1500% = 15x100% So it’s not 1500 times more…. It’s 15 times more…. No one else has commented on this?? Guess there’s some extra humming to do. Great video though!

[@ravichadha1722]

Ancient Indian Yogis knew all about this and one of the early morning exercise/pranayam recommended was BHAMBRI YOGA. which literally means taking a deep breadth thru nose and make humming sound in your throat vibrating your vocal cords like a bhambari ( humming bee). Do it daily to enjoy its astounding benefits.

Mike when you were twelve years old did you have any idea of how much you would change humanity via breathing exercises. I now live with the Maya in the Highlands of Guatemala for 35 years and have able to save a forest to breath clean air. So your Take Deep Breath has been a massive organization and inspiration to Breathing, Breathwork, and the Cleansing of the BLOOD. I love the way you made this happen because of your Humanity. Peace. If you ever want to do something down here or over here just let me know because mi casa es tu casa, my forest is your forest...So can take a deep breath say do a course on today's breathing practice is about cleaning the blood or do we always clean the blood when we do Wim or Buteyko or Box or Soma or what is it specifically to clean blood...breath of fire pranayama or your the man from Dublin...Among Swimming or Amongst Women both great Irish literature but they Don't cleanse the Blood. Viva Don Miguel!!

[@catsnmi270]

Vincent, how very interesting that you're living in the forest of Guatemala! I spent some time there myself living in the forest of Tikal , in a hammock slung between two trees, and I loved being awakened by the monkeys each morning. Fantastic experience! An old friend who was with me at the time married a Guatemalan and had 5 children, They built and ran the Jaguar Inn for years before she was tragically killed in a small plane crash whilst returning from Guatemala city after taking her youngest to school. Her two oldest children - (family name De Solis) now run the hotels in Flores and Tikal. Carry on saving the forest!

[@bill7853]

Hi Mike .. I haven't read all the comments but have practiced this type of breath work for years on and off and it certainly calms and reduces anxiety regardless of the nitric oxide benefit . It also stimulates the parasympathetic Nervous system via the vagus nerve being vibrated. Gargling does the same ! You probably know this but it explains why people are always calm and happy when they hum . The extended out breath is the same as you get when whistling ... Again something that only happy people do generally when content. Finally .. AUM is both vibratory as well as extending the outbreath so stimulates the vagus ) parasympathetic N S in 2 ways at once . That is the reason I suspect it became such a popular mantra despite all the stories about being the sound of the universe Best wishes , Bill in Devon

[@bill7853]

@BuildTheFutureYouWant thanks ...silly mistake by tired brain

[@ellieprincess08]

@bill7853 this explains so much why my 5 year old son hums all the time. He is very sensory and I notice he hums tunes while watching videos on his iPad and sometimes just hums without a specific rhythm. Now I understand why he does it, it makes him feel good/relaxed/happy.

[@chakra1373]

So sad!

[@vaibhavsharma162]

Its bhramari, bhramar in sanskrit means black bumblebee which humms like this and hence the name. Its a part of several types of Pranayam practiced in yoga. Try Kapal Bhaati and your abdominal region will be fat free with HB in the range of 15 to 18 without supplements. Theres even more. Being from Bharat(India) where it all originated I am greatly pleasured to see how its reaching the masses and benefitting everyone 🙏🙂. Love to all🤗

Fantastic Comment Vaibhav, This method reminds me of short form Surdashan Kriya , with exhaling breath longer then inhalation

[@vaibhavsharma162]

@@crumdub12 Yes, Sudarshan is a weapon of mass destruction which our God Lord Shri Vishnu Ji beholds. The process in Sudarshan kriya is that the exhaling breath should be twice as long as the inhaling one. And the speed of this process is increased gradually upto the point where you are comfortable enough to perform it at this speed for 5 to 10 mins. 🔥✌️😁

[@distributorovkvlt-points5481]

Remarkable......I think your onto something here Mike. Did this for about 5 minutes and i'm feeling good and relaxed, the humming somehow makes this less tedious than other breathing exercises, so that's a plus as well. thank you for sharing this technique.😃👍

Great channel, great video. How, at 53 years old, am I just learning these things. I've talked to doctors about low nitric oxide production and not once was it mentioned how much the sinuses and nose breathing played a role. Thank God for "alternative" medicine and people like yourself.

[@audrey3042]

Thank you so much for this amazing NO exercise 👃. Maybe you can interview Dr. Louis Ignarro aka the noble prize winner for discovering NO in the early 90’s. I’ve seen him on numerous podcasts here on KZbin. He is obviously brilliant but also wonderful and kind 😊

[@LioraC]

Thank you. It's wonderful to have these exercises ❤

[@sureshscribnar]

The breathing technique is called "ujjayi breath" in Pranayama and taught as part of various Pranayama & Meditation courses along with many other breathing techniques for anyone interested

[@bena1981]

This is not ujjayi, ujjayi is through restriction of the glottis generally - look it up

[@mysticstar08]

This is ‘ Bramari’ pranayama

[@madeleinegrayson8372]

This is nothing like ujayi. Both are very beneficial, but this is quite different.

[@gonzalobolla]

This is not Ujjayi. It's a Brahmari pranayama (A simpler than the complete technique).

[@Mark1Mach2]

Ujjayi - is not for the untrained. This is much safer Brahmari pranayama.

[@keyathomas4052]

Thank you, Mike! I know it’s a small amount. I’ll do better when I can.

[@karez1220]

Thank You Michael! Your work supports me. 🙇‍♀️

[@TonusFabri2024]

Dang, but this works! I gave it a good tryout on my walk today, doing the breathing/humming each time I took a rest stop. I get intermittent claudication walking, with pain & weakness n my calves forcing me to stop & rest for up to 5 minutes every block or so. With the breathing/humming, my calves recovered in about half the time, and after a couple of rounds I was able to walk almost twice as far before the pain set in. By the time I'd done 800m I felt I could have walked much farther. As a singer, I have a couple of suggestions for the humming, based partly on my training, but also from experimenting on my walk. First, use an open-throat hum. Your lips will be closed but your mouth should be open inside, your jaw and throat open and relaxed. You'll know you're doing it right if your nose tickles! My understanding is that it's that tickly tingle in the nose that actually generates the nitric oxide. Second, based mostly on how it _felt_, I think the humming may be more effective the higher you pitch it. I started off on a low note, which was comfortable and quiet enough not to be embarrassing. But as I tried humming higher and higher (and louder!) the tingling got stronger and stronger, until by the time I hit around middle C my whole head was vibrating! I don't know, but I suspect if you get it so your ears are tickling too, your body may be making even more nitric oxide by stimulating all your "pipes." Anyhow, it really does work. I had heard vaguely about humming helping circulation, but hadn't given it a serious try until KZbin tossed this video at me. Thank you!

I did this for 4 minutes and very intense body feelings came pretty quick. Tingling sensations all over body, more intense in my chest region and face. I have been having health issues since december. Fatigue, body aches, heart aches, high blood pressure,inflammation,dry and bloody eyes. Today i suspected from my symptoms that i may have nitric oxide deficency. I had your video recommended for me few months back, but then i did not know what nitric oxide was and couldn't think it might be responsible for my health issues, but i had your video burned it in my memory hence i found it quickly. Thanks.

Not in medmfield here but, does sound like it could well be a potassium deficiency. I ended up in ER with some of your symtoms which were quite painful running thru body. Two weeks prior to ER, had annual physical….and copy of lab work. I was admitted with sodium level of 33 which, from what I understood at time, throws off magnesium and potassium balance. BTW sodium….2 wks prior was 135 …where it was suppose to be. Get checked out! Be safe
