My symptoms of coughing completely disappeared after following the Buteyko method of breathing exercises faithfully for six weeks. Initially, I took a two day workshop at the Buteyko Center in Woodstock, New York in July 2010. Their method of instruction was clear and specific: avoid breathing through your mouth, do breathing exercises three times daily and eat vegan including whole grains as you progress toward healing.
I have a way te perhaps eliminating them completely in the future. I consult with a Buteyko practioner every 6o go before my lungs become even more healthy but I have been able to cut my inhaled steroids in half and anticipat weeks or so for feedback and instruction. It requires discipline and hard work to follow the program but well worth not having the coughing symptoms which inhibited me socially and professionally.
Thank you, Sasha, for your good work!

Biography |
Sasha was born and raised in Moscow, Russia. In 1986, she graduated from Moscow State University with a Master's Degree in Journalism.
In 1987, she gave birth to her daughter. The baby was born healthy but one of her breasts was slightly enlarged. A doctor suggested applying ointment. Sasha followed his recommendation but the baby's breast only became more swollen. When the doctor saw the outcome of his wrongful advice, he was shocked to find that a large tumor had formed in the baby's breast and suggested to urgently amputate the breast. Sasha was very hesitant about his advice and sought a second opinion.
She saw a number of doctors but all of them insisted on immediate surgery. Eventually, she managed to make an appointment with a famous oncologist, who had a different idea. "Don't do anything," he said, "and the tumor will disappear by the time the girl reaches puberty." Sasha thought this was great news. "However," the oncologist continued, "the tumor will vanish only under one condition: if your daughter does not become sick until she is a teenager. Any disease, even a simple flu, will make the tumor grow."
Sasha settled on this solution but had no idea how to go about implementing it. All children around her were often sick and this was considered normal.
|
This made her think that the traditional path of western medicine was not going to work in her case and she began looking for alternatives. As an investigative journalist, she began searching for people who knew how to live a healthy and disease-free life.
She found several people who fit this description perfectly. Sasha was fascinated and wrote articles about them. Gradually she became very interested in alternative medicine, a holistic approach, and self-improvement. In 1991, at the very beginning of the Perestroika, she established a newsletter called Inward Path in hope that it would unite people for whom such subjects were as important as they were for her.
Her publication gained an enormous amount of attention because it was the first Russian publication dealing with the topics of healthy lifestyle, self-development, and spirituality. Within a few years, Inward Path Magazine became a national publication with more than one hundred thousand readers. Sasha also opened the first health food store in the country, along with a holistic seminar center. This work gave Sasha an opportunity to meet with many fascinating teachers in Russia and around the world.

This work gave Sasha an opportunity to meet with many fascinating teachers not just in Russia but also all around the world and to study with them. Everything that she learned, she tried to apply to her and her daughter's lives. As a result, her daughter has never been sick and her tumor has disappeared.
Sasha Yakovleva is the author of the Inward Path Anthology, which was published in Russian in 2000. She has also created many radio and television programs about spirituality, the holistic movement, and the human potential.
Over the years, Sasha developed a strong interest in spirituality and became a dedicated student of Tibetan Buddhism. In 2006, she spent a year on Holy Island in Scotland, where she underwent an intensive meditation training in seclusion under the guidance of Tibetan lamas. During that time, she was also ordained as a Buddhist nun.
She has lived in the USA since 1998. In 2007, her husband, Thomas Yakovlev-Fredricksen, became severely ill with asthma, which created another challenge for Sasha. Even though his disease was considered incurable, the Buteyko Method successfully healed it.
Sasha also applied the Buteyko Method. She was able to cure her headaches, serious kidney problem, pain in her joints and others health issues.
In 2009, Sasha became a certified Advanced Buteyko Specialist. For Sasha, the discoveries and the method of Dr. Konstantin Buteyko became a unifying factor for all of the knowledge she acquired over the course of her life from various holistic and spiritual schools. She now lives in Woodstock, NY, and teaches at Buteyko Center USA. She is Executive Director of Buteyko Center USA.
