• If Buteyko’s indicator level of your health – breath holding time is below 40 seconds

This Technique is for you!

You may check your breath holding time called Control Pause (CP) by simple breathing test:

1. Relax and breathe gently through your nose for 3 minutes
2. After your regular exhale pinch your nose and hold your breath
3. With the mouth closed, use a stop-watch or second hand to check time until the first light feeling of air hunger.
4. Let go of your nose and continue to breathe as you breathed before the test.

The assessment is:
a. 60 sec. or more – you are absolutely healthy
b. 40-60 sec – you have a good health
c. below 40 sec.- you have some visible or hidden problems
The lower your Control Pause the worse your symptoms

• If you don’t have any symptoms listed above and you’d like to maintain or improve your overall health
