About this Episode

Liliana and Stephen are joined by Patrick McKeown, author of Atomic Focus, The Oxygen Advantage among several other titles, to discuss the ways poor breathing affects day-to-day living, and hampers our success. Patrick is an international breathing expert and author based in Galway, Ireland, working with members of the military, special forces, Olympic athletes and more.

Success has three key ingredients: focus, concentration, and attention span, and Patrick argues that you can't enter a state of flow if your breathing is dysfunctional. So Patrick shares some techniques you can implement today to keep track of your breathing and your attention span, and advocates techniques covered in early episodes of Wow@Work.
