I discovered OA after reading Patrick’s book ‘The Oxygen Advantage’, for me this was a light bulb moment that answered a whole range of questions I had about my own breathing and sleep habits.
As a shift worker, my family and I noticed that I struggled with getting quality sleep on a regular basis. I have now implemented the strategies from the book and my sleep quality has improved dramatically.
As an endurance athlete and a coach, I saw the value in controlling my breathing whilst in training, racing and recovery.
I have used these same principles in my career as a Firefighter.
Under pressure situations, under stressful situations and in situations when I am wearing Breathing Apparatus.
Being able to control my breathing and stress levels has allowed me to focus on the task at hand and make clear and accurate decisions.
I am happy to work one on one with clients or they can email or WhatsApp me to find a suitable way to enjoy the benefits of the training.
