To Breathe or Not to Breathe – that’s not a question
If you want to get more living out of life, along with greater strength, energy, flexibility and balance, then I have some superlative news for you.
And that is: Adding deep breathing to whatever you are doing will give you advancing abilities and skills.
Let’s examine flexibility as an example. You can take any stretch in my course, Combat Stretching, and improve your results rapidly when you inhale into the area that is tight followed by an exhale into the same area.
To do this, the first order of business is entertaining the idea that you can direct your breath anywhere you so choose.
Instead of assuming that the only place an inhale can travel to is your lungs, you rid yourself of this modern day fallacy and travel back in time to what the ancients knew.
You question the assumption you have in mind by asking something such as, “Can I inhale into my right hand?”
You imagine the preposterous possibility of doing so. You neither believe nor disbelieve. You TEST to see what happens.
After this you put your awareness in the center of your chest – your heart center – and test again.
Then you test the same idea with your lower belly.
And finally, if you have the willingness to really explore the map inside your body, you test to see if you can inhale into your thighs and calves, then go all the way down to your feet.
Hark onto the sage saying from Zhuangzi, written eons ago:
“Ordinary men breathe from their throats; extraordinary men breathe from their feet.”
This saying changed the way I looked at stretching (and everything else) and as a result of following this wisdom the results I got from stretching changed (along with everything else).
When you combine what I have just revealed with the other secrets in Combat Stretching, you really can double your flexibility in one evening.
Hype? Not at all. I’ve proven it repeatedly for more than 20 years.
If you don’t have this course yet, I recommend you get it NOW so you, too, can experience the feeling and the freedom of maximizing your mobility, and your life.
