this, and is there s omething I can do about it? Artour (mod) said: 1. What is the general protocol for doing too much? See Overtraining Effect and Loss of CO2 sensitivity in the Advanced Buteyko Exer cises book. For MP effects and Buteyko works, you should read and comment on right pages. William said: Hey Artour Thank you for answering my previous questions. I have a few more for you: 1. What is the general protocol for doing too much? I've overdone the breath hol ding a number of times of the past few weeks. I think I'm ramping up CO2 too qui ckly in my body (my sessions are 20 minutes long). I get a rebound effect someti me later of a dull headache and chest tightness, probably from vasoconstriction after this fast CO2 rise. I never get the effect with the DIY device. What is yo ur general advice for this scenario? I slept so horribly last night I wanted to know if I can aid recovery in any way. 2. In Patrick McKeown's 'Close your Mouth' one of his primary exercises is the ' many small breadth holds'. I've used this as my main exercise when doing buteyko as I mentioned above. McKeown writes "Your maximum breath hold (for this exerci se) should be no greater than half your Control Pause at the time." Do you agree with this advice? I think I've been stupidly holding for too long. 3. Which of Buteyko's writings and lectures are available in the english languag e? How much is freely available online? (I do intend to purchase your book on Bu teyko's '69 Moscow Lecture) Thanks Artour (mod) said: That is a good idea (requires time of course). Currently, the Map page of this s ite has the general review of covered topics, while my own contributions are her e: www.normalbreathing.com/aaa-contributions.php Anonymous said: Can you make a separate section for unique topics present on this website so tha t people who have read your books won't miss that information? Artour (mod) said: Books and the site have some common and some unique topics. Both Crohn's disease books have nearly the same information as the Digestion boo k.
Anonymous said: I am planning to purchase all your books from Amazon. Is all information present on this website available in those books? I could not find "How to improve your digestion" book on Amazon. Why is it not l isted? Can you make it available on Amazon? If not, what is another method to pu rchase it?
