    Benefits Of Proper

    Breathing

    Introduction

    Breathing the right way, is used to heal all sorts of common health problems. Using

    breathing to cure, has been used for thousands of years, by scientists, health-gurus and

    doctors.

    Did you know that over 70% of the waste in our bodies are eliminated through our

    breathing and our skin? Breathing properly

    provides oxygen to our blood stream which

    then gets passed through our bodies to our

    organs and brain. When our blood is rich with

    oxygen, it becomes very difficult for bacteria

    and viruses to grow in our bodies. It also provides energy to our muscles, which

    supports muscle growth.

    However, since we have ignored breathing as being beneficial and part of the healing

    process, in times of distress we tend to hold our breath. We have become so numb to

    the fact that we live on oxygen and it basically rules our lives that we only use 20% of

    our breathing capacity. This means we are really only using 20% of our energy capacity.

    The good news this book can change all that.

    So what can breathing properly do? Well, it can heal tons of common health problems.

    Without visiting the doctors or taking any medicine.

    Benefits Of Proper Breathing

    Proper breathing does wonders for your whole body. Not only does it help your

    circulatory system, but it also improves your nervous system, digestive system and even

    your physical appearance.

    Below are the benefits that proper breathing can have on your body:

    The Respiratory System

    Releases tight muscles in chest, which decreases the risk of a heart attack

    Opens chest up to make breathing easier, this also increases the amount of

    oxygen that gets entered into the lungs, and the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2)

    that is released during exhaling promotes proper breathing which in turn

    provides more oxygen to your bodies organs, increasing overall body energy

    The Circulatory System

    Increases flow of oxygen to organs in the body

    Using Oxygen To

    Cure

    Oxygen is an important part of living, without it we wouldnt be walking around or be

    able to do any of the things we love.

    This is something we all take for granted every day. And like we mention in the last

    chapter its also something that can easily heal a lot of the common health problems we

    face today. So how do we use oxygen to cure? Easy! Follow the breathing exercises in

    this chapter to change your life for good.

    Just by taking 15 minutes out of your busy day to do some

    deep breathing can give you all the energy you need for

    the full day! Its amazing and its something the whole

    family can do. Follow the three exercises below and watch

    as you gain more energy and your health problems

    disappear.

    Breathing Exercises

    Before we begin with the breathing exercises there are a few things we need to cover.

    Below is a list of guidelines that you need to do to get the most of the breathing

    exercises:

  • 13

    1. Control Pause and Pulse Check:

    To begin each breathing exercise, we encourage you to check your pulse and

    control pause time and write down your results. At the end of each exercise,

    check your pulse and control pause time again. Your pulse should be lower and

    your control pause time should be longer.

    How to get your Control Pause Time: Your control pause time is the length of

    time you can easily hold your breath for after exhaling. You should not be

    gasping for air, when you start to breath normal again. This is just the length of

    time it takes before you feel short of breath and need to inhale.

    2. Posture:

    Good posture is important while preforming the breathing exercises. It ensures

    you are preforming the exercises correctly and helps to successfully enhance your

    breathing. If seated is preferred during the exercise, you will need a tall, straight-

    backed chair. Make sure your feet rest comfortably on the ground while your

    back is against the chair. You want to sit tall throughout the whole exercise. If you

    did not have a straight-backed chair, you may sit on any chair as long as you are

    constantly focusing on have a straight back with your head, shoulders, and hips

    perfectly aligned.

    3. Concentrate:

    Its important to stay focused during the breathing exercises. Close your eyes and

    concentrate on your breathing. Focus on the feeling of the air moving in and out

    of your nostrils. Focus on the different movements of your body when you inhale

    and when you exhale.

    4. Relax:

    Allowing your mind and body to relax is key to improving your breathing. Your

    shoulders are what hold your stress the most, and the more stress you have the

    harder it is to breathe. Allow your shoulders to relax into their natural position

    during each breath.

    Monitor Air Flow:

    During your exercises check the amount of air flowing through your body. To do

    this place your finger lightly under your nose so it is parallel to the floor, just

    under enough to feel the flow of the air while exhaling. Do this a couple times

    during the exercises to monitor any changes in air flow.

    6. Take A Break:

    After each exercise and before starting another exercise, its important to take a

    few minutes to recover. Allow your mind and body time to accept the breathing

    exercise as a form of breathing for future reference. Eventually you will notice you

    can do these breathing exercises anywhere, at home, at work or waiting for your

    kids in the parking lot.

    Breathing Exercise #1: Three Part Breath

    This is the easiest of the four exercises, as it can be done anywhere.

    Step 1: Stand or sit comfortably with your eyes closed. Take a deep breath in through

    the nose and concentrate on your abdomen as it expands out like a balloon.

    Step 2: Continue to inhale. Concentrate on your ribcage expanding with air.

  • 15

    Step 3: Continue to inhale further. Concentrate on the air moving up into your upper

    chest.

    Step 4: Reverse the process. Start exhaling slowly through the nose. Concentrate on the

    air existing the upper chest first, then the ribcage, then the abdomen.

    Step 5: Near the end of your exhale, pull in on your abdomen muscles and concentrate

    on getting all the air out.

    Step 6: Repeat by inhaling again. Visualize the air filling up your lungs abdomen,

    ribcage and upper chest. Then exhale emptying all the air from your upper chest,

    ribcage and abdomen.

    Continue this exercise for 10 15 minutes.

    Breathing Exercise #2: Bellows Breath

    This exercise is great for releasing stress, or improving energy.

    Step 1: Sit comfortably with your spine straight.

    Step 2: Blow sharply out of your nose. Make sure to pull in on the abdomen while you

    are blowing air out of your nose.

    Step 3: Relax your body. Your lungs will naturally inhale, filling the lungs again.

    Step 4: Blow sharply out of the nose again. Remember to pull in on the abdomen while

    exhaling. Then relax and allow your lungs to naturally inhale.

    Continue this exercise for 20 cycles. Then take a deep breath and rest for a few minutes.

    Do three sets of 20 cycles.

    Breathing Exercise #3: Conscious Connected Breath

    This exercise is used to release stress and relax the body and mind. This exercise has the

    most healing potential.

    Step 1: Lay down on your back with arms and legs in a relaxed state. The palms of your

    hands should be facing up.

    Step 2: Start with a full inhale through the mouth.

    Step 3: Allow the air to exhale through the mouth naturally. Dont pause before

    exhaling and dont push or hold onto the air. Just relax and let your body exhale for you.

    Step 4: Without pause, begin to inhale again. Pull the air up into the chest.

    Step 5: Again, allow the air to exhale naturally, as soon as the inhale has stopped.

    Continue this exercise for 5 10 minutes. Do not exceed 15 minutes.

    Following the three breathing exercises above will allow your body to circulate oxygen

    to all the organs in the body. Eventually cleaning the organs and releasing all the toxins

    through exhalation. Continue to use these

    exercises regularly during the week and

    youll notice an increase in energy and

    motivation.

    Youll not only sleep better at night, youll also feel young and energetic throughout the

    day while your body rids itself of harmful toxins.
