Diaphragmatic (Deep Abdominal) BreathingThis breathing exercise takes less than three minutes to do... and is well worth the effort! Besides increasing your energy through deep breathing, your body depends on the lymph system to drain off toxins from your body through deep breaths. Unlike the blood, the lymph system doesn't have a pump. The lymph system relies on deep breathing and movement for stimulation. Diaphragmatic breathing multiples by 15 times the pace of normal elimination. Practiced daily, this simple breathing technique can change your life for the better in many ways. After just 3 minutes (or ten deep, purposeful breaths, and having achieved a relaxed state of mind, one can more easily focus on the task at hand, or free oneself of anger, fear, stress, symptoms of anxiety and even minimize physical pain (when used in conjunction with visualization techniques). Take 10 Slow, Deep Breaths.... Make yourself as comfortable as possible... sitting or reclining with your spine straight and your arms and legs uncrossed. Close your eyes. Inhalation: As you take your first breath, say silently, to yourself the number "One". Breathe in as deeply as is comfortable for you.... inhaling through your nostrils, filling and expanding your abdomen. Imagine you're inhaling radiant energy... fresh air... and fresh thoughts ideas and energy. Exhalation: Breathe out fully and completely... through your mouth.... Imagine you're exhaling negative energy or stale thoughts, tiredness, disease.... Allow all of the air to fully flow out of your body. Before you begin the next inhalation.... say, silently... to yourself, "Relax". Repeat the above for each of the 10 breaths... (numbers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 & 10) Imagine that each inhalation is slowly filling a bright blue balloon in your belly, or that you are inhaling positive thoughts and energy and exhaling the negative. Breathe rhythmically... slowly... and fully. After the tenth exhalation is completed... slowly open your eyes and notice how relaxed you are. Change your breathing rate... change your emotional state! To learn more about breathing please attend our Workshop |
