exhale push

Just been reading the liner notes for IC Special - Filisko mentions something called the 'exhale push' on the track Jaybird Moan. Is that a harmonica technique or just a fancy term for breathing out? If it's breathing out, then that's great: it means finally I can do something that Joe Filisko can do!

Here's what Joe had to say, "Hey David, It is not just breathing out but, breathing everything out and gradually letting it back in until relaxed and half full. This is one of my important teaching ideas that relates to using the full range of ones breathing and overcoming the asphyxiation reflex preventing one from doing so."

Wow! Great to get a response from Joe himself! Thanks.
I hear ya! I don't know... haven't heard him use that term before. I'll ask him.
