Stop seizures naturally in 2-3 min: breathing exercise
This simple breathing exercise was developed by Russian doctors. The exercise was used by thousands of epileptics in Russia. It was taught by about 200 doctors. The exercise can relieve seizures in about 2-3 minutes. (I translated many Russian medical papers.)
If possible, breathe only through the nose during this exercise. If you cannot, learn the breathing exercise to unblock the nose: http://www.normalbreathing.com/Articles-unblock-the-nose.php.
Steps to follow when your symptoms of seizures appear
Sit down for better relaxation. Relax all your muscles. Focus on your breathing. It must be huge. Why? Symptoms of epilepsy are possible only when they breathe 4-6 times more air than the medical norms. You are hyperventilating! (There are 2 known physiological effects of overbreathing: less CO2 and LESS oxygen in the body cells, and over-excited state of nerve cells during seizures is due to hypocapnia or low CO2 level in tissues).
Next, after your usual exhalation pinch the nose and hold your breath only until the first discomfort or stress. Keep the mouth closed all the time. Your breath hold will be very short: only about 4-6 s. (You are hyperventilating and the body has too small amount of oxygen!) Immediately release your nose when you get first signs of air hunger. Now your goal is to maintain or preserve this level of air hunger for a few minutes. How?
Instead of your usual huge inhalation, take a slightly smaller inhalation (about 20-30% less than before) and then immediately relax all muscles, especially upper chest and all other breathing muscles. Take another (smaller) inhalation and again completely relax.
With each breath, take the same small or reduced inhalation and then completely relax. The breathing is frequent during this reduced or shallow breathing but this is OK. If you do the exercise correctly, you will regain control of your brain and body in 2-3 minutes.
Conclusions
Our breathing pattern has profound effects on the human brain and nerve cells. Blood supply, oxygenation, and excitability of the human brain all are greatly influenced by our breathing.

Breathing through the mouth affects many biochemical and physiological processes in the human body. Sleeping on the back can make breathing about 2 times heavier reducing cell oxygenation and triggering sleep apnoea, mouth breathing, headaches, anxiety, panic attacks, and many other problems, epileptic seizures included. There are methods and techniques how to solve these problems. They can be found on my website.
If you retrain your breathing pattern, so that after usual exhalation, you can comfortably hold your breath for 20 or more seconds 24/7, your epilepsy and seizures will completely disappear.
