Learning the Buteyko method by modules

1-B. Theoretical studies (at least 2 hours)

Why does your theoretical preparation matter? You are going to have better results in improving your health and body oxygenation, if you have a better understanding know about ideal breathing patterns, CO2 effects, body oxygen test, and other topics explained on this site.

Let me also quote our teacher Doctor Konstantin Buteyko, who in his practical manual wrote, (Buteyko KP, The method of volitional elimination of deep breathing [Translation of the Small Buteyko Manual], Voskresensk, 1994.)

The patients study the theory within 1 to 3 days, then their knowledge is checked and they are given marks according to the 5 point scale system. There exists a direct interconnection between the level of the theory assimilated and the effect produced by the treatment. Quick-witted patients begin to reduce the depth of respiration independently and manage to improve their condition.

Such patients who have undergone deep-respiration tests and assimilated the theory with an excellent mark are allowed to proceed with the second stage of training. Those who have not understood the theory will continue the studies...

Doctor Buteyko devoted the whole section of his manual to this factor. You can read it here: Assimilation of Theory, Extracts from Buteyko K. P., The Buteyko method or method of volitional elimination of deep breathing [Translation of the Small Buteyko Manual], Voskresensk, 1994.

How you can get educated? There are 3 options:

A. You can get educated using my YouTube playlist "Buteyko breathing" lecture-lessons. My channel has this URL: http://www.youtube.com/user/artour2006. The descriptions and titles of my video clips can be found here. It is important for your better understanding that you watch video clips in the right order: 01, 02, 03, etc.

B. You can also study the Education section of this website. (This is what it is created for.)

C. You can buy and read my small e-book "Oxygenate yourself: breathe less" which contains main theoretical ideas about the Buteyko method.
