Asthma occurs because you have developed a breathing depth level which is far in excess of the ideal, and you body uses defensive measures to force you to breathe less. These defenses include causing your airways to be restricted and also clogging them up with sticky mucus. |
The Buteyko Breathing Method Strategy is to use your breathing to trap in more CO2 at the first sign of an asthma symptom ... and after a short time use your fast acting, short acting drugs only if needed. According to Professor Konstantin Pavlovich Buteyko, the key to asthma and other diseases lies in the gas - carbon dioxide.
Consider the following facts:
The basic reaction that produces the energy inside each of our body cells involves two main gases. Most energy comes from the breakdown [or burning] of sugars [carbohydrates] in the presence of oxygen [O2]. This produces a nice amount of energy that we use to run our bodies. It also produces water and very importantly carbon dioxide. So we have:
Are reacted in the cells to produce ENERGY + Water + Carbon Dioxide |
The amount of carbohydrate and oxygen used up and the amount of water and carbon dioxide produced depends on the energy need of the cell ... For example running up a flight of stairs will use up more oxygen and produce more carbon dioxide than sitting quietly in front of your computer.
To keep the levels of both oxygen and carbon dioxide within safe levels our body adjusts your level of breathing. You will breathe more deeply when you are more active and produce more carbon dioxide, and less deeply when you are quiet and produce less carbon dioxide. You will note that it is the levels of carbon dioxide that regulates your breathing, not oxygen. [The exception is when you are being strangled.]
So our breathing is how we release the carbon dioxide that we have produced [and also replenish our oxygen.]
A Little More About Carbon Dioxide
There is only 0.03% carbon dioxide in the atmosphere today. This is almost none at all.
If you are perfectly healthy you will have about 6.5% carbon dioxide in the alveoli of your lungs. This is more than 200 times more than is present in the air around us ... Therefore your lungs act to trap in some of the carbon dioxide produced by your body.
This carbon dioxide is critical for keeping the pH [A chemical measure of how much acid is in our body fluids] at a safe level. Our pH is the ratio of bicarbonate to carbonic acid, which are both forms of carbon dioxide. The level of your carbonic acid depends on the amount of carbon dioxide that is in the alveoli of your lungs. If the carbon dioxide level drops [or rises] too much it can make fatally large changes to your pH.
More simply, the amount of carbon dioxide you keep in your lungs is very important. It affects the chemistry all of fluids of your body.
If you adopt a breathing pattern which causes you to release more carbon dioxide than you produce, the level in your lungs will drop. If it drops too far, the level of carbonic acid will be altered, and so the pH will also change. Even a slight change in your pH is usually fatal.
Now stay with me, this is the interesting part!
To help prevent the loss of carbon dioxide to a fatally low level, the body has developed certain defensive mechanisms. These include spasms of the airpipes and bloodpipes, and the increased production of mucus.
ASTHMA Is A Defense - Your Body Works Perfectly!
To use asthma as a simple example, let's think like a plumber in talk in terms of pipes... Let's say that your breathing is too great. As you are breathing out air that is rich in carbon dioxide, and breathing in air that has almost no carbon dioxide, the more you breathe - the less you trap in. If the level of carbon dioxide in your lungs gets too low - you really will have a serious problem. As you continue to release more carbon dioxide than you produce, your level gets lower and lower. Now your body does not want you to die, so if it is [genetically] able it will act to restrict the airflow to trap in some carbon dioxide.
It will do this by either reducing the size of the opening in your air-pipes, or by increasing the production of mucus in the pipes, clogging them up. The first defense will make you feel tight or wheezy, the second will give you a cough. Both will cause more carbon dioxide to be trapped in - as you physically cannot get as much out of your body through a smaller or blocked airpipe. The harder you try to breathe deeply during an asthma attack, the more your air-pipe will constrict.
If you can learn to reduce your breathing depth more than your asthma is making you, the attack will subside. That is what Buteyko method gently and carefully teaches you to do.
Even more than that, Buteyko Breathing Method shows you how to gently condition the section of your brain that is sensitive to carbon dioxide to get used to higher levels of carbon dioxide in your lungs! This means that as you have started with a normal higher level in your lungs, you will have a "safety" or "buffer" zone between you and any asthma at all. You will then have fewer and less severe attacks.
This is how the extraordinary results of Buteyko and asthma are achieved.
I have been so impressed on the Buteyko Breathing Method, that I wanted to get out and help people who suffer the Asthma Symptoms to be able to learn this method. See I found out about the Buteyko Breathing Method through a long time friend and colleague James Hooper.
James
Hooper is a Certified Buteyko Instructor and has been
running Buteyko Instructor led courses for many years both in Townsville and
through out Australia.
While talking to him one day I said,"Listen mate, its time that you wrote a training program we can distribute through out the world to help everyone learn the Buteyko method not just those people in Australia." The cool part is that he agreed and we have put together a Buteyko Breathing Method Kit that will help you master the Buteyko Breathing Method.
If you answered "Yes", then that's okay, I understand. Look there are lots of people out on the Internet offering snake oil solutions for a range of illnesses like Asthma, Cancer etc. I will make one thing clear, this will not cure cancer.
Whilst I was working with James on this project he shared with me some of his success statistics. This is what James had to say -
| - For people who have personal classes with me,
I have maintained a full guarantee of significant improvement in one week. - The average decrease in symptoms and relief |
Do Not Take James Word Either!
Look as I said before, there are many snake oil salesman on the Internet and I want to prove to you why you should trust Buteyko Breathing Method.
Facts on the Buteyko
Clinical Trial At
The Mater Hospital in Brisbane Australia
In December 1994, a clinical trial began which compared the efficacy of the Buteyko Method with conventional asthma treatment. It was conducted by Respiratory Physicians Prof. C Mitchell and Dr S. Bowler.
The Buteyko Clinical Trial was held at the Mater Hospital in South Brisbane and was funded primarily by the Australia Association of Asthma Foundations. The Buteyko Breathing Method trial was initiated in response to a huge volume of anecdotal evidence claiming its effectiveness.
It was a controlled, randomized study which compared the Buteyko Breathing Technique with a placebo breathing technique plus conventional asthma management. Measured were symptoms, quality of life, lung function and medication.
The outcome of the trial showed that a group of severe asthmatics [averaging over 12 puffs of relief medication] were able to reduce their medication to an average of just over 1 puff per day, simply by learning a different model for breathing. As well as reduced relief medication, the need for steroids was also significantly reduced. This is combined with massively reduced symptoms and greatly improved quality of life.

How Can I Learn The Buteyko Breathing Method?
You have now been given a very basic part of the theory of what causes asthma, and how Buteyko training stops it. The next step is the application of the theory. You can figure it out for yourself, or you can learn it the most efficient way, which is preferably with a good instructor in an Instructor Led Buteyko Breathing Method Training Course or alternatively you can learn the Buteyko Breathing Method using James Hooper's Buteyko Breathing Method Training Kit.

High Performance Super-Learning and Meditation Music is the ideal background sound for study, training, and stress reduction. Briefly, research shows that baroque music at 60 beats per minute causes your brain to produce more alpha [calmness] waves. This happens on both left and right sides of the your brain. This simply means that you calm down and relax, in a way similar to when you whistle a happy tune, or when you daydream. This "alpha" state of mind is ideal for learning, creativity, or just relaxing.... This is ideal meditation music to concentrate on your breathing. (Value - $29.00)
