Breath Equals Life!

Are you wanting to be free, alive, and connected to Source Energy more often? One key is to reduce your resistance to the flow of the Universe, and to let yourself fell better and better over time. Law of Attraction matches you up with more resistance, or more connection, based on what you practice most often. I have a hard time relaxing sometimes, and I always go back to this one simple tip when things get tough: Notice Your Breath! When you are resisting your well being, you almost always will also be resisting your free flow of oxygen as well. Yogic masters have taught the free flow of breath for thousands of years, and breathing is the fastest way to connect to well being that I can think of. You don’t even have to feel disconnected to practice breathing. Here are a few tips.
- As soon as you can after waking in the morning, stand and take about 20 fast, deep, and cleansing breaths, blowing air in and out vigorously. Be careful not to get light headed, and pay attention to if you feel dizzy. Take three breaths per second, filling and emptying as much as you can with each breath. Picture Life Force pulsing through your entire being. Then just relax and start your day.
- When you feel tense or resistant, or if something has gone very wrong for you, sit and breathe slowly, in and out. Let each breath be 5 seconds or so, and just feel the air coming and going. See the tension melting away. Work to make each inhalation and exhalation longer and longer until you can sustain a 10 or 15 second cycle.
Making the breath move makes your energy move too. Stagnation equals death, and movement equals life. Holding your breath equals death, then, and the free flow of breath equals life. May you enjoy your freedom, joy, and deep breathing all day today, and for many days to come. Thank you so much… Be Well,
Marie-GP

Thanks so much Emily. Your advice is excellent, and it works. Breath is everything, and I appreciate learning better how to help others connect with their life force. Namaste to you too. Marie

Great post Marie!
If you don’t want to get light headed, try this:
Divide your breath so that whatever length of time it takes to take a breath in, the out going breath should be about twice as long. So, for example, if it takes you five seconds to take a breath in, make sure that your outgoing breath is about ten seconds long. It doesn’t have to be exact, just as long as your exhalation is longer than your inhalation.
