I’ve been doing several of your classes and I know they have made a huge impact on my mental health. For me, it has been especially beneficial seeing another man doing yoga and sharing healthy living without the need for toxic masculinity or extreme toughguyness haha Only got 14 seconds though 😅gotta lot more work to do, but I’m content with showing up today. Anyways, congrats on everything! Typically don’t post on many people’s videos like this, but having this moment to breathe encouraged me to do so.

    for me its different every day. When I woke up today, my score was at 33 seconds, now I did it in the evening and it was 23 seconds. I guess thats because when waking up im super relaxed and over the day I get stressed. I think I will add more gentle breathwork with longer holds into my routine before sleeping!

This is a great test that everyone can do, I really appreciate this practices. Also, I enjoyed the previous video too (which there is as well exhaling through the mouth). I believe more videos on breathing 😮‍💨 will explain me the best practices for breathing proper. Keep it up Flo!✌🏽

    Wim Hof breathing can also be done through the nose. For a short time to induce a certain effect as with wim hof breathing, which is really a from of bhastrika and kumbaka, is totally fine as it is intentional and only for this short duration of the practice. Besides those brief practice moment, breathing through the nose and breathing less is the only correct way.

    Thank you so much for this wonderful video! I'm just realizing that the sleep apnea machine that I've been using for 5 years, although has helped with my apnea and has certainly decreased my exhaustion during the day, has not helped me breathe through my nose. I am still breathing through my mouth at night. Probably going to some type of doctor to find out why there are blockages in my nasal cavities keeping me from breathing properly when I lay down will help me improve my life. By the way I failed miserably at the CO2 test LOL 16 seconds

    In looking to cross reference this technique, others who talk about the CO2 Tolerance Test prescribe three full breaths at 3 sec in and 3 sec out then timing how slowly you can exhale until all the air is gone. I found a reference to the BOLT test that sounds very similar to your method but it has you hold your nose closed. I'm curious, in your method, what is the threshold of the impulse to inhale? Just the slightest impulse or thought? How do these two methods of testing compare?

I've been preparing for this exam for over a month. I got back home about two hours ago, and my score on this test was... 13 seconds. I guess I'm still antsy over the exam! I'm super curious to try again tomorrow morning and see if I get a different result.

    Is this more a gauge of breathwork technique as it is something learned: co2 tolerance. Or is it a gauge of underlying stress or where the sympathetic nervous system is at?
