Patrick McKeown is one of the world’s leading authorities on optimal breathing. He’s also a really cool guy. He’s done some coaching of me and my breathing—for both meditation and sports performance with the Spartan races I’m doing. My life has changed from this book. I’m a huge fan of Patrick and his work. Highly recommend the book—and highly recommend we think more about breathing

Brian Johnson

Founder of Heroic

These are some things that have been helping me on tour and in general, in hopes that maybe some of them might be good for you too... Free-form writing, Transcendental Meditation, the music of Jon Hopkins... and The Oxygen Advantage — it’s great for breathing. These are helping me stay grateful and happy to be alive

Chris Martin

Singer, Coldplay

I just read The Breathing Cure by this dude named Patrick McKeown—and I’m still recovering from what I learned. He’s the founder of Oxygen Advantage, the world’s leading expert on breath. I fast-tracked him onto the show because his techniques are used by Olympic athletes, top executives… and the lead singer of Coldplay

The Mel Robbins Podcast

The Oxygen Advantage was a game-changing read and is one of the top books we recommend at XPT—not only for health and fitness professionals but for any individual looking to optimize the most important processes in their body. If breathing and the breath is the essence of life, and it is meant to be intuitive, then how do we find our way back to basics? Patrick makes this a comprehensive journey that anyone can use and share with their friends and family
