About
This story describes my struggle with severe obstructive sleep apnea and my success in controlling this debilitating condition. My book begins by discussing what sleep apnea is, and why it is a problem for both the individual and for society. For many decades, I was unaware of my condition. I recount those incidents where sleep apnea regularly impacted my mental and physical health.
Many people are unaware of the poor quality of their sleep. In fact, when an apnea finishes, it is accompanied by a gasping inhale that drags sleepers to near consciousness though they often remain asleep. This explains why it often takes a long time for sleepers to accept that they have an issue that needs to be investigated.
The initial denial of my condition led to treatment by conventional means, before I discovered a scientifically based method of breathing. The listener is taken down a path of anticipation, hope, despair, resolution, and then new hope and symptom resolution. My story discusses some of the physiological aspects of our respiratory system and the science-based methods that enabled me to significantly control the effects of sleep apnea.
