Conscious Breathing

Conscious Breathing draws on more than twenty years of research and practice to present a simple yet comprehensive program that can be used every day to improve energy, mental clarity, and physical health. As the essential life-force of the body, the breath influences how we feel on every level. But many traditional breathing programs are limited by esoteric or cultlike elements. Pioneering therapist Gay Hendricks has refined the most important practices into a mainstream healing tool that can provide dramatic benefits--ranging from lowered blood pressure and pain reduction to elimination of depression and anxiety--in as little as ten minutes a day. At the core of the book are eight key breathing exercises, fully illustrated, with step-by-step instructions, plus the "short form" ten-minute breathing program. Additional chapters provide breathing techniques for special concerns, including: Breathing to aid in trauma release and recovery from addictions. Treatment of asthma and other respiratory problems. Enhancement of sex and communication between couples. Improved concentration and stamina in sports.

Boost Energy, Combat Stress, and Improve Heart Health Breathing is something we all know how to do. And yet, the majority of us lose our natural ability to breathe fully: we are conditioned from an early age to control our feelings and emotions, and as a result our muscles tighten and our breathing patterns become restricted. The impact on our mental and physical well-being is huge. Breath coach Rebecca Dennis shares the deep diaphragmatic breathing exercises that she uses with her clients to combat issues such as anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem--techniques that helped her heal from her own depression. With simple exercises that can be done anywhere, anytime, And Breathe shows you how to harness the power of your own breath through conscious breathing, which helps alleviate stress, fatigue, and negative emotions. The result? You'll feel calm yet energized, focused yet relaxed. Full of tips and real-life testimonials, the heart of And Breathe is the exercises, which show you how to: Conquer anxious thought patterns Relax and calm your mind Improve sleep Quell pre-meeting butterflies or email overload Increase physical energy Expand your creativity By learning how to consciously connect to your breathe and encourage its natural rhythms, you can let go of any unwanted patterns of emotions, blockages, and tension holding you back.

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Poor breathing is the underlying cause of many health problems, and it can be improved by simply learning how to breathe correctly. When we repeat an action often enough, it becomes a habit. Once we have established incorrect breathing patterns, we risk them becoming permanent. #2 Inefficient breathing reduces our ability to utilize the oxygen we inhale effectively. It will also result in us using more muscle power and effort to move the air in and out of our lungs. #3 There are nine major negative effects of impaired respiration on the body, all of which prevent vital oxygen from reaching our working muscles and organs. The oxygen is not released to the tissues, and instead remains in the blood tightly bound to hemoglobin until we exhale it. #4 Poor breathing can lead to being overweight. It can also affect our nervous system, which can lead to being overweight. Our heart has to work harder because it is not receiving the oxygen it needs.

• Shares a series of simple, practical, and profound conscious breathing, movement, and meditation exercises that help you bypass the ego-centered mind, open your heart, and live in the present moment • Developed through the author’s decades of work with cancer patients Through decades of teaching yoga and meditation to cancer patients, William Yang witnessed hundreds of breakthroughs into radical presence and openheartedness. In many ways, his patients taught him more than he taught them. From this collaboration with the sick and dying, Yang developed a series of simple, practical, and profound conscious breathing, movement, and meditation exercises that help to bypass the ego-centered mind, open the heart, and live fearlessly in the present moment. Yang’s exercises begin with an invitation to rediscover a natural and unforced way of breathing, so we can let go of our anxious ego and let life in again. From there, enlarging the sequence step by step, the author focuses on grounding and connecting with Mother Earth, working with the spine to develop a new sense of self-confidence, and opening the heart to love again. As we shed elements of the stressed, anxious person we once were, we are able to be more attuned to the world around us in a loving and caring way. Through the lessons learned from his cancer patients, Yang shows how, with courage and compassion, we can live and love without reservation at any time in our lives.
