Description

'Sleep Disordered Breathing' has "breathing" right there in the name!  Yet breathing is overlooked as a vital component in treating Sleep Apnea.  Patrick McKeown is a breathing expert and founder of the Buteyko Clinic.  He explains the different types of sleep apnea and how breathing correctly can help address them.
Some things we discussed:

Buteyko breathing - slow, light and deep using diaphragm;
How nasal breathing can help people with Sleep Apnea versus mouth breathing;
Mouth taping to support nasal breathing - specifically Myotape;
The four types of Sleep Apnea;
Patrick’s newest book “The Breathing Cure”.
