Learn How to Breathe
THE ART of BREATHING
Breathing is one of the essential functions of our body to stay alive. Humans can stay alive for three weeks without food, three days without water, and only 3 minutes without air. Breathing delivers energy to the body, removes disposable waste, and most importantly supplies the brain with its demanding need for oxygen.
Even though the brain accounts for only 2% of the body’s mass, the brain consumes 20% of the body’s oxygen supply. Trillions of cells need Oxygen to perform all the bodily functions we take for granted. We take our metabolism and digestion for granted; we take the rhythm of our hearts for granted. We take our survival instincts for granted. We take our kidneys, lungs, and other vital organs for granted. AND without a doubt, WE TAKE OXYGEN FOR GRANTED.
OXYGEN DEFICIENT SOCIETY
WHY? Because we don’t have to think about it, which is a good thing. We don’t want to worry about digestion, PH balance, heartbeats, or the millions of bodily functions done automatically. Our only requirement is to give the body enough energy (breathing, food, sleep, sun, etc.) to perform at its highest level.
Therefore, we should be asking ourselves, “Am I breathing, truly breathing?” Most Americans hold their breath and/or take shallow breaths throughout the day. This releases stress hormones in the bloodstream, putting the body in fight/flight (survival) mode and causing chronic muscle tension and stress.
SUGAR & STRESS
The rising rates of obesity in America are linked to the diet of sugar and chronic stress. When processed sugar enters the bloodstream and the body is stressed, the body relies on anaerobic respiration and cannot efficiently burn fat. Hyperventilation and shallow chest breathing further limit oxygen and keep the body in a state that prevents fat burning.
SLOW DEEP BREATHING
Slowing the rate of breathing reduces stress and has many other health benefits: slows heart rate, lowers blood pressure, increases energy, reduces inflammation, and signals the mind/body to relax and digest. Most Americans don't know how to take deep breaths because the muscles needed for deep breathing are weak or atrophied.
Try this: inhale slowly for as long as you can, then exhale slowly for as long as you can. Notice whether you used your nose, diaphragm, chest, and whether your shoulders rose — these clues will show how well you engage the diaphragm.
BREATHING TEST — How do you score?
Answer the quick prompts below to see how your breathing patterns stack up. Most Americans score 0 or 1.
UNDERSTANDING FAT & RESPIRATION
Fat supplies more energy per gram than carbs or protein, but fat requires more oxygen to metabolize. Oxygen is essential for metabolism — the more oxygen we take in, the more we can process fat into energy.
| Food | kcal/g | O₂ required (L/g) | CO₂ (L/g) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Carbohydrate | 4.1 | 0.81 | 0.81 |
| Fat | 9.3 | 1.96 | 1.39 |
| Protein | 4.0 | 0.94 | 0.75 |
| Alcohol | 7.1 | 1.46 | 0.97 |
Because fat requires more O₂ to metabolize, improving oxygen intake via better breathing helps the body burn fat more efficiently.
THE POWER of BREATHING
The Introduction to Breathing course focuses on key muscle groups and develops exercises that strengthen the pelvic floor, diaphragm, and chest while teaching how to relax neck and shoulders for optimal 3D breathing.
BREATHE BETTER / LIVE BETTER
When I discovered the power of breathing, I was in the middle of a stressful period — financial hardship, legal trouble, and fear. Breath work gave me tools to change my nervous system response. Within months, many problems resolved. I learned: If I wanted to live better, I had to breathe better.
