- Welcome to next part of our transformative "Breathe Light" series with renowned breathing expert Patrick McKeown! In this video, we delve into the incredible benefits of breathing light exercises for 30 seconds and mastering air hunger to enhance carbon dioxide tolerance.
👉 Learn how to deal with shortness of breath (air hunger) effortlessly.
👉 Discover quick techniques to calm yourself and reduce stress.
👉 Improve oxygen uptake in the blood for enhanced performance and well-being.
Breathing light exercises provide a gateway to building up a higher tolerance to carbon dioxide (CO2), which plays a crucial role in regulating our breathing patterns. CO2 is not just a waste gas; it's a powerful signal for our bodies to breathe and maintain physiological balance.
By embracing the art of "breathe light," you can unlock a host of advantages, such as improved blood flow to the brain through the dilation of blood vessels and maximizing the renowned Bohr Effect. This effect allows a higher concentration of CO2 in the blood, enhancing oxygen uptake and delivery to vital organs and tissues.
Join us on this eye-opening journey as Patrick McKeown shares his wealth of knowledge and expertise to guide you through these life-changing breathing practices. Let's cultivate a deeper understanding of our breath and take control of our respiratory well-being.

Very helpful. Thankyou.
A shame some viewers are so disrespectful. I am doing this practice while listening so it works like a meditation for me.
Thank you for your kind words, Leah
This was excellent, thank you! I listen to this a few times in a row.Just the practice with your guidance is helping me to increase my CO2 tolerance... My starting bolt score is about 15... haven't measured it again yet... more practice!😊👍
Thankyou. For years have been sent to have lungs checked heart checked all good. But there isn't anyone else to refer me too. My problem is can't breath on incline. I'm now waiting to see ent as one side of my nasal passage is blocked. I get constant infections and so much penicillin is not good. Rant over. So glad I found you
Hi Sandy, thank you for messaging. We are sorry you have been struggling. It might be worth reaching out to an instructor near you. Click the link oxygenadvantage.com/instructors/
However, discuss with your ENT also.
It works for me. I am looking for information, not entertainment.
Very much appreciated, thanks for sharing your experiences .❤
Thank you for sharing!!
Amazing!
Thank you !!!
Great sharing
This is soo interesting. Thought we should just take in a sniff of air and exhale slowly. Is this correct or wrong?
Pretty much @danielploy9143,
We are reducing air intake and allowing for soft, slow and light breaths of air in and out.
The slow exhale is very important for helping to keep us relaxed and calm as well as helping with reducing CO2 intake.
By learning to safely reduce the volume of air we breathe we can improve our CO2 tolerance and in doing so, improve oxygen uptake in the blood (Bohr Effect).
However beginners should not push themselves too hard.
Reducing breathing can be stressful. Those prone to panic or anxiety attacks are more susceptible to a negative reaction so should take it very easy.
A 'sniff' makes it sound like you could be taking in a TINY amount of air but that would be very difficult for beginners.
When practicing light breathing, simply reduce your current breathing volume comfortably and allow for a moderate air hunger.
Return to your normal breathing if you become uncomfortable.
Taking a daily BOLT score (ruclips.net/video/IXJmTl7AFGs/видео.html) will show you how you are progressing.
Don't push yourself too hard and don't be discouraged if the BOLT goes down or doesn't change. Our breathing varies daily based on many factors. It's a guideline not a hard fast rule. Keep practicing your daily breathing exercises and you will see improvement.
Great video!
Muito obrigada ❤ amei
What about the concern that people with obstructive sleep apnea hypoventilate and they are hypercapnic, so this in turn triggers adipogenesis (fat build-up) and puts the condition in a vicious cycle?
when I exhale so slow (20sec out) my impulse kicks in and I can't inhale so super slowly.
I m using CO2-tables, it works fine. ( Gert Leroy CO2-table)
Whats that ?
Does this eventually increase nitric oxide in blood?
Sir what is effect of exhaling fast .
One of the effects is, when we exhale too fast we can lose too much carbon dioxide. We need a certain amount of carbon dioxide for efficient gas exchange and oxygen uptake blood.
Demonstration????
Sometime you say CO2 is higher in blood we feel air hunger.and now you saying we need to increase CO2.sir pls explain I m confused whether to increase CO2 or decrrase
Both are correct; you want to slightly increase CO2 levels in your blood, which will cause air hunger. Training this will increase your tolerance for CO2 in the blood which will increase your stamina.
@@mvers6671 but if I reduce breathing more CO2 in blood so how can we tolerate that if I already had air hunger
@@rakeshjaswal5999 the air hunger will come later, with increasing levels of CO2. as compared to when you started practicing this.
I find i actually breathe a lot slower than most people (8 breaths per minute max) but I often struggle to get a satisfying breath hence why I exhibit sighing dyspnea rather frequently (at least every minute or 2).
You often talk about people breathing fast but what about people breathing relatively slowly and deep like me? Same exercises? Maybe I breathe too deeply all the time.
A good place to get an idea of your breathing would be to take your BOLT score @PCP1992.
It's a good guideline where your breathing is.

What's your resting heart rate?
😊
How is this better than doing co2 tables.
I dont really understand how Oxygen Advantage make videos so boring. I am not trying to be mean, i love the content. Its just unbelievably dry
We are sorry you feel like that. We will take your comments in to consideration though. The last thing we want is for our content to be dry, so we will try and change this.
@@OxygenAdvantage Its so cool that you replied!
To be more specific, i find different videos too similar to one another. This makes me feel like "ive seen one video, i've seen them all"
And another specific problem is that most all effort is on listening. I find it somewhat hard to concentrate for that long. Its almost an audiobook. Engaging vision would probably be beneficial here.
I dont really have all the answers. But i would suggest just experimenting with how you present information.
It’s the calmness of these video’s that keeps me coming back to these videos….
That’s because you’re not supposed to do them in the water. You’re supposed to do them on land.
I got my morning BOLT score up to 44 using breathing techniques while training. You can check out my training videos they are anything but boring.
this is an example:

When I do them I m better at the gym and better at concentration
Funny ! Astronauts, and Submarines function fine at 5,000 PPM why on earth would we want to tolerate more? The highestvever atmospheric CO2 on earth was 6,000 PPM!
To improve blood/oxygen levels @terenceiutzi4003. Oxygen binds better to haemoglobin in the blood in the presence of CO2 (Bohr Effect). Training this improves performance and recovery.
The atmospheric levels of CO2 are largely irrelevant in this case as they are going to change depending on the area you are in. Submarine, stuffy room, open field will all have different levels of CO2 PPM. Also, it is very dangerous to breathe in a space with a 5000 PPM. It would cause sickness, drowsiness and worse. Normal outdoor CO2 PPM levels are 400.
@OxygenAdvantage so you are not talking about CO2 tolerance then?
Is the 30
Seconds of air hunger comprised of 15 in 15 out or 30 in only or what?
Endurance sports
@jorts9426 are these sports held in sealed rooms? No matter how hard you are working, you are still breathing in the same CO2 concentrations and exhaling the same 50,000 PPM. Unless you are in a closed room.the lecture halls in university used to sit around 1200 PPM. We know that at 1400 feet on the side of the volcano on the island of Hawaii, it is at 400 PPM. That active volcano is putting 10 times as much CO2 into the atmosphere as all man made sources on earth. The tree line there is al 9,000 feet and in the Yokon, it is below 3,000 feet. Do the math.
That was a lot of repetitive gibber gabber. Just DEMONSTRATE the breathing exercise so we know what the heck you're talking about.
