An excerpt from Mini Meditations: | ||||
The Three-Part Breath This exercise draws air from deep down in the diaphragm all the way to the upper lungs to help oxygenate the entire system. Begin the exercise at your normal breath speed. After a few breaths, gradually slow the breath, deepen the inhalation and lengthen the exhalation.
Most of us breathe too shallowly for optimal health—and
it tends to get even shallower when we are stressed or upset. This exercise illustrates just how much air you can really take in. Practicing it twice a day will not only calm your mind, but the added oxygen in your system will add color to your cheeks and sparkle to your eyes. Full Meditation Note: Practice this technique for up to five minutes. You can continue to focus on your breathing or move your focus of concentration to another point while you continue deep, slow breaths. |
