Buteyko Breathing - Breathe Light, Slow & Deep | Guided Exercise for Anxiety & Brain Fog

Its interesting how many names there are around the world for every one breath ratio. The 5.1.5 Breath is the number 1 nervous system reset method in yoga and a 5 count breath is also akin to buddhist breath work . The 5 count breath through the nose is also called the Earth Breath because it is for grounding and centering. The subtle breath opens up the breath inside of the breath, and activates spiritual centers. The cathartic body breathing opens up the primal and instinctual centers and is excellent for ridding off unused and often times misused stored energy. Its good to take into consideration one's temperament and emotional constitution to recommend which ratio and level of energy output their life-force will most resonate with.

I respect very much the work of Dr Butheyko! I am not at all fan of hyperventilation after watching so many interviews of few followers of Dr Butheyko and reading the books from Dr Artour Rakhimov. I wish everybody knows how powerfull the peacefull breathing is for a healing and oxygenation of the body.

[@thebuteykomethod]

Thank you so much for sharing @JorBrouwer. Yes the thing with paced breathing is that you need to find the right pace for your body, and then find the right balance of air hunger, not over breathing, but not creating too much air hunger either. Sounds like you are finding a balance 🙏

[@Luirybicka]

Hi 😊 i did it and it's so gentle and calming. Exactly i needed. But there's a question. After breathing i felt cold. Why is that? Everytime i do different breathing exercises i feel cold after, and sometime cramps

[@thebuteykomethod]

Hi @Luirybicka, it could be that you are either over-breathing (taking too big breaths) or that the air hunger is too strong. Both of these could cause your blood vessels to constrict, restricting blood flow. It can involve a bit of detective work to figure out what is going on. You could also try some of the other breathing exercises in the channel to see if the same thing happens. It might also be worth working one to one with a breathing coach (like me ;)). Hope that helps 🙏

Hi there! The idea is that your breathing will become lighter and slower all the time, but not as slow as while doing this exercises.

Hi Nei Am using this video a lot. Thanks!! Can I ask you what you feel about the Wim Hof method? The reason I am asking right now is because I was at a lecture with a breathing coach who is more a fan of WH than Buteyko which I find strange. I am a medical professional and while I think WH is cool I just dont see the reason to do it. I dont know if I trust this science. For ex you WANT your immune system to deal with endotoxins in your body. I see why you would hold the breath for long. But flooding the system with O2 before - that part I dont know about. Would love to hear from another breathing coach your take. This guy I am talking about is also teaching cold immersion and stuff. Which actually I do every day. BUT I never hyperventilate before, well if I do its not intentionally at least 😅😅

Hi, thank you for your videos. I find them very helpful. I find as I practice this breathwork I yawn alot. Is that normal or am I doing something wrong? Tha n k you. Love and peace! Ruth

[@nicetomeetyoubeth]

Yawning is a good sign that energy is shifting in your body 💚

[@thebuteykomethod]

You are super welcome 🙏 re Yawning. There are 2 possible reasons - 1. It could be that your nervous system is shifting into rest and digest mode triggering the yawn. 2. The purpose of the exercise is to gently elevate Carbon Dioxide in your blood which leads to improved blood flow and oxygen delivery to the brain - the body will try to blow off this CO2 by taking bigger breaths, yawning and sighing which prevents the exercise from working properly. So you could try again and resist the urge to yawn and see if it is more effective. Hope that helps 👍

@thebuteykomethod Hi thank you my heart rate and blood pressure from anxiety normalized. How many times we can do it? It is normal the firsts times doing it? Seems like I am forcing the breathing in and out?

[@jaikumar7541]

I do Deep yoga breathing in the morning. My breathing timing is 10seconds each, inhale and exhale. Is that ok or 5.5 seconds is the best. Please advise.❤❤

[@thebuteykomethod]

So what is really important with "deep breathing" (and by deep I mean diaphragmatic not big) is to avoid over breathing or hyperventilating. So in this approach, we use a breath of around 5.5 seconds in, and 5.5 seconds out as this helps bring the body into a state of coherence. We then breathe light, quietly and gently to avoid hyperventilating. We create a mild air hunger which boosts co2 levels, and you can usually start to feel this as feelings of clarity or warmth. But there are many breathing approaches, and so you need to do what feels right for your body. Hope that helps 🙏

Been doing this exercises correctly for 2 months no change in my control pause..what’s wrong???

[@thebuteykomethod]

Great question. So it can be lots of different things. Firstly it depends on your Control Pause. To go above 20 you will need to incorporate some breath holds with the breathe light (see bottom of this page: www.thebuteykomethod.com/buteyko-breathing/how-to-breathe-light-the-complete-guide-to-reduced-breathing). Assume you are nasal breathing 24/7. It could also be other lifestyle factors like talking a lot, stress, or exercising with incorrect breathing that stop your control pause increasing. Ideally work with a Buteyko practitioner one to one to work this out. I offer one to one sessions on Zoom if you are interested, but there are lots of other great instructors out there: www.thebuteykomethod.com/one-to-one-buteyko-breathing

If you normally inhale for four and exhale for six - should you not then inhale for less and exhale for less to get the effect?

[@thebuteykomethod]

Great question @jakobw135! Yes you can do with 4/6 breathing. The important thing is to create the air hunger by breathing softly/quietly/gently. So that you feel a gentle shortage of air - like you'd like to take a deeper breath but don't. Also, to direct your awareness to the region of the diaphragm to support activation of the diaphragm. Make sense?

I think this is not working for me... I've been trying this exercise for two days. After two seconds I feel like my 'air capacity' is full, but I have to keep in inhaling for another three seconds. Then, while exhaling I breathe out until I'm at 20%, but then I have to start inhaling already again. Seems like it triggers faster heart rate and hyperventilation for me. Is this the goal? Am I doing something wrong? All tips appreciated!

Great question! The idea is to take very gentle, silent, small breaths. You might need to also change the length of the breaths to fit with your bodies needs. I go into this in much more detail in this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g5zWlIKNfp2UhMU

Awesome feedback. Totally agree. - I've actually stopped doing this at the end of more recent videos, e.g this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYOtlXdoj8iqp7Msi=Lh4mvrHmtEiEqjhh

@@thebuteykomethod thank you so much

[@bakertpaul]

I would love a version without the usual "hit like and subscribe" at the end.

[@thebuteykomethod]

Thank you so much for the feedback. Will avoid verbally asking at the end of vids in the future 🙏

Soft...no i just feel high pressure heavy in a half closed nose and laying down no air at all. Pillow needed

How do I get the ‘tone.’ I want to play the ‘tone’ at night while my Autistic son sleeps. We do the meditation every morning. My son absolutely loves the bell tone. I need something that does not have ads that will interrupt the sound.

[@thebuteykomethod]

Hey @jeffreym2009, there is a no ad premium version here, but you would need an insight timer plus membership: insighttimer.com/neiltranter/guided-meditations/coherent-breathing-timer-bells-5-5-breaths-per-minute Or there is a free 9-hour version here but the tone of the bells is different: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJ2YdWB-a5efadk Hope that helps 🙏🏻

It seems quite fast. I was hoping for a 5 to 10 sec breathe work out. 5 to 10 in.

[@The_Funky_Horn]

It’s about air hunger, as stated in the video. 😊

[@mokuho]

How many seconds inhale and exhale?😢

[@thebuteykomethod]

Depends on your body. In this one, it's 5.5 in and 5.5 out.

[@angiekitson-harris4257]

I cant get past the first bit, it kee0s repeating and repeating. What can I do please?

[@thebuteykomethod]

It could just be a browser issue. Try refreshing? 🙏

[@SharkFishSF]

You do understand that doing this after a rested sleep causes obe for many people....

[@thebuteykomethod]

obe?

@@thebuteykomethod out of body experience

[@thebuteykomethod]

@@SharkFishSF Ah, I see. So this should be rare. The most likely reason is if someone is over-breathing, which is a common mistake with this exercise. The breaths should be nasal, small, quiet, soft, gentle to create a mild air hunger and avoid over breathing/hyperventilation. So we are NOT breathing Wim Hof style here - quite the oppositive. Less common effect is the release of stored emotions/trauma, which is natural - mostly very gentle but with intense experiences it can be worth doing with a grounding partner or therapist. I'm not saying that either of these is your experience, just sharing for completeness 🙏

[@SharkFishSF]

@@thebuteykomethod yes it's rare. And to add, doing this kind of breathwork early morning before sunrise when ozone is in higher concentration heals the body a lot.

[@jilltaylor2966]

this discussion reminds me of a question I have. I've always had bouts of sleep paralysis and it is of course an uncomfortable experience. Has anyone talked about whether this practice helps or hinders the phenomenon. @@SharkFishSF
