Sat Nam Juan,

Guruchander Singh is blessed to have been by Yogiji side almost

every evening for years doing bodywork well into the night. This

exposure has given him an immense knowledge and many all are blessed

by his sharing.

The tightness in your diaphragm prevents the flow of energy

(prana) and emotions through the heart. If this energy were flowing

freely (evidenced by the freedom to cry in public, or feel fear, or

beam with glee, etc.), your heart will fill like a bucket of water

(prana). This water (prana) will flow over the top and begin

nourishing the rest of your being, including the Kidney meridian

which is where your adrenals are. Once the adrenals and kidneys are

being bathed in this flow of prana your energy will increase greatly.

Many stresses and fears will fall off and dis-ease will be averted.

In addition to the yoga set on page 36 of Gururattan's "Transitions

to a Heart-Centered World', you should consider the watermelon fast.

Eat a whole watermelon (or more) everyday for 3 - 11 days. This is

very soothing for the Kidneys.

Also, make sure you work pelvic lifts into your warm-ups

regardless of whatever else you do, then layout to integrate.

And lastly, you can play with the idea of laying on your back and

placing a ten pound bag of rice (or kitty litter) on your stomach

twice a day, and laying there, breathing, for 10 - 15 minutes. Let

the breath raise and lower it. You will learn to begin breathing

properly.

Chest breathing is panic breathing and comes directly from living

out of the adrenal , fight or flight reaction.

Do Ra Ma Da Sa, Sa Say So Hung (5 - 11 mins)loudly before you go

to sleep.

Keep us posted.

Sat Nam,

Dharam Singh

Diaphragmatic Breath

 

Diaphragmatic Breath is distinct from what is often called 'belly

breathing.'

 

Belly breathing focuses simply on the movement of the belly with the

breath -- expanding on the inhalation, contracting with the

exhalation -- as an aid to deepening the breath. This is often taught

to people who breathe primarily with the secondary muscles of the

upper chest; it's easy to feel the movement of the belly with the

breath, and so it is a fairly simple matter to repattern one's

breathing by drawing the breath deeper -- into the belly.

 

Yet diaphragmatic breathing is a more precise -- and beneficial --

practice, when understood properly. Diaphragmatic breathing is 'three-

dimensional,' involving all sides of the lower ribs, and not just the

belly. It is done with the middle of the torso, involving a gentle

expansion of the lower ribs as the diaphragm draws downward.

 

Diaphragmatic breathing can be practiced by placing your hands at the

sides of the lower ribs. Breathe into your belly and lower ribs,

expanding three-dimensionally against the gentle resistance of your

hands in order to tune into and strengthen the workings of the

diaphragm. Your belly, though it does expand at first with the breath

(signaling the downward movement of the diaphragm that draws in the

breath) it should not distend above the ribs on the inhalation.

 

Though in diaphragmatic breath the belly does move out at first with

the inhalation as it does with belly breathing, the two are not the

same. With diaphragmatic breathing, you'll notice that as the breath

continues to expand with the movement of the ribs and diaphragm, the

lower belly tones inward and even draws slightly upward, even as the

diaphragm remains fully expanded. Consciously include the expansion

of the lower ribs with your breath; this keeps the belly and solar

plexus toned properly, rather than distended.

 

While belly breathing can sometimes stir up deeply held emotions --

and has its usefulness for that reason -- diaphragmatic breathing

brings calmness and tranquility and soothes troubled emotions.

Diaphragmatic breathing brings the breath in deep while massaging the

heart and toning and nourishing your internal organs.

 

Try practicing diaphragmatic breathing in times of stress and

anxiety, as well as at the beginning of every pranayama practice!

 

 

Sat Nam

Hello my name is Juan and I live in Canary Islands in Spain. I

write just to tell that according to tantric numerology I´ve got a

karma of 8, as Dr. Guruchander says that means that I have low energy

and he says that the problem is because my pranic body is not

working, in other words I need to get my diaphragm flex out.

This conclusion is absolutely true, cause I´ve had all my life (I´m

36 right now) some kind of pressure (sometimes more and sometimes

less) on that zone of the diaphragm, that I think (hope not to be

wrong) is where the heart chakra is. This fact makes me dificult to

have a nomal long deep breath in my normal life, so I have little

prana what makes me live as if I had half battery.

The questión I want to ask is which Kriya or breath technique in any

of those manuals or others, would be better for getting my diaphragm

flex out as Dr. Guruchander says.

Any answer would be absolutety grated.

 

Million thank you´s in advance.

Sat nam Juan.
