Nasal Breathing
First I’m 76 years old as I write this
I have been doing nasal for over a year, consciously breathing 24/7, I had almost immediate benefits.
1. I was a nose picker all the time, not anymore, within 24 hours of starting this I stopped, why? Because my nose was completely clear, their was nothing to pick, that’s when I took nasal breathing seriously,
2. Within days my back problems had gone, it was a struggle getting in and out of the car, bending over etc, its immensely better now, not perfect but a massive improvement.
3. No neck or shoulder pain at all, its completely gone.
4. My posture has improved dramatically, no round shoulders, as we sometimes do, we pull our shoulders back to, look more positive and upright, I cant do that now as my shoulders and back are already upright.
5. I have slowed down, I walk around at a nice steady pace now.
6. My well being has improved and I am much more tranquil.
7. I never get anxious any more, I don’t lose my temper or get angry, I’m a lot calmer.
8. I’ve succeeded in sleeping all night with my mouth shut, I sleep like a log, just about every night no disturbance and I’m ofte in the same position I was when I went to sleep.
9. I had old age marks on my hands, very prominent, they have almost gone, some can still be seen but are not sort of lumps like they use to be, I can hardly feel them, my skin is smoother,
My life and well-being are doing very nicely.
This costs me nothing.
Thank you
Walking slower is not necessarily an advantage in my opinion. Of course if it is induced or unduces stress it should be avoided. Otherwise it would just work to increase muscle mass, which should be beneficial.
Any tips for being able to breath through your mouth at night time? its a lot harder than during the day
Tape your mouth before sleeping with 3m micropore tape ,i do ,and sleep deeper since doing so.
farangdee I use 2.5cmx5m Microporous tape and it keeps coming off during sleep.
Things our grandparents would say; "slow down", "gather your thoughts" "close your mouth when u eat" (chew) "listen twice as much as you speak" etc.
True that
Life changing talk 😇
You have 2 ears and 1 mouth. Use them proportionately ;-)
I tried the exercise he has us do towards the end, with a common cold. Been congested for the past 2 days breathing through my mouth the entire time. That exercise just cleared up my nasal congestion faster and even better than any OTC medication I have taken. This is actual medical science. I'm going to try to live my life breathing through my nose 99.9% of the time. Thank you for this Patrick.
Same here been congested with allergies & it cleared my nasal congestion!! Phenomenal thank you for this presentation!!
Same! I used to breathe through my mouth and my mom always used to complain about my smelly breath. I didn’t think I could always breathe through my nose, but after a few days of struggling, I was completely used to it. The only time I breathe through my mouth now is when I’m playing sports intensively or exercising.
Since I was a child I'd breathe through my nose because of asthma. Patrick has inspired me so much and now I breathe through my nose regularly. I established this habit just recently and I can tell that feel of the throat feeling dry and burning is gone when I wake up.
Wtf you gonna do that .1% of the time? It better be through the 👃
If you're still here also look into James Nestor's book "Breath". James using Dr. McKeown as a source and the good Dr. mentions Nestor in his book (I haven't read the full book and am only at chapter two at the time of writing this)
Good talk on mouse breeding.
I did laugh out loud.
I LOLed too! Every time I read it I laugh again.
Take a deep bread !
I've been focusing on my bread and now it's gone mouldy
Blessed are cheese makers. U got a friend in cheeses! If you listen to your subtler breathing thru this method, you'll very likely improve ur hearing as well. Use it and build it (adapted from use it or lose it)
Breathing exercises like this could be taught in grade schools.
@@cannibalmanimal2336 doing our best!
Nahh not really
@@thunderdrake13 Breathing exercise could prove more useful to children then memorizing the state capitals. What is the capital of North Dakota? Is it Bismarck or Pierre?
i’m actually here because of my pe teacher lol
How many things y'all want to be taught in school. Then you'd complain school is a lot of hours long. Maybe teach your own kids a thing or two.
I have used this method for 20 years. It cured my asthma and cat allergy. I now live with 3 housecats.
Bro that Irish accent is so calming and encouraging at the same time.
Kiwi Dude I could listen to Patrick McKeown all day. His voice is soooo soothing. I meditate often and Patrick really has discovered something here. I’m going to pursue his breathing technique more.
Yup that how they get me to drink more at the Irish pub lol.
I guess it`s a Dublin accent :-)

It is just the inability to pronounce the "th" sound that irritates me. Just don't breat trough your troat.
This is amazing. I've being dealing with anxiety/ocd/panic which has led for me to have social anxiety etc. all my life and obsessivness. I've tried taking deep breaths and am not able too and it creates a sense of panic and thinking that I can't live like this anymore. But after watching this and doing the exercise I now get it. I had it wrong all along. No doctor ever told me this. Thank you souch this was a great speech.
What a stupid logic he has used to convince people. We breath faster and deeper when we get stressed, so it's bad for you......its like saying when you face instant fear, you run so running is bad for you....what a logic.... Let me explain to you that running is good if you are running without fear of course......and deep breathing is also very good if you do it consciously and doing it unconsciouly is also good coz that is the instant requirement of the body and mind to provide more oxygen at the time of need. When you get too stressed or angry our body use more energy/oxygen/prana whatever you want to call it.......and that's why we breath fast and if you don't breath fast at that time, it can be harmful for your body and mind. its not possible to breath slow and get angry but its possible to breath deep even if you are not angry to get more oxygen to calm your body and mind. In sanskrit breathing techniques called pranayama....see the link for for more information about benefit of Pranayam.... www.thehealthsite.com/fitness/health-benefits-of-pranayama/
A
Q
google it !
so why do people give you a paper bag to breathe in c02 if you're having a panic attack and breathed out all your c02 by hyperventilating?
I've tried switching from mouth breathing to nose breathing for 6 weeks now after listening to Patrick. It's been an amazing change with better sleep, sharper mind and less upper back pain.
Good work Rosie
@ 9:41 breathing technique begins
Thanks a lot!
The stuff before that also pretty important tho
Thanks from 2020
This Ted Talk left me breathless.
THAT'S FLIPPIN HILARIOUS
Yes, it was breathtaking!
Polite people: "Hello..."
TED: "Shut your Mouth..."
@@eerereps 13 years ago u r og lol
you have just saved my life ted. everyone with anxiety try this. it takes practice but I am completely blown away. this works.
Who the heck is Ted
Lol
His name is Patrick, it’s a TED TALK tho
Ted is talking about breathing
OMG I AM SO EXCITED TO START ON THIS JOURNEY. THANKS FOR SHARING
Michael Shaleen LOL
I am 53 years old with significant breathing problems for the last 15 years. With all the pulmonary doctors I have seen and then people I've seen through holistic medicine , I have NEVER been told any of this! I am furious! My problems could have been minimized significantly if I had heard this years ago. Sadly I am seeing this video 6 years after it was uploaded. All the advice I've been given has been the exact opposite of what I've just learned and experienced just now. I don't know how I will be able to retrain my habits and to not breathe through my mouth and to stop breathing deeply. But rest assured I am going to try everything I can possibly think to do to make these changes. This is life changing information I've just been given. To the author and whomever uploaded this, THANK YOU!!
I just found this info as well! I'm 43 and have 20 years of asthma and sinus congestion. Breathing through my nose is kinda difficult and i've been having all kinds of crazy sensations in my sinuses - pressure, stinging, running / flushing out, watery eyes, almost like an allergic reaction, but they're gettting better every day. And i even did a run with only nose breathing. I think my sinuses are so closed up from years of neglect that it will take time to open them, but already I'm feeling the calming benefits! Good luck!
Kate, it’s not too late. It’s never too late.
It’s time to start mouth taping, chewing hard foods and for more chews than you may be used to, as well as the immediate implementation of Mewing.
Mewing, chewing, and mouth taping can very quickly not only eliminate your mouth breathing, but also completely change your face for the better.
I’m not saying that you’re not already beautiful (I have no clue what you look like), but ALLLL men, women, and children will quickly become more attractive by doing those three things. It doesn’t matter how old you are, either.
You’ve got this!!! 👏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼🙌🏼
You can do it!! ; how is it going ??
I encourage you to not give up! I'm 70 and started mouth taping during sleep a month ago. It has changed everything about my breathing! I go for a walk and don't feel starved for air. Both nostrils are now open all the time ( 50 years with clogged sinuses). I wake up feeling rested. I nose breathe normally now but it took time and discipline, but WOW it's a new life!
The doctors do not know, they are trained by those who wish to sell products. Well done for finding this information. I was your age when I discovered this, I now use it daily and enjoy the practice far more than the products !
I teach Tai Chi and Qigong, each and every lesson begins with " Breathe in through the nose and out through the nose ".
I want to learn tai chi and qigong.please guide me
Breathing through my nose has pretty much eliminated my heart palpitations. This is life changing.
This deserves SO much more views , more talks and a larger real life audience.
For the last year I have been very grateful every day that I came across Patrick's books . Having struggled with terrible anxiety problems which effected every area of my life for the last 30 years. I have realised after doing the reduced breathing exercises I was in fact overbreathing and results have truly been life changing.
I used Buteyko breathing to heal from epilepsy. It is an awesome technique. I never get sick anymore. My story is available on Amazon in the book Seizure Free - Addressing the Causes of Seizures Naturally. Love Buteyko breathing. It helped me so much!
Hi Melinda, great to hear your testimonial and how Buteyko has changed your life.
Thank you
Placebo effect. Nothing helps me breathe better. I've tried everything. No medical or psychological causes either.
so happy for you patrick. keep it up!
Another master class from Patrick, delivered in his usual euridte manner and as always complemented by that wonderful Irish Mysticism.
Thank you Patrick for this video because in all honesty, it has made a big difference in how calm it makes me feel and also it helps me gather my thoughts properly. Thanks again.

Good work on getting a TED Talk Patrick!
Thank you very much Patrick and this channel.
thank you Patrick, loved watching and practising this youtube again
After a week, I did see a huge difference too! I too, wake up alert...even on mornings when I have to be at work as early as 5 am. Also, no more chronic fatigue where I felt the need to stretch or fear my productivity was going to hurt my performance of any kind. I'm also calmer!
this is the truth
the whole truth.
I have had MUCH relief.
thank you for sharing.
Butyko said this also.
great video.
shared it
with my ailing friends.
thank you
was having an episode typed in to get calm this came up I'm now relaxed amazing thankyou
Oh my God I feel amazing after this! Well done sir! I'll be sharing this.
I breathe through my ears have done since I was young. So glad I have found your video I will def switch to nose breathing
LOL
what was that? i couldnt smell you!!

This actually helped me more than any other Ted talk that discussed breathing.
Excellent bro ,we needed more of this kind 🙏
Thank you Patrick, this talk is a gem that we all need. I am a breath 'beginner' and can already feel the difference simple mindfulness in breathing evokes. I truly believe pursued correctly and robustly, it could be profoundly impactful in health, beauty and longevity.
So glad I found this video and this method Patrick. It seems crazy this isn't more widely known. My son with asthma has been mouth breathing and had sleep apnea and this method has made such a postive difference. Also we are all sleeping much better now we have been practising nasal breathing. Great info, thanks for sharing the knowledge 👍
Thank you Patrick, a wonderful talk everyone should watch. Let's all learn how to breathe properly, a true foundation for a happier, healthier, and longer life.
I am a 55 year old mouth breather. You have finally given me hope. I will practice this, as well as share this with my sisters children having there own children. I am sure that it will save them a lifetime of struggle.
How has it worked??
hello! make sure that they keep their tongue on the roof of their mouth.
@@elaakbas2740 mewing
@@elaakbas2740 Indeed! Make sure they keep their tongue on the roof of their mouth. As much as possible. For the rest of their lives.
When i am on the treadmill at the gym i have taught myself that i can slow my heartbeat down simply by breathing naturally, but consciously pushing out more air at the end of each exhaled breath, then just breathing in naturally. it helps me focus and brings my heartbeat down anywhere from 2 to 5 bpm. it’s interesting to hear someone talk about this. i have been doing it for years. It seems to help with my training.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Fantasic! Well done, Patrick.
You can be a nose breather during the day and still have your mouth open at night. I found this to be true with myself. I am a nose breather, but in certain positions particularly, my face and jaw would relax so much my mouth would fall open. And I noticed that both my mouth and my nose were so dried out in the morning. Also, just constant leg movement, so I was never getting into that deep, restorative sleep that we must have for healing and clarity. So I found out about mouth taping. Took awhile, and making some other dietary changes but it's making a difference in the quality of my sleep. So don't think this doesn't apply to you if you are a nose breather during the day.
Diane Watson mouth taping really works.
I'm a mouth taper as well. My sleep is so much better. Without tape I'm a zombie the next day.
I notice that if you eat before bed, that gets a lot worse. The blood sugar changes at night. I don't think the capacity to metabolize sugar is very effective at night.
How about if ypu have Sleep Ania? Can you suffocate in your sleep?I took Melatonin and Sleeping pills,because I cant sleep? Appreciate your reply.
@@ramonitodaquiljr2286 I’d like to know this too. But I think your body will naturally wake you up if you’re suffocating in your sleep 🤔 at least I’d like to hope so anyway!! Lmao
This man is really on to something big - less is more... indeed! I have been practising for only a short while and I'm just amazed - Nose breathing was quite a strange feeling at first but you adapt quickly.Excellent advice.
Hi Stuart, great to hear you are adapting to nose breathing. Visit our website www.ButeykoClinic.com for additional resources or our TH-cam Channel Buteyko Clinic for free video content. Drop us a line at info@buteykoclinic.com if you have any questions.

Better late than never at all.
Buteyko breathing saved me when I suffered from hyperventilation syndrome for more than a year as a student in the UK. Totally recommend
Thanks. Great and important presentation.
I’m here because of his London Real interview this morning.
Incredible video Patrick your work is incredible and will shape the next generation of my young family outstanding
Thanks Michael
I'm sold! This guy is awesome
This guy is awesome. Thanks
I have practiced and it works . This is amazing. Thank you for great advices.
This is absolutely phenomenal. As a fellow Patrick who's had (nasal) breathing problems all his life - thank you.
I've been breathing through my nose for the past hour+ and I already feel much better in doing so. I initially wasn't even able to properly breathe through my nose - or so I thought - beforehand, and now it seems to be much easier. Using the nodding up and down Buteyko technique helped me unclog my 1 nostril. The nostril continues a bit clogged but it seems that I can now breathe through my nose better anyway, even if just through only 1 nostril.
Breathing through my mouth felt and still feels like I'm slightly fighting for air, whereas nose-breathing feels more tranquil; smooth; serene.
The beauty and power in simple solutions never ceases to deliver.
I just wish I had known about this since I was a little child. I'm 26 now.
I'm looking forward to bringing this up to my doctor.
profound and transforming...thank you Patrick:)
Thanks for the video!!
This man is wonderful. Hilarious and informative.
Such an awesome talk. Goes well with James Nestors book “breath”
life saving info thanks great talk
I read Mr. McKeown's book "Asthma Free Naturally" years ago and it literally changed my life in a few days. Closing your mouth, control pause, clearing your nose, etc. I am revisiting this a few years later so I can improve my habits. Thanks!
Thanks for your comment Ernest - it is vital to re educate your breathing for alleviation of asthma symptoms. Patrick
hey, any improvemnts?
Hey pall, how you doing after 6 years
@@MHG796 Doing good! So glad I read about Butekyo back in 2010. I was just showing someone the nose clearing technique a few days ago. The only asthma issues I have is if I am around cats. And now I meditate and focus on the breath which re-enforces my breathing. I think the biggest thing that has helped me is the exhale and pause. It comes natural, and I feel great doing it. CO2 is your friend.
Great Ted talk Patrick, even more people are waking up now to the power of their own breath.
Thank you.
Thanks to the amazing power of Listerine. It's the only effective solution for halitosis.

really really good.
I'm 19 and I'm glad I found it!
This was PROFOUND. Thank you and God bless💐
Awesome synigyu
This helped a lot, thank you and God bless you.
In my 60s I have come to doing this very naturally. I take less than half as many breaths as my wife, and I am generally very calm. When I was exercising more vigorously in my younger days, my body insisted on both faster and deeper breaths; now, no longer needed. And most of the time my nose is very clear and quiet. In my youth I was primarily a mouth breather, out of necessity: my nose was plugged most of the time. That situation improved a lot when I stopped drinking milk.
Good talk, Patrick.
I also am less congested after eliminating dairy from my diet.
Through listening to Patrick on Dr Chatterjee's pod casts I am now a convert to nasel breathing. I had a dried out tongue, whilst sleeping, breathing through my mouth. Now using mouth tape which has 'closed' my mouth, this has led to saliva surrounding my palate and lo and behold my tongue is getting better. Thank you Patrick.
AWESOME MAN GOOD JOB IVE BEEN BREATHING THRU MY NOSE IN AND MY LIFE THANKS GOD
Thank you, the slowed breathing exercise feels like singing when you do it right. Singing or humming is so therapeutic and calming. Low volume but dense with oxygen. It's feels tingly and warmer, good. I myself have no problem with breathing, I guess because I've always been singing and humming. But you worded and guided the final exercise amazingly.
breathing is good. especially for anxiety and panic attacks ,breathing in holding both nostrils and covering nostrils
I like such talks/videos, practically useful, and you can notice physical effects within minutes.
Thank you kind sir. This was very helpful
Warmer. Neato. Thank you!
Excellent - I bought the book anxiety free and I has really helped me I still cannot do a proper control pause of more than 16 seconds but my breathing has slowed down. Thank you Patrick.
People with anxiety/ depression should stay clear of caffeine it has a habit of making them feel worse.
Very informative and useful ♥️
JUST DISCOVERED THIS AND OMG DUDE YOUR A LEGEND!! FROM GALWAY TO!! I LITTLERY LOVE YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH
Interesting breathing techniques. Must explore!
thank you , i am severe ME CFS and housebound , been so hungry for air for so long , you are giving me the awareness i need as spent my time deep breathing and holding my breath when standing , ive only just found you but i’m listening and working ok it , thank you x
It isn't air that you're missing. It's wasting carbon dioxide that you exhale.
I went to sleep :) on my desk doing this breathing exercise. Thank you.
So true amazing impressive soul. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
Thank you so much. ✝️ God bless you
I’ve been mouth taping for about three months and I can honestly say that I see the difference. First my mouth is no longer dry and my lips also not dry. I feel like I sleep better. It has also help be to not breath through my mouth during the day. I see a difference
me too
I have this mouth breathing issue....
I had the asthma issue in the childhood ...but even though i tried to breath through nose at day time i cant resist at night while sleeping ..its like am going out of breath while using my nose to breathe...i breathe a lot and my heart rate is always above 120 bpm

Wow, this is amazing. I've been taping my mouth shut for several months to lower blood pressure, maybe this will help too.
You don't know how much I needed this . Why is this not common knowledge .
Friggin great talk!! 👃🏽
I have been practicing this for nearly a year, I had a total thyroidectomy and my vocal cords were damaged and they dont open or close properly, I try to do the contol pause but the most I can do this is 15 - 20 seconds, and I start to panic. After my operation I woke in the night with my vocal cords shut over my windpipe - I could not breath - I had to cough and cough to release them. I think this may be why holding breath is a problem for me. I have mastered the nose breathing and I know my oxygen levels are good 98/99 but I worry about the control pause. I have your book breathing and anxiety and it has helped enormously thank you Patrick
Thanks Sally, the control pause is a measurement appraisal only. Focus on slowing down and softening your breath to activate the relaxation response and to improve oxygen delivery to the cells. This is key. Patrick.
Thank you Patrick - I know this has made such a difference to me, really appreciate your videos and your CD that I play when I need to relax.
Buteyko can help with people who have voice disorder?
Best Ted talk ever.......
Patrick tank you for ever and ever. 2 years now and my life has changed permanently!
can you write more about it?
I don't speak lightly when I say that this is one of the most profound videos I have ever watched. The subversion of conventional breathing logic had immediate effects which I have sought - knowingly or otherwise - my entire life.
I know that such a gushing endorsement might seem questionable, but I have no links to Patrick McKeown. I simply implore you to invest in his exercises demonstrated in the video.
This has the almost-inevitable potential to be life changing for me and for that, I thank you, Patrick.
YES. I AGREE. HE IS SAVING LIVES. I AM SO EXCITED TO START ON THIS NOSE BREATHING JOURNEY
@@mdougf hows it been so far mark
I love Patrick's youtubes! After listening to a health professional telling people to exhale through the mouth, I sent them one of Patrick's talks to no avail. Health professionals should know that the body's processes are functional-- with physiological effects from every nuance and habit--but they don't! Frustrated. BUT Patrick's telling us the good stuff, encouraging us to become aware of the effects of changing our habits! We can do this. It's our bodies, and we have the power to shift if we give patterns the smallest attention and guidance. Thanks so much!!! I'll check out the Buteyko Institute.
In yoga we breathe in and out through the nose, the breathing practices are called pranayama, there are many of them for different results 🙏🏻 Love your research, it’s helped my running abilities 👍 I’m about to start reading your book, I’ve just finished Breathe by James Nestor.
which was better this guys book or nestors
What confused me at the beginning of this talk he says the exact opposite. I've never been taught in yoga or pilates not to breathe through the nose. Was expecting more comments like yours....
@@Eternalduoaeno it’s more that they teach you breathe in through nose and out of mouth. Just breathe through your nose. I’m Irish and let me tell you we think on a different level
are you clear ( as I am not) on belly breathing or chest? Ideally we want belly. But he doesnt say? as yoga person, fellow, thought I would ask you, hope you dont mind. How was Breathe book by Nestor? aligned with this advice or different? Lastly, is pranayama breath by nostril/hold -how does that differ? (different technique but slows breath, curious as to how it differs in CO2 production) , sorry, curious yogi clinician.........thanks!
This is a miracle This guy is amazing 👏 so much energy since breathing through my nose
This is gonna save me a lot of trouble. Thank You
I have a constant need to breathe in deep, and if I cant that deep breathe after a few tries, i start to have a panic attack, even when watching this video i was a bit anxious, but then I started doing his technique and my anxiety went away.
I had the EXACT same problem. His work is life-saving. Literally.
Thank you! I’m 48 years old and have always been a mouth breather. I was never told this was bad for me. When I was a kid a few doctors told me (at regular dental or other checkups) that I had a deviated septum. I was like ok...they never said anything else other than that and then moved on. I didn’t even know what a septum was! Now I know. I have so many issues do to mouth breathing that I never knew: grinding teeth, clicking jaw, terrible sleep, v-shape teetht/jaw instead of u-shape. I’m so pissed off that my doctors never said anything like, “we need to fix that”. All they said was, to a ten year old kid who’s parents had no idea either, was “you have a deviated septum”. Nothing else. They just left it at that and moved on to other things. I’m contacting an ENT doctor this week to see about fixing my septum. I simply can’t get enough oxygen through my nose.
Hey man did you get the septum fixed??
@@zaczifer9721 No I never did. I'm trying to avoid it by consciously breathing through my nose as much as possible. I did see an ENT doctor and he recommended I try Flonase lol for a while which amazingly seems to help a bit. I haven't gone back to him but I should.
These videos saved people lifes!! I can't say Thank you enough!!!
Thanks so much! I’ll do it!

meereslicht do i need to practice it every time?
Excellent
Thank you!!!
Thank you for sharing the video. As a child already I was ver curious about rhythms and experiences of different states of Consciousness e.g. Just by continuing to do rose skippinge in a very relaxed way and also from experimenting softly with swimming under water and using a " meditative" breathing
All breathing is related to feeling, emotion, focussing, acting - or just to states of Consciousness and body-mind-thought-relations - and my curiosity ended with a Phd investigating different body/ movement techniques and
States of Consciousness ...
And Yes of course we can change our blood circulation, just by awareness and by slowing down your breath -
And make it into a very light and soft feeling of "floating" : inhalefloatinginstillness - exhalefloatinginstillness -
And the feeling of floating in stillness is also a door to limitless bodyexperience and total presence
