Riassunto

Breathless Sleep...no more is more than a memoir.

It recounts Paul's personal struggle over many years with severe obstructive sleep apnoea. Paul's story takes the reader down a path of anticipation, hope, despair, resolution and then new hope and symptom resolution. Paul recounts his experience with referenced facts giving credibility to his writing and the benefits of breathing retraining.

The reader joins Paul in his exploration of how and why his health improved. The reader is given a clear and concise introduction to the relevant science of this prevalent sleep disorder.

The book takes the reader into the world of a desperate sleep deprived lawyer who did not tolerate CPAP and who undertook a Buteyko breathing course because he was drawn to a natural treatment.

Paul becomes his own case study of his successful control of severe obstructive sleep apnoea. The book includes comparative photographs and before and after sleep studies detailing the degree of apnoea and the impact this was having on his body and the improvement following the completion of the course.

The reader gains a clear insight into the missing pieces from the jigsaw of his respiratory health.

In this 2nd updated edition Paul recounts his frenectomy (tongue tie release) and how it enhanced and further improved his sleep. There is also additional content on Nitric Oxide and the critical role it plays, as the third gas, in our respiratory cycle.

Paul is certified as a Buteyko practitioner with two leading world organisations The Buteyko Institute of Breathing and Health and Buteyko Clinic International.

Su questo libro

Informazioni sugli autori

Paul practised as a lawyer for over 30 years when he developed severe obstructive sleep apnoea. His health was poor until he learned the Buteyko Method. By learning to breathe almost exclusively through his nose and slow down his rate of breathing his symptoms decreased significantly. In 2014 he wrote a seminal account of his journey and published "Breathless Sleep...no more. A compelling case study." This health improvement resulted in him changing his career to become a Breathing Retrainer. He trained with Patrick McKeown and obtained further mentoring and clinical experience from Paul O'Connell from the Buteyko Institute of Breathing and Health. In 2018 Paul published a 2nd edition of his book with a significant contribution from Patrick McKeown. Patrick also wrote the Foreword to the 2nd edition. Paul trained with the Australian Institute of Applied Mindfulness and was certified as a Practitioner in 2019. Paul teaches a Mindful Buteyko Breathing Course.

Patrick McKeown studied under the founder of the Buteyko Method, the late Dr Konstantin Buteyko. He suffered with asthma from an early age until he discovered the Buteyko Method at 26 years of age. He experienced improvement that more than 20 years of medication failed to achieve. This life changing discovery led to a change in in the health of children and adults who suffered from similar breathing problems.
