Post Your Breath Hold (Week 19: May 4th - May 11th 2026)
With a huge influx of new faces - hi everyone! - it is time bring out one of the classics. Stig's 2nd appearance on the TEDx stage was a big one. Not just because of the title, Breath Holding is the New Black. Or, how he talks how breath holding & breathwork provides a natural solution for PTSD. No, it is because it is a miracle that we can even watch the video as it is today. The recording took months, and several emails back and forth, to get published. And when it finally did, it was flagged and stated that the talk was not supported by "legitimate" science. Ironically, all in the same year a Nobel prize was awarded for the discovery of how cells sense and adapt to oxygen availability. If you have already done the challenge, you likely have already experienced difference, peer approved or not. So, lean back, and enjoy!

Day-2 1:25, after the 10 deep inhale and restricted exhales. Picked up about 15seconds. Really focused on relaxing during the preparation breaths. Getting there!

Day 3: 1:28, 1:45, 2:00 I was definitely inhaling and holding with too much force day 1 and 2, I’m used to breath holds on empty. Found a more comfortable inhalation percentage and let myself relax more in my seated position.

The breath comes first, the movement follows. This is the mantra that you keep in your mind. With every breath you take. With every step you take. Breathing and breath holding go hand-in-hand. We have been doing a lot of work to improve our breath holds to improve our breathing. Now, with this morning workout, we can work on our breathing to improve our breath holds (or just simply our breath-body coordination, energy and overall health). Watch the video; and try the routine one morning. Let us know how you feel. Oh - and keep doing those breath holds. They still help too! P.S. For those that got up early in the morning on Sunday and already participated in real-time; I salute you!

We interrupt this breath hold program for the following announcement... The door to the 8-Week Instructor Program with Stig Severinsen is closing in 36 hours. Once the door is closed, it won't open until next year (and we are not sure about the dates - so it could be a full 12 months from today!) Go to breatheology.com or click the link below. Do you want to: - Learn how to master your breath holding techniques from the first person to hold their breath under water for 20 minutes and become like the Human Dolphin? - Understand & optimize CO2 tolerance using the same techniques that helped top athletes like Holger Rune (previously ranked #4 tennis player in the world), Viktor Axelsen (2x Olympic champion & 2x world champion badminton and Rene Holten Poulsen (4x Olympic kayaker) - Master the full 360 degrees scope of breathing and how our body & mind is connected through the lungs (unlocking our ability to increase control our heart rate & stress levels through the breath) - Train with Stig Severinsen for 8 full weeks and ask questions to him (& exciting guest speakers) directly during the weekly calls? Catch up with the Breath Hold Training replay to get more information what this training is all about (plus some answers to common Breath Hold training questions). See you Wednesday! OK... now you can go back to the daily breath holds 🐬

1:10, I regularly do 2-2:30 and have done a 3 min breath hold practicing WHM breathing. The 1:10 is a bit humbling! Here we go!

Hey everyone! Donald Bradley here! I’m currently enrolled in the breatheology instructor course. I’m a certified Wim Hof method instructor already with a thirst for knowledge. i read breatheology a while ago and loved it. I integrated some of his techniques into my own practice and love to share them with others. My goal here is to bring my breath holds to a consistent 3 min and be able to break the 4 min mark.
