BREATH RIGHT!

You become how you breath.

To breath right is vital for our whole existence. You tell your body – and spirit – how it’s supposed to feel, through your breathing.

If you breath small, short breaths, you wont get the oxygen you need and your body isn’t going to feel good. Your spirit neither.

By breathing small, short breaths you tell your body to prepare to run from something. Because, how do you breath in a pressed situation? – Short breaths!

It’s how the nature prepare us, all beings – animals and humans – if we get scared, to breath fast and shallow.

So, in other words, when you breath shallow, your body believe that you are preparing to flee in one way or another. And it’s prepared – and tensed.

If the body is prepared all the time, it doesn’t get the rest it needs either. And you can enter a stress that’s hard to break.

Try to breath in really short, shallow breaths for some seconds. Notice how it feels in your body. Now – breath long, relaxed breaths. Do you notice the difference in your body?

It’s like a peace, and calm, is entering your body, right?

Paul Brunton, an esoteric author, is pointing out the importance of the breathing when you are trying to get in contact with your Higher Self. I read a book he wrote, many years ago, where he gives advices about the breathing, and it helped me a lot. The breathing is such a good tool to get to thrive.

I remember that he said that you should try to work to get your inhale and exhale to last for fifteen seconds. It’s a lot of work in the beginning, almost painful. But it gives great results. You just have to practice and practice. In the beginning it can feel like you’re not getting enough air, so you almost get a panic. Just take it easy.

Inhale, rest for just a little while, and then exhale. Remember the goal is fifteen seconds, so it’s nothing you are supposed to be able to do already from the beginning……

But the more you succeed to breath in long breaths, and get it to become a routine, the more calm you will feel. You are telling the body and the mind that all is calm, and that way you are becoming calm as well.

KEEP ON BREATHING………
