What is this
The core is the Oxygen Advantage method developed by Patrick McKeown — nasal-only, diaphragmatic, light breathing. Around it, we draw on the De Rose method and yoga traditions for a broader, more complete breath training practice. Calmer in stress, sharper at work, steadier in sport.
Body Oxygen Level Test. A simple breath-hold test that tracks your progress objectively. We measure at the start of every program week so you see the practice working, not just feel it.
Not a library of exercises to figure out alone. A coached 4-week program with daily practices, week-by-week framing, honest feedback after each session, and a clear next step every day.

Stories
Three weeks in, I sleep through the night again. The BOLT measurement made it feel like a real practice, not just an app.

I'd trained with breath holds before but never with this kind of structure. The weekly check-in caught me when I was pushing too hard. My BOLT went from 22 to 31 across the program.

Calm in 5 is the one I use most - between client calls, before meetings. Worth the price for that alone.

FAQ
A breathing protocol developed by Patrick McKeown that emphasises nasal, diaphragmatic, lower-volume breathing and gradually building CO₂ tolerance. The aim is to retrain your body to do more with less air - calmer in stress, sharper at work, steadier in sport. Foundations uses this as its core, expanded with techniques from the De Rose method and yoga for a more complete breath training practice.
