About Breatheasy
 My
name is David O´Hara. I
created the Breatheasy System and founded
The Low Pressure Zone in late 2005/early 2006 after several years of
development and testing my own system combined with music.
I did not invent slow breathing. The
breathing method I use is for Breatheasy is well established and
clinically proven. But after learning slow breathing on my own by using
it along with relaxing music I knew that my method was much easier,
more enjoyable and more affordable than the commercial products
available until now.
My story:
I was totally shocked when I discovered
in my mid-40s that I had high blood pressure. I had always been fit and
active with a totally laid-back personality. I was no saint but you
could say I had a fairly healthy lifestyle.
Naturally, my doctor wanted to put me on
medication immediately but I resisted. I'm not at all anti-medicine and
I'm happy for the lucky people that find a solution to their
hypertension in drugs. But I've seen first hand the ordeal it can be to
find the right drug and dosage for hypertension. I also know that every
drug has side effects. I was determined to find an alternative!
The
natural treadmill
Like many people, the
first thing I did
was get on the net to look for natural cures. There sure are a lot out
there! I tried just about all of them and nothing ever worked. Most
natural "remedies" are fads, fueled by the Internet (probably fueled by
profits too. Have you seen the price of some of that stuff?).
A few people
always seem to get
sensational results with something and rave about it. But the
rest of us are disappointed time and time again. I ended up feeling
like treating high blood pressure with "remedies" is little better than
taking shots in the dark.
Struck out
with
lifestyle too...
Despite
everything, my blood pressure
just kept creeping up. So even though I was already in pretty decent
shape I buffed up my lifestyle to the max and followed every
recommendation. It had no effect. Apparently, my hypertension was not
lifestyle related and I know now that a lot of people have similar
experience.
Of course, the first thing you should
look at when you have high blood pressure is lifestyle. For many people
just making some healthy changes will solve the problem. On the other
hand, lifestyle modifications take a lot of time, patience and, even
then, results are unpredictable.
At
last, a real alternative!
I was getting desperate and it was
starting to look like drugs would be my only option after all. Then one
morning I was watching one of those TV talk shows and I saw an amazing
report on a new, natural method to lower blood pressure
using breathing. The guest doctor called it a real
breakthrough in natural blood pressure treatment.
I'm a natural skeptic but something
about this method struck a chord in me. I had used breathing for
relaxation and other purposes and I knew how powerful it is. I just
didn't know that it could actually produce lasting
drops in blood pressure. I was also surprised at how easy it was - only
15 minutes a day - and with none of the complications of yoga and
meditation, which I must confess I lack the patience for.
So it was back to the net where I
learned everything possible about this new method and began
experimenting with it. I soon learned that the boredom or distraction
from counting or following any sort of timing device killed the whole
process. After a while I was able to internalize the right breathing
pattern and use it while relaxing to gentle music.
Slow
breathing: a genuine breakthrough
This finally developed into a pleasant
and regular routine and the rest is history. The results
were simply amazing!
Once I had my technique down I
experienced immediate drops in my blood pressure, although at first the
effect lasted only a short time. But I knew something was up due to a
growing sense of relaxation and peace of mind.
The feeling was justified because the
reductions started lasting progressively longer with each passing day.
Within about two weeks at least some of the reduction was lasting all
day.
In seven weeks most of my readings were
down below the "official" borderline of 140/90, around the clock, and
they continued falling. Occassional spikes do still happen but for all
intents and purposes my hypertension is cured!
Just breathe
easy...
I feel a little like the Remington
shaver guy who was so impressed with the product that he bought the
company! I was so impressed with slow breathing and my own innovation
that I knew it could help others too and I created the Breatheasy
System.
I´m very pleased to say that
after almost three years in commercial production and many many happy
customers my confidence is entirely justified! We have just released
our third major upgrade with many new improvements that make Breatheasy
even easier and more enjoyable to use.
Of course no treatment is 100% effective
(if someone tells you so run in the opposite direction!). The vast
majority will get many important benefits using Breatheasy. The number
who do not is so small that I'm able to offer a six-month
unconditional guarantee.
So
why not give Breatheasy a try!
