Conscious connected
breathing is the
easiest way to bring
your focus to the
present moment. As
you bring all your
attention to your
breathing, feel your
abdomen rise with
each inhale and fall
with the exhale.
Feel the breath as
it passes your lips.
Listen to the sound
of your breathing.
Our breath is one
thing that we always
have with us that
can bring us to
instant peace. As we
continue to breathe
without pause
between the inhale
and exhale, the
oxygen floods our
system. Super
oxygenated blood is
now racing through
our body. As our
brain gets flooded
with the oxygen rich
blood, seratonin and
endorphins are
released. It feels
good. As we continue
the steady rhythm,
our body starts to
tingle with all the
intense energy that
we're drawing in. We
are steadily drawn
into a deeper state
of total relaxation
- complete
surrender. From this
place, everything
makes sense. Joy
comes with new
clarity.
There are many other
reasons to start a
regular routine of
conscious connected
breathing. Increased
energy is a big one.
When you consider
that we get at least
70% of our energy
from breathing, it's
no wonder that so
many people are
lacking the energy
that they would
like. The most
obvious reason to
open up our
breathing is to
achieve better
health. Please refer
to the
Medical Info
page for more
information.
Although
it may be possible
to start these
exercises on your
own, there is no
replacement for a
facilitated session.
Find a
professional in
your area or join us
for a Breath
workshop or weekend
to help make the
initial opening of
your breathing.
So
here is the
Formula to
stay in joy when any
uncomfortable
feeling arises.
First, notice how
you are breathing
and then ask these
two questions;
1. Do I want to feel
good?
2. What is missing
in this exact
moment?
If you find
something missing,
ask yourself if you
really need it to
survive. |
