If no time to read (or no sense of having the time) do LDB - Long Deep

Breathing!

 

What it will do for YOU

Relax and calm

Give Clarity & greater alertness

Speeds up healing physical & emotional

Reduce insecurity & fear

Restore the aura

Increase lung capacity & clearing the mucus linings of the small air sacs (

alveoli ) preventing toxic build-up

Stimulates the production of endorphins in the brain/reduces depression

Helps regulate pH in the body which in turn helps you to handle stress !!

 

Practice LDB daily. You can do it anywhere. Strictly nose breathing... Just

begin by slowing down the in-breath and peace of mind will follow. Simply

inhale with a relaxed belly (big buddha belly) and exhale completely - belly

button to spine empty all air out.

Briefly hold the breath out and release for the breath to enter.

Start with a couple of minutes a day and as often as you can.
