Breath Hold Times - July (Post ALL Times here)
The first monthly Breath Hold Time thread - with many more to come. Post your daily breath hold times & share your experiences here. Encourage & congratulate others - we will all be dolphins by the end of the month! We'll pick a monthly winner at random who will win a lucky prize (woo-hoo!). It's not based on how high you score (because... it's YOUR personal journey - so it does not matter if you hold only for a minute and someone else for 3 minutes).

The Day 6 exercise was a bit challenging in two ways. First it was a busy morning with work issues which made it hard to truly relax so breath holds were on the shorter side. Second was that the "exhaled" state seemed to get uncomfortable very quickly. I believe in the exhaled or neutral diaphragm breath hold you are experiencing O2 saturation decline as the trigger to breath more than rising CO2 levels. With my lungs full I was able to do a 1:45 breath hold and for a neutral diaphragm I was only able to reach 1:03. Perhaps more practice with both of these types of breath holds will lead to better future times.
