About this episode

CAUTION: Breath hold exercises are only suitable if you are in good health. If you have any concerns, consult your medical doctor before practicing any breathing exercises. You should never practice breath holds if you are in or near water, if you are pregnant, have high blood pressure or any other medical condition. 


If you find yourself struggling regularly with stress, today’s guest has a tool that you can use that will really help. It’s free, it’s easy, and the results can be instantaneous.


Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests. 


Today’s clip is from episode 99 of the podcast with leading international expert on breathing, Patrick McKeown.

Patrick believes breathing correctly is the secret to better health and wellbeing and he has trained thousands of clients, including elite military special forces and Olympic athletes.

In this clip, he explains why our emotions and our breathing are interlinked and he shares some practical tools to help reduce stress and anxiety.

You can even get started right away with some of his techniques as you listen.
