How Breathing Through Your Nose Will Change Your Life with Patrick McKeown
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 фев 2020
- How do you breathe? It might not be something you’ve ever given much thought to, but my guest on this week’s episode is convinced you should. Patrick McKeown believes breathing correctly - that is, through your nose, lightly, and slowly - is the secret to better health, fitness and overall wellbeing. Yet many of us are breathing through our mouths, breathing fast and shallow, and our health is suffering as a result.
Patrick’s talks me through the science of exactly why it is that nasal breathing is so fundamental to health and he shares how learning it himself transformed his sleep, his anxiety levels and drastically reduced his need for asthma medication.
We talk about how our emotions, sleep and breathing are all interlinked. Patrick also shares some incredible insights on the connection between breast-feeding and diet, mouth breathing as a child, jaw development and malocclusion (crooked teeth).
The good news is it’s never too late to correct your breathing. Whether you suffer from breathlessness, nasal congestion, snoring, stress, or anxiety - or if you simply want to improve your performance in any area of life - this episode is packed with practical tips on doing just that. In fact, you can get started right away with some of his techniques as you listen.

As you said, "It's never too late to correct." I'm 70, and for a week, with your help, through Wim Hof, I've been breathing slowly and through my nose. The result: the nasal pathways have become decongested, the hands are no longer cold and numbed, I sleep better and I have more energy and disposition. Good work!
That is so great news. I am so happy for you. Somehow I always thought to breathe in through the nose and breathe out through your mouth. I now make sure I change it. Much love. xx

@@JohnGone-wl8uo A very timely tip, thank you. This is the time for each of us to strengthen our resistance and overcome weaknesses, proactively. I also take the opportunity to suggest a crudívoros diet.
Awesome!!!!
Well done ! Keep it up
As a Respiratory Therapist of 25yrs experience I can say he is 100% correct
I think I am one of luckiest person in this earth that I watched this video 🥰🥰🥰
I have been 100% nose breathing for 5 months, and I am amazed how my quality of life has improved. It was difficult at first, but I stuck with it. I mouth tape at night and have added silicone nose openers. I am very calm all through the day. I exercise 3x a week and I'm not tired after an hour of cardio. I haven't needed any hay fever meds, we'll see after a few more months. I have more clarity of thought and energy.
Which brand of nose openers do you use?
I this side preeti here...my father has sleep apnea...in this video what he saying ...i cant understand...can you plz tell me in text

At 74 years old I first heard that I was a mouth breather by my dentist last Friday. I have been looking into this all weekend and yes, I do have nasal congestion, terrible insomnia and a host of other age related issues. I have stopped walking for health because I breathe so heavily folks think there is something seriously wrong with me....shallow, rapid breathing and always short of breath. I followed Patrick's nasal passage clearing yesterday and tried to remind myself to nose breathe. I got even braver and put a small piece of tape loosely right over the center of my lips last night!!! I am soooooo thrilled to tell you that I not only slept 9 hours, but I was relaxed and comfortable. I did wake once during that time and found my right nasal passage was blocked, so I unplugged it and replaced the 1" piece of tape across my lips. Fell back to sleep for another several hours...Woke up rested and not in a race to get something to drink because of dry mouth. Thank you, thank you, thank you....I realize this will require a lot of work to switch the way I breathe, but I am convinced that this will make a world of difference in my life!!!!!
@Linda ODonnell How has it been for you since you first started? Do update.
@@Joy-ky7vk I really worked at it for a month or so. I used the nose clip for sleeping, and working on proper breathing while trying to do some walking.....then when somewhat better I forgot all about it. The biggest change to my breathing seems to be physical therapy for a long term, severe back issue. As I began exercising I was amazed in the first session when my chest opened up thru exercise I had immediate better breathing....no more wheezing when I first get up out of bed. Very exciting development.
Went for a 21 mile bike ride today breathing only through my nose, occasionally breathing out of my mouth when things got tricky. Felt amazing on the bike and feel great afterwards. Only wish I knew this 10 years earlier!
So you should breathe in breathe out only through your nose?
@@BreastMilkEnjoyerX YES
No
You should breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth, and when exercising nose breathing only is not enough, then you need to breathe in and out through your nose and mouth
Nasal breathing and taping my mouth at night has made a huge difference in my life !
How?😂
Fascinating conversation. Not one minute of this conversation did I breath through my mouth.
I taped my mouth last night and slept with my mouth closed. Oh my goodness! What a difference this morning. I'm alert, pulse is slower and feel very calm. Will continue to breathe through my nose. Thank you so much for your research and passion about this truth. God bless!
Great work. I am happy for you. Much love. xx
I'm trying it for the first time tonight. I am so curious.
This is so interestimg
AMEN ME TOO
The first night was good for me but next two nights I kept waking up. How many days does it take to be normal?
I’m am asthmatic for over 48 years.... I now use Mckeown’s technique & my quality of life is much better... I am much healthier now & my asthma is very well under control !
Hi Dawn, delighted to hear that
Dawn Roberts this is fantastic.
This is a blessing that I came across...I was worried about my breathing. I was breathing thru my mouth and was feeling like I have shortness of breath. I closed my mouth and breathe and it felt better. Wow !🙏
Thank you very much for this important info on breathing thru the nose I have learned this from Tai Chi but not use it much, but I willpower more now . Thank you!🙏🏻❤️
just started breathing through the nose during watching this.... I feel so much calmer and a kind of relief right away.... wow
@@smert62 Yes--and a bit slower "as usual", but that came automaticaly
@@smert62 You are very welcome
Same here Dear..👍
I haven’t been able to breathe through the left side of my nose for years. I started trying this breath holding exercise and nose breathing last night and I can breathe almost clearly!
Nasal breathing brings me peace and calm and has lowered rapid heart beat and high blood pressure.
That was wonderful. 78 yr old 17 years into a diagnosis of congestive heart failure, whatever that means, and just loved this. Thank you so much.
I have attempted to meditate many times in my life and prior to this CD the only success I've experienced is with live guided meditation. ruclips.net/user/postUgkxzpa8CIfZcihW4Z0F_ja0QF3W9KIatrsq This is the first CD I've used that cuts through my unmedicated ADHD and enables me to truly relax and experience a quiet and energizing interval. The instructors voice is very soothing and pleasant to listen to. I am easily able to sit successfully through the entire CD, and for quite some time after. I cannot adequately express how tremendously helpful this CD has been on my spiritual journey!! Two thumbs up and 10 stars!
Wow! THIS WAS BREATHTAKING!!!! Wow! I wish THIS was a course in schools! EVERYONE WILL get something out of THIS information! I’m laughing at how much I just learned about something as simplistic as BREATHING! I thought I knew! However, I see now that was NOT the case! If ANYONE is reading THIS comment….PLEASE, do YOURSELF a favour and take the time to listen to THIS! I GUARANTEE YOU WILL BE SO SO happy you did with EVERY BREATH YOU take from here on out! Literally! Wow! This didn’t take my breath away, it gave MY breath BACK! Thank you Dr Rangan for this podcast & your RUclips channel! And of course,thank you Patrick Mc Keown for informing us ALL on how to breathe correctly and the power our breath has! I’m SO excited to tell the people I know to get your book and to watch this! Now for some reason I have an overwhelming feeling of wanting to listen to the song 🎶 “Every Breath You Take”!By English rock band, Police!👮♀️Cheers!
Noone will read that mess
Thanks 😊
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, Patrick. This is a life changing information. I have started taping my mouth for the last two days. I have been a mouth breather for years and have dry mouth until three days ago. My dentist never told me why I had dry mouth and dental issues despite I have a very healthy diet and I don't drink consume sugar or soda. I was diagnosed chronic fatigue. Things finally click.
How are you now?
Time to educate your dentist about this.
@@RamonaMcKean So are you breathing through your nose now and how is your been effected for the better
@@sammyboogoeslive9467 pretty good. Thanks.
Yes, the doctors do want us to be sick. I was a paramedc for 8 years & observed how much difficulty people have when they are short of air. I thought what a horrible experience! When I later became a nurse I could not believe that I needed to teach my patients how to breathe.You are so smart & so right on. I agree with your theories & research, good job!!
Doctors don't want people to be sick, they just have such high focus on diagnostic, trauma and medication management. They lose track of how something as powerful as nasal diaphragmatic breathing can have an impact on peoples lives from pain, respiratory conditions to stress reduction and sleep quality among many other benefits to peoples health.
100% agree
@@chopsnz88 wrote: Doctors don't want people to be sick
That's the same as saying doctors don't want their job as doctors, because if there were no sick people there would be no _need_ for doctors. Doctors need sick people in order to be doctors, i.e. you really can't practice medicine if there are no sick people to treat.
Somehow I always thought you breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. I changed it now. But doctors really don't know how to change their approach to issues. They only look at the symptoms, but people just need advise about how it come. What is the cause. I learned and I know try to help myself and others.
@@irmabronderagreed, self care is the way. Raised to take care of others first, I realize life is like airplane oxygen ... take care of yourself first so you can take care of others.

This man is a Life Saver, God bless him for helping all those in need.
This conversation is life changing for daily health. I have ordered Dr. McKeown's book. I am now a champion to adopt nasal breathing. I started as I listened to your podcast. Thank you for being authentic human beings. Breathing intelligence helps me to stay connected to my physiology. Steps to slow, light and using the diaphragm and then breath holding... to a lighter more efficient life.
I’m not sure where to begin. Starting with James Nestor I happened upon Patrick. I am a yoga teacher and practitioner for the past 30 years. I have been a nose breather (I believe) for most of my life and have taught my students the importance (thinking it was basically air filtration and the ability to slow the breath down) of nose breathing. I used to be a runner and cyclist as well and for those activities I ALWAYS exhaled out the mouth. Thank you, Patrick for compiling the research so that I can explain with confidence the scientific evidence. My sister recently developed high blood pressure and while she awaits her doctor appointment, I suggested for her to focus on nose breathing. (She, too has asthma and always was a mouth breather). I am excited to dive deeper to integrate this breathing with my clients.
Just found this channel. Took me 3 days to finish listening to the podcast it's long but worth every minute.
I just now realised I breathe through my mouth and take short shallow breaths. I've started practicing nasal breathing, for now it's a deliberate effort.
The first nasal breathing of the rest of your life! Your story reminds me 2 years ago hearing Joe Rogan with James Nestor, since then I went from 20% nasal breathing to 100%.
So great on so many levels. I’m 85 and I’ve been doing many of these things by accident for the last 30 years. I am the best 85 I could be, the best 85-year-old I know I’m looking forward to another 20 or 30 years. Also when making a point during the conversation if you would look into the camera directly I think it would be so much more effective and persuasive. Keep on keeping on😎
man you sound like such a G. I hope ill have the same spirit as you when im 85. how has it been for the past 8 months? you noticed any differences with this? interested to see other people's experiences with this.
My son has always been a mouth breather, has had cavities since he was 18 months old, I made the connection but had no idea what could be done about it. He recently started complaining about his nose always feeling blocked and then I was concerned. I thought of seeing a ENT specialist but knew the solution would likely be surgery. By some miracle of youtube algorithms a video about mouth taping came up and we tried it that night, it's only been 2 nights but it all makes sense that his mouth breathing is the cause of his chronic congestion. So grateful for people sharing this information and saving us from unnecessary medical interventions.
Stunning. I remember my mum telling me to stop breathing with my mouth, I looked gormless. I was about 4 or 5. Apparently born with bronchitis. No treatment. Discovered I had 'asthma in my 30s. Only since starting recent singing lessons did I realise I was breathing incorrectly.
I wondered if singing lessons would help me breath correctly even if Im not a great singer
@@DianneElizabeth64 made a difference to me and I definitely have improved. You need to select the right teacher though, as in all professions some are better than others. Good luck.
This is probably the only podcast I've ever fully watched/listened to.
A friend from Canada linked this awesome talk, I just shared it here in Holland, Thank you So much, such incredible information. Been on and off breath work, could not find the diamond, here it is. Thank you two beautiful inspiring men!
Really excellent discussion. I absolutely agree with slow and deep breathing helps to improve health. Retention of breath ( kumbhak) stimulate autonomic nervous system. In tern you become more smart in awareness. Regular pranayama will not only keep you healthy but increase your longevity.
Dr Vasant khatav MBBS MD India
Started nose breathing five days ago and haven’t needed my asthma puffer once. Why isn’t this promoted by the medical establishment?????
They don't make money off that.
Because it's free my friend?!
The medical industry is, well... an industry, with the single purpose of making money for the shareholders. They have no other priorities, just like any candy company or porn studio.
Very happy for you by the way.
It helps VCD as well. Which commonly gets misdiagnosed as asthma.
Haha, I'll give you one guess. Think 💸
I am a physician and it’s not because we are withholding information, we are NOT taught this stuff in medical school
I found out I had trouble breastfeeding; later very crowded teeth, so much so got some removed when 12, have suffered from depression all my life, wake up with a dry mouth, I’ve made jokes that my mouth is always open in photos. Listening to this I was shocked to realize I was unconsciously choosing to breath through my mouth. Recently I had such shortness of breath, I got a Covid test (negative). I thought maybe I was having anxiety. Wow...all new info to me.
Life changing! Over 20 years looking for answers, this is help from very unexpected source. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Xxx
I am so happy for you. Much love. xx
Same bro

Probably one of the most interesting conversations. Patrick McKeown you make so much sense. Thank you.
I had a deviated septum, I believe from birth, so this caused me to be a mouth breather. I got surgery to fix my nose. It worked and I finally breathed air through my nose in full. It was amazing. But I was still a habitual mouth breather. I’m just starting very conscious nasal breathing.
Right on Patrick! Keep up your passion. Sometimes, you have to keep talking and repeating yourself to educate the lukewarm, doubting Thomas’’, so to speak. Sometimes the answer to our ailments are more simple and the struggle is to inform those that look for complicated, difficult ones.
Thank you very much. I just had good sleep last night for using my nose consciously for breathing.
God bless Doctors like you who generously share your knowledge and expertise to help people.
Hey when you were a mouth breather did ur face get longer in size
Nero Tesorero, Hi, IS he saying Breathing from the nose and expelling thru the mouth or thru the nose too?
@@janetandre5809 Both breathing in and out through the nose.
This is the only podcast I repeatedly listened to over recent two yrs . I have bought the book too. Thank you very much !
I've been able to conduct 'lucid-breathing', so to speak. Being aware of breathing through the nose while I sleep. I now awaken earlier and much more rested. I believe this is my solution to better quality of sleep.
Such a beautiful interview. Thank you guys so much for the info. I will try to spread it my tribe. Breath as a tool not as a rule!
I was hanging on every word. Thanks to the both of you for such an eye opening (or should I say nose opening) discussion! Rangan, thank you for setting this up. I learn so much from you, your interactions and interventions. Im going to look further into this and bring it to the athletes I train within my CrossFit affiliate. Wow!!!!
Also, my 6 breaths last 1:10, i didn’t know how impactful this was to my good health!!!
I read Dr. Buteyko's breathing technique book twenty years ago, when on life-long heavy doses of asthma medication. My steroid intake halved within days and I was totally off meds within months. Life changing.
❤🥇😃
Thank you Dr Rangan for bringing this podcast. Thank you so much Patrick for sharing this valuable knowledge.
Thank you so much this is very helpful I listened to this a year ago since then I started to nose breathing it was like a miracle and I recommend it to whoever cross my path thank both of you so much.🙏
Absolutely loving this channel! Just found it today and have watched 3 great conversations
Practicing this has litteraly changed my life ..Iam grateful for uu.
This is SUCH AN AMAZING, EYE OPENING INTERVIEW ..once i am done, i am going to hear it all over again ...thank you for sharing these gems
No exaggeration to say Patrick saved my life
What did you change?

I have been doing nasel breathing listening to you then I realised my head was clearer thank you lm going to keep trying this .
I enjoyed this lecture very much!! Great information, very useful material.
I’m 24 years old and only just getting a hold of it. As he said, people with depression or anxiety have it harder with breathing. I was one of those people, happily living and over my depression (took 5-6 years of therapy). Now I’m breathing far better and using my nose as much as I can. It’s on and off with sleep but I’m getting there💪🏻
The internet is a facet of this life that is teaching me if we follow a certain variety of thought channels available now that we are amongst great prophets in this age.
Dr. Patrick McKeown has great knowledge & presentation
Thank you and Thank you! I have asthma all my life. Thank you for the podcast and the info is so helpful. I felt hopeless as people don't understand what we are going through. You are giving me Hope today.
I am late to the party. Have you tried any herbs or homeopathy? My life has been changed by this breathing and remedies. I use a combination of herbs and homeopathy. I am completely drug free and breathing better than I ever have. I had my gf try my remedies and she has been off her inhaler for almost 5 months now. She is learning the breathing. She said the changes have been incredible and she said the remedies work better than her inhaler ever did. Maybe look into it. Good luck!
I heard yesterday somewhere about nose breathing. Breathing through the mouth gives stress to the heart. Since then I am looking that I only breath through my nose. I always have learned to breath in through your nose and out through your mouth. The mouth is for eating and drinking and not for breathing. I love to hear more about it, so I am going to listen. Much love. xx
The NHS in the UK explained on their website to breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth. This is not right and should be changed.
LoL! How will they get funding to write more crap if they don't give you crappy advice so you can buy big pharma medicine for respiratory issues?
Imagine 70y old in the comment section who only just realized they should be breathing through their nose ... Imagine how much pharma has made from them over 7 decades and if one could capture the pain and misery, it'd probably be miles long.
Lord have mercy on the people!
Have you thought that perhaps it was put there deliberately to throw doctors off, thereby making them think it's normal so they can look to medicine as solution instead of asking you to shut up, literally, and breathe?
I mean, if Dr. Rangan himself is as mystified as you are about nose breathing, imagine the shit load of skewed research that bring false evidence that generate money for big pharma while keeping people miserable for decades.
Now I understand! This channel is changing my life!
I just find about the nasal breathing only few hours ago. I did the beathing exersize on another video and through those few hours I am breathing through the nose only. My infacted sinuse is more open now and feels almost normal. my MD highly recommend a surgery, it going on for over a year. Thank you!!!! Will continue the practice.
Can you please link or give the name of the video that is showing the breathing exercise you are talking about.
Patrick was telling my life's story !!! Great video, thanks so much!
Great interview and a lot of great information thank you
GREAT interview!! Learned a lot. I've subscribed.
Doctor Chatterjee you are a treasure in my inbox. THANK YOU for the beautiful things you are sending me
I love these guys! SOOOO helpful and truth full. Complete goodness!
Nasal breathing (nostril breathing) has been used in Yoga for all time.
Wonderful podcast ... packed full of great info!
It was invented by God! Like seriously. I'm shocked that people didn't realize that the nose is for breathing. No wonder they're hiring doctors to reshape the thing because they think it's a beauty accessory
Indeed! And I recommend anu loma viloma pranayama to everyone...it works miracles!
AMAZING. Wow. I needed this. Good Information that everyone should know. Thanks for your good work.
Enormously useful and enlightening. Thank you gentlemen...
I appreciate the precise choice of words to optimize meaning and not over-state what is know - by both speakers.
Regarding nasal congestion, people overlook the importance of hydration for clear sinuses and easier breathing.
Brilliant podcast! Thank you
Patrick a real gem.
EXCELLENT EXPLAINATION. EVERYTHING HE IS SAYING IS TRUE. I HAVE OBSERVED THIS ON MY SELF.
Brilliant podcast. I really needed to hear this. Already started to implement and can feel, see the benefits. This is a podcast I will save and watch again. Thank you.
Wow just wow Thank you for all your help on breathing , they should teach this to Moms and at schools !!!!
This is awesome stuff . I could notice a difference in a short time after shifting to slow nasal breathing . Thanks to both of you for doing this 🙏
Hey when u were a mouth breather did ur face get longer in size
I've been telling somebody with sleep apnea about nasal unblocked and taping mouth. They just laugh at me and still complain about their CPAP machine. I just shrug and say have a nice day.
People dnt want to heal, i love sharing info with family members and most dnt care to investigate either...there losss
The same thing happened to me when I told a friend about taping. I'm always surprised when people would rather rely upon a system that treats symptoms instead of researching the cause.
Unfortunately that's seems to be the case with most people they would rather complain about something than take action to fix it
Its crazy how many people refuse to look past how it may sound a little silly at first to use some of the strategies that this guy recommends. Family and friends would laugh at me when they see me taping my mouth at night or walking around the living room holding my nose and trying to slow my breathing rate but this stuff has helped me more than anything else would have.
It takes intelligent to have open mind and to be open to possibilities and new knowledge and information.
Wow!!! Such an eye opener!!!!! Can not thank you enough🙏🙏🙏
Absolutely incredible interview Patrick really interesting and I am totally on board with what you say thank you very much I will try to help as many people as I can in the same way
Very informative podcast taking me through years 2 and 3 Physiology with Biochemistry at University undergraduate degree . Helping me to understand processes underlying high blood pressure , breathlessness and simple ways of lowering BP and impacting breathlessness. Thank you.
Thank you for posting and sharing. Very interesting and informative.
Iv been mouth taping for about a month! Omg! I feel so much better, not sleep deprived anymore, feel great!😆
Hi Dr Rangan, you are a fantastic interviewer. Having first seen your TV series Doctor in the House, I was delighted when I found out you had a podcast.
I'm also a big proponent of Patrick McKeown's work and Buteyko Breathing. His work has had a tremendous impact on my fitness and more importantly my general well-being, and I'm sure I will experience further improvement as I continue to practice. His book Anxiety Free is also terrific and highly recommended for those who dwell too much in the past and/or future as opposed to being in the here and now.
Apart from praise, the reason I wanted to comment was to make you aware of something which maybe you hadn't realized. While speaking, did you notice that you seem to inhale a lot with your mouth? It's such a habit for many of us, that we do it without thought. I noticed the same thing with myself. One day, when watching a video I had recorded which, ironically talked about the benefits of nasal breathing, I realized, hey, I often inhale with my mouth. During exercise and while at rest including sleep, nasal breathing was fine, but unbeknownst to me til that moment, I was inhaling with my mouth while speaking. It was a real light bulb moment.
Thanks for all you do. Best wishes.
Andrew
Great comment 👍😁
@ Thank you Klaudia.
Watched this with chronic asthma. Next day l felt 87% better. !
I am so happy to have found this. I never got to breastfeed as a baby because my mother got a breast infectionand that resulted in me sucking blood rather than milk. I was switched to bottle feeding after that.
I nearly died from asthma as a toddler. I could not breathe through one nostril, and as a result I slept with my mouth open. I developed sleep apnea. I had to sleep apart from my husband, which was upsetting to me. I am always tired. I find I feel foggy in my brain and feel as though I could fall asleep at any time of the day. I am making myself breathe through my nose, and I am practicing Wim Hof method. If this helps me, it will be like a miracle for which I will be eternally grateful!
Good luck for your health. Take it easy
a simply brilliant podcast. both at the top of their game. Hats off....
Well done Patrick and appreciate your contributions to share your wonderful ideas with practical ideas 💡.
This information is life changing
Very powerful, thank you! Even though I mostly breathe through my nose, yet easily get my breathing totally out of sync due to anxiety. I'll definitely start the exercise right now.
what raised the Drs awareness to Nasal Breathing in the past few years..... good talk for many. The mouth stays moist when on the right foods and a good breathing ... People pull out the hairs from there nose How does that effect breathing through the nose.... very insightful!
This was fascinating and very helpful, thank you
Both of you are phenomenal ....it is so interesting facts overlooked...I will surely follow .Great job Mackeno w

Sleep Apnea Asthma and the formation of facial features - so valuable.

This is awesome stuff . Thank you very much for both of you.
I have been breathing through my nose for the last three days since watching one of your video’s. I have realised that whenever I consciously think about my breathing, I am actually breathing through my nose automatically without trying. Amazing as I have spent decades as a mouth breather. HOWEVER, when I lie in bed I find my nose is stuffy and I slip into mouth breathing again.
I just listened to an interview with James Nestor about this. He commented that for millions of Americans their problems are related to poor sleep directly but the fact that they can't breath then trying to get to sleep and the experience of it is very poor. I have a very dry nose and am frequently stuffed up at bed. I notice a pretty big difference in restfulness if I have been able to breath well.
Hey catlover by breathing through ur nose did it slim down ur face or cheeks?
@@nasreenakhuda Hello Nasreen, well how funny you should ask that, I have recently thought my face looked slimmer. Why does nose breathing do this?
@@catlover5350 so ur face got slim after nose breathing. Say correctly pls!!!
@@nasreenakhuda Yes, but I don’t know if that was the cause.
Will definitely try this. Thank you so much for sharing such vital information 👏
