He REALLY needs to be evaluated by a doctor. This could be very serious or it could be narcolepsy. This could be dangerous if her were driving when he fell asleep.
If he refuses to go to a doctor, call an ambulance the next time it happens.
Take care.
I'm with bsml.
The next time this happens call an ambulance.
Tell him to do this pranayam, twice a day, everyday and increase the timing to 20 minutes, a little at a time. Let me know how he feels after 21 days.The extra oxygen going into the body, will help the healing process. You also do it with him, and feel the benefit.
Build up your timing gradually.If you feel tired or dizzy, stop and resume after one minute.
