Just Breathe
I know you are thinking, “I Am Breathing!!”
Breathing on purpose
with a purpose
will help you not just stay alive,
but can help you LIVE!!!
Alternate Nostril Breath
One of the most important thing to learn is the correct breath ratio –
inhale/retention/exhale 1/4/2.
You don’t have to do the retention,
and it’s advisable that you don’t when you first start out.
Beginners you should a count of 3 sec on the inhale, 6 sec on the exhale
increase by one count once it becomes easy to do.
Why it works to help you LIVE!
Slowing your breathing rate and increasing the blood oxygen signals the brain to release GABA!
GABA, in turn, inhibits the release of cortisol and adrenaline,
this allows your body-mind to finally slow down,
rest,
digest
and repair itself.
For The Health of It
Peace and Love
