"Praise for The Breathing Cure: Exercises to Develop New Breathing Habits for a Healthier, Happier, and Longer Life by Patrick McKeown ""My quest for correct breathing led me to Patrick McKeown and his clinical work with over 8,000 people, ranging from medical patients to elite athletes. I appreciate the value of 'feeling' things and learning through experiencing, but Patrick's scientific explanation of what is happening in the body when I nasal breathe as opposed to mouth breathing truly helped me understand how to use my breath as a tool to support my health and boost my performance. Patrick's passion for breathing education comes out of his own personal experience. Even though he himself was an extremely dysfunctional breather and an asthmatic -- he was told by his doctors that he would be on medication and limited in activities for the rest of his life -- he cured himself through breathing practices. I truly appreciate that Patrick's teaching empowers people to be proactive in supporting their own good health. Patrick simply explains the importance of nasal breathing and balancing respiratory gases to create better health and mitigate illness, chronic disease and injuries. If breathing and the breath is the essence of life, and it is meant to be intuitive, then how do we find our way back to the basics? Patrick makes this a comprehensive journey that anyone can use and share with their friends and family."" --LAIRD HAMILTON, surfing icon, founder of Extreme Performance Training (XPT), and New York Times bestselling author of Liferider Praise for The Oxygen Advantage: Simple, Scientifically Proven Breathing Techniques to Help You Become Healthier, Slimmer, Faster, and Fitter by Patrick McKeown ""Patrick McKeown, breathing trainer and author of The Oxygen Advantage, recommends breathing through your nose...It'll feel weird, but within a few weeks, you'll notice you can exercise longer and don't tire as quickly."" -- Dr. Oz, bestselling author of YOU: THE OWNER'S MANUAL and THE GOOD LIFE ""The Oxygen Advantage is one of the best books that I have read this entire year... one of my favorite books in the world actually"" -- Ben Greenfield, author of New York Times bestseller Beyond Training ""McKeown introduces readers to The Oxygen Advantage, an innovative but complex breathing technique that purportedly improves overall health...
