A champion swimmer wanted to improve her ease of breathing and recovery times for multiple general race days
and triathlete events. An opera singer was losing her high notes and sought psychotherapy but eventually just

learned to breathe better and her high notes returned. A classical singer was losing her mid range and regained it

with optimal breathing techniques. An emphysema victim learned that breathing was not what he thought is was,

for over 50 years. It had become a permanent misunderstanding even to the point of doing it improperly when

shown the proper way. Several sessions were needed to change this person’s breathing. An asthmatic was retrained

to breathe easier and the symptoms disappeared. Stuttering and spasmodic dysphonia can reduce or disappear

when one learns to breathe optimally. A shy young lady learned to breathe better. Her shyness lessened and

"I met a man and got married". Some eliminated their sleep problems, hypertension, type "A" responses, wimpy

ways of being. Some increased their energy many fold, told off their suppressive boss, told the truth to their

spouse, opened up to loving themselves, and set boundaries where needed. Some healed from illness or near death.

Dear Mike:
I don't know if you remember me, I came up from KY with my husband Richard. It has taken me long to write this email, but I have thought often how grateful I am to have found your help. I was very depressed and full of anxiety when we met, and I thought I would never be able to function without anti-depressants, but thanks to what you taught me, I feel normal again, I have faced many challenges, but I have done so with my own strength, I am totally free of meds, and it feels great! All those doctors didn't know at all how to help me with my breathing, they had no answers, what a waste of suffering and money! You understood so well my distress and knew how to fix it. Sure there is still room for improvement, I know that if I were more diligent with your training I could be so much better, but I guess I am a little lazy, and I have taken it a lot slower, still my life is so much better!

Mike you are a God sent, thank you so much, from my husband as well!

The way I see it is people can go weeks without food, days without water, and only minutes without air. We put endless amounts of time talking about the fuel efficiency of our cars but the majority of us don't give time of day to the fact that oxygen is a primary fuel of the body.

Oxygen/Breathing efficiency was something I greatly overlooked before going to see Mike White. He has given me a structure and an awareness about breathing that will follow me the rest of my life.

To anyone over the age of 20: Improve the quality of your life! Inhale all of Mike's information on Breathing.com and then as you continue to be intrigued by his work go and spend some time one on one with him. Working with Mike was like meeting my lungs and diaphragm for the first time.

Your always looking for information on what to eat, the best exercises to do, and how to stay looking young. So why not address things from the foundation. Breathing is required for ALL of those things and they will ALL be better utilized once you bring Optimal Breathing into your life.

Mike White is Optimal breathing.

Mike�

I�ve worked as a successful radio, tv & corporate voice-over performer for over 30 years, and ran into vocal difficulties in recent years.

In looking at what was happening, I sought an ENT�s view, and learned there was no physical damage, or condition. That settled, I came to the stunning, surprising realization--a blind spot, really--that I had never been professionally trained, and had simply reached the limits of being self-taught, and had been harming my voice through on-going, regular, uninformed practices.

Working with you over the weekend, I learned my breathing is something I cannot simply take for granted. It is--key. And there are rules.

I came to you, open, for insights and practices, and left without disappointment. You are a very good teacher--you had to be to get through to me.

You have a depth of experience, wisdom from which to share, and a high level of intuition, and listening; the ferocity of a true master; and the skills to deftly place those openings right where they�re needed.

I learned to attend to my breathing in a certain, clearly defined range; tips on how to breathe; physical & vocal practices for opening up and warming up my voice; fun activities to get me to those places (not everything is clinical), and the recognition that the path to express myself, through voice, is, again, as wide and open as I wish it to be.

For the many bad habits I had gotten into, it will take practice, intent, and patience, to cause the new habits.

I�m thrilled, delighted, even relieved, to have been referred to you, and had the blessings of working together, closely, in a focused, intensive way, to help launch the next era for my expression.

Thank you, Mike, for helping me re-gain my voice.

Best,

Josh Cohen

From Mike:

Josh presented with symptoms very similar to Spasdmodic Dysphonia.
He had not be diagnosed but it sounded and reacted quite like a combination of AB and AD SD.

"I have sang and played music for 35 years. I had no idea I was capable of singing with such strength, control, confidence and ease as I have been until after working with Mike for only 5 hours."

From Mike: In Berkeley I got to work with gospel, opera, jazz, blues and pop singers but over the past 6 years having until recently been so isolated near the Great Smokies as I was, it was not often I got to work with musicians. When I do it is always such a treat. It's like working with a very unique and special musical instrument all by itself. You can listen to his "old" voice here. The new stronger, more clear, naturally expressive voice is being recorded and will appear soon. mgw Jerry Harmon

I would like to thank you so much Mike. When I came to you I felt like I was on a verge of having a heart attack or losing mind. I drove 4 torturing hours, it was well worth the 4 hours drive. On my way home I had no panic attacks, which is amazing, I cannot drive in a car for 30 minutes without a panic attack and I drove 4 hours with none. I feel like you have given me part of my life that I thought was gone forever. These panic attacks have been a journey for me, but for once in my life I feel I am on the road to recovery. Thank you again,I will definitely be back .

I�ve been a singing professional for years but you showed me a new way. My power, singing ease and flexibility increased incredibly and I handle levels of voice, fear and energy that would have crushed me just a short while ago.

Flautist
Breath is life, but for the flautist breath is also art. Working with Mike freed tensions that had built up through years of playing so I was able to recover my full capacity, control and ease of expression. I recommend him highly to anyone who wants to maximize his or her breathing capability.
