Coaching
Breathing coaching is designed to help you make small manageable changes to your breathing and easily blend them into your everyday life.
After a breathing assessment, we teach you a set of tools, one at a time, designed to normalize the breathing pattern across all the typical activities of daily life, including work, rest, sleep and exercise, plus how to revert from stress breathing to normal breathing during or after a crisis.
If you're interested in this website, it's possible your usual everyday way of breathing could be abnormal and you likely may not even be aware of how! Poor breathing habits can be subtle, yet significant, potentially setting off a cascade of mental and physical symptoms.

It's frequently the case that family members share a similar breathing pattern. Kids can entrain to their parents biological rhythms when they're in the womb or sitting on laps...feeling the tide of the inhalations and exhalations and mirroring them...
So if a pediatrician or orthodontist has suggested a change in breathing style, that's a great opportunity for the whole family to develop healthier new habits during shared everyday activities such as recreation, meals, and cleaning up.
There are lots of fun, simple games and exercises that families can do all together outside, and in the livingroom and kitchen, to foster awareness and increase their respiratory health.

Breathing Retraining Center offers individual and group training and coaching on self-management techniques to identify and correct poor-breathing habits. Breathing Retraining Center's educational products, courses and coaching are designed to improve breathing skills for people whose issues may be related to habits that have the potential to be improved, as a self-care/wellness activity. Breathing difficulty may be a warning sign of a life-treatening heart or lung condition, infection or other illness. Always check with your doctor about your own situation.
The Buteyko Breathing Technique and other breathing-retraining strategies we teach are an alternative approach and are not the practice of medicine, psychology or a form of psychotherapy, nor are they a substitute for seeking medical or psychological advice from an apporpriate professional health-care provider. We want to make the important distinction between using the Buteyko Breathing Technique and other breathing-retraining strategies for health and well-being and the practice of medicine, psychology or any other licensed health-care profession.
Breathing classes, coaching and other services from Breathing Retraining Center are offered by teachers who are not licensed by the State of California as physicians or other healing-arts practitioners unless so noted. We offer alternative non-medical/non-psychological techniques and our services are considered to be laternative or complementary to the healing arts that are licensed by the State of California.
