Deep Breathing 101

Hi I’m Shawna and I’m a spiritual mentor. One of the tools I use to help people reconnect to themselves is the breath. By learning to work with the breath we learn to work with life because your breath is your link to life!

Think about it: what happens when you’re trying not to cry? You hold the breath. When you are frightened? A sharp inhalation. So, learning to breathe fully totally influences your state of being.

In my last post I gave you a really simple way of bringing the breath deep down into the lungs.

This time you'll learn how to get familiar with the three sections of the lungs (lower, middle, upper) and how to link them together on the in-breath.

Remember, the breath is your link to life, moment by moment. You can come to this breath throughout the day to help you come back to the present, to feel more clear-minded and to feed your body what it needs--oxygen! It's amazing how something so simple can have such a profound effect.
