It's all about dosages. Too much of anything can kill you, even water.

Recently I've been experimenting with the methods taught by Hof and find the initial results promising. I have found the basic breathing practice, followed by a cold shower, to be of substantial help in dealing with the effects of heavily interrupted sleep.

Thus far I would offer two caveats though:

1) Pay attention to the warning given that one is NOT to practice the breathing technique while in the water. Apparently a number of people have passed out and drowned because they didn't catch that detail.

2) Be capable of separating out the method from the man. Apparently Hof himself has problems:

Seems like an interesting technique. There's no doubt that 'mind over matter' can produce results, like for healing injuries or for those yogis sitting around in snow drifts who use breathing to dry out wet blankets wrapped around them in freezing temperatures, etc. For them it might be tied to religious practice but I don't think breathing automatically makes it satanic. It might actually be smart for a change.

FWIW

Low Mass - lots of kneeling. I’ve been very uncomfortable doing this and recently found that NOT hunching-down and retaining a more upright posture helps. More so, consciously maintaining a steady, regular breathing pattern helped me immensely (I was falling into apnea before)

Yes, about the breathing. I listened on the radio years ago, coast-to-coast. A women wrote a book on breathing techniques. One was to breath through your nose and out your nose. And she said, breath like this and it is like how you breath when you say a rosary/Hail Mary.

She stated that breathing techniques can help a person out of a wheel chair to walk. We also know that praying the rosary can lower blood pressure.
