This conversation is with Tyler Huston. Tyler is a high performance coach with additional training as a first responder paramedic, addictions nurse, and respiratory specialist. He has spent years as a breathing coach working with clients and patients from all walks of life from physicians and professional athletes, to military and special forces trainers and first responders. All of these experiences have allowed him to refine his breathing coaching practices and develop the Breath Control Training Program. His Breath Control Training program consists of proven principles, exercise, and techniques to increase performance, facilitate and support recovery as well as enhance resiliency.

  • Underwater meditation through freediving
  • How the breath can help us become responsive (vs reactive)
  • Re-learning to breathe efficiently
  • Aspects of modern life that have changed how we breathe
  • The mouth is for eating and the nose is for breathing
  • Most people are actually overbreathing
  • Why you should improve your carbon dioxide threshold
  • Using breath as medicine for mental health
  • Learning “relaxation on command”
  • The connection between inspiration, exhalation and heart rate variability
  • How our everyday resting breath should feel like a flowing wave
  • Using a long, audible exhale to abort panic and anxiety
  • Simulation of high altitude oxygen training through breath holds
  • Performance benefits to athletes
  • How to enhance flow with breathing
  • Activating the mammalian dive response (to lower our heart rate)
  • Using nature to amplify the effects of breath training
