The first sentence of the posted excerpt speaks of inhaling for a count of five and exhaling for a count of five. A person shouldn’t be able to hyperventilate while breathing at that rate. Try it for a minute or so and you’ll see.

It seems that methelene blue also reduces alzheimers.

Interestingly, cancer is anerobic. Methelene blue provide oxygen to the cells.

Nervous Tick.

Shucks! Time for a good LTC policy! Sounds like you are going to end up in a memory care unit. You have my sympathy!

Controlling your heart rate. Slow breathing controls it, but.... Capt. Obvious stuff. Develop good habits. Pray. Easier if you don't smoke or be an alcoholic or eat Crisco out of the can. Avoid red bull shots or double expressos....of course don't take meth. Don't read the news or watch porn while you do this. Don't do this while driving on urban highways. Do not try this at a Sports Bar.

If you can do this in some natural setting, back yard, a garden, a park. Old white guy thing...go fly fishing or garden. Sit in a Church garden. Or Modern sort of stuff. "Forest bathing (Shinrin Yoku)"; or while sitting in a Japanese Garden. (I know...there are so many of these around. ... Get a screen saver!)

LOL! Touche.

I have an excellent LTC policy. IF they don’t go broke. ;-)

LTCs; And I hope neither of us ever need it!.

I have one for me and my wife. Not sure how good it is. There are better options now for LTCs now than when I got it.

Had a stroke in 2018. Pushed me into retirement. Now I am a gardener and lawn boy.

LTC....I told Misses to not hold off once its needed. Use it as soon as you can.

(Sometimes I sit in the church garden and look at the flower beds where my fellow parishioner are interred. (Cue "Greys Elegy"!))

Mrs Submareener and I use this device. It really helps a lot with breathing after 77.

So, an exercise routine?

[goodnesswins]

Looked at that Hof video...THAT seems like such fast breathing...I would pass out....at least if not walking or running

I must confess I haven’t looked at more than one minute of it. Thanks for doing the research.
