10. Medication If you take any medications to treat chronic disease symptoms, we often see that as the breathing improves, your chronic disease symptoms will lessen which will eventually reduce your need for medication. So when after a few days, weeks, or months of Buteyko Breathing your health and symptoms have improved significantly, you may find your usual dosage of medication is too strong. When this happens, please visit your doctor and tell him about the symptomatic improvements you’ve been experiencing and ask if it may be suitable to adjust your medication. Also do keep us informed of any big changes in medication taken during the course, as this may affect your Buteyko Breathing practice and scores. 22
11. Making Progress When doing the Buteyko Breathing course, progress can manifest itself in various ways: ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ ◆ Buteyko breathing scores are going up. Chronic disease symptoms are improving. Feeling more energetic, strong, healthy & balanced. Experiencing typical detox and cleansing symptoms. Needing a lower dosage of medications. Some course participants are able to smoothly improve their breathing in less than 2 months from a CP of 12 to more than 40 (view chart on the next page) and experience impressive health benefits and improvements in their chronic disease symptoms. For other course participants, however, the path may be different, with obvious improvements in some areas, while in other areas progress may — for the time being — seem elusive. The point here is that we cannot choose which kind of progress we will experience in what time period. All we can do is keep doing the daily breathing exercises. Sometimes we just need to be patient and steady and give our body some time to adjust so we can make more progress. At other times, however, we may benefit a lot from changing the approach, or choosing another Buteyko level to continue our practice with. It’s your instructor’s job to recognize what’s happening and select a suitable response. 23
