FOUNDER & DIRECTOR
I met this genius of a doctor more than 25 years ago called Dr Len McEwan who got paid to teach people how to re-train their breathing and I was fascinated!
Dr. McEwan was an expert in Chronic Hyperventilation Syndrome and I could relate to some of his work based on the fast pace required to operate in media…an industry i’ve operated in for three decades.
As i learned more, i realised that my sinus problems, food intolerances and eczema as a kid were highly likely the result of being a mouth breather.
I latterly became inspired to study the Buteyko method of breathing re-training in 2010 as set out for me by Patrick McKeown who was a student of Dr Konstantin Butyeko.
Buteyko, himself a chronic asthma sufferer with very high blood pressure, went on to manage then alleviate his conditions by first understanding then applying the value of learning to breathe less.
Yes, the less breaths and the lower the breathing volume you take every minute can have a dramatic positive influence on your productivity and performance.
In terms of my outlook, I have always been an admirer of people in sport, business and life who could operate in an energetic manner yet remain calm.
That’s exactly what investing in Sniff Sigh Yawn’s Composure Programmes offers companies, organisations, their leaders and their people.

One of the most important parts of the process in becoming more productive is gaining awareness of your current state. It is very common for people to be unaware of e.g. how they breathe.
For example, and with regards to performance, if you end your day by sleeping using mouth breathing, you automatically create stress in your system and fight or flight. Think about how that can affect your work and your relationships at work over a prolonged period of time.
