Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting from the 1960's, yoga books and nearly all yoga teachers started to promote the deep-breathing myth: one should breathe more air (even at rest) and expel "toxic" CO2. However, hundreds of clinical studies showed and proved that hyperventilation reduces oxygen levels in cells, while CO2 is crucial for health.Deep breathing, as during pranayama, only looks deep. In reality, as ancient yoga texts teach, pranayama should be done with maximum breath holds and accumulation of CO2 in order to have slower breathing after the practice and 24/7. Only with progress in pranayama (extension of all stages), one can get main yoga benefits, weight loss and other effects. Millions of people believe in a myth that gaining health improvements from practicing yoga is about performing progressively more difficult poses. However, you can practice poses for months or years, but this does not provide any guarantee that your health is going to improve.Yoga benefits and true yoga spirit, as ancient yoga Sanskrit books teach, are in breathing less air 24/7, even less than the tiny medical respiratory norm. Then one can expect more oxygen in the brain and other organs, normal body weight, short natural sleep, and experience real measurable yoga benefits. Here are general ideas that are confirmed by hundreds of clinical studies quoted in this book:Severely sick and hospitalized people* Respiratory frequency at rest and during sleep: >25 breaths/min* Body oxygenation (result for the CP test):

This book was released on 2012-10-26 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga benefits, as ancient yoga books teach, are in breathing less air automatically and 24/7, even less than the tiny medical respiratory norm. Then one can expect more oxygen in the brain and other organs, and experience true benefits from yoga. Millions of people think and believe in a myth that yoga progress is about more and more difficult asanas or spiritual enlightenment. However, one can start yoga for beginners and can practice asanas for months or years, but this does not provide any guarantee that your health is going to improve. You can eat tons of supplements and super-foods, drink canisters of herbal drinks, have hundreds of colonic irrigations, and practice yoga for many hours every day, but if your body oxygen level remains the same, you will suffer from the same symptoms and require the same dosage of medication. You can also have years of spiritual practices while getting sicker and sicker with cancer, diabetes, weight gain and some other conditions. Only 2-3 generations ago, yoga did cure chronic diseases. Old American health journals and yoga books from the 1920's and 30's were full of advertisements of yoga courses with money back guarantees. Those yoga courses were for people with asthma, hypertension, chronic fatigue, weight loss, insomnia and other common conditions who successfully restored their health with old, traditional yoga. The main yoga benefit relates to better body oxygenation or correct automatic breathing. If you get this yoga benefit, all other benefits will follow. Then you can get an astonishing level of energy, perfect digestion, excellent sleep, and greatly improved physical fitness. Why could modern yoga teachers not replicate the same success? What is wrong or different in contemporary yoga leaders and their teaching of yoga for beginners and masters? Why most yoga courses provide almost no benefits to yoga students for weight loss and other conditions? Modern yoga teachers cannot explain, in exact numbers, the ideal breathing pattern that provides maximum body O2 levels. What do they say? Most yoga teachers claim that we need to breathe more air (even at rest) and expel "toxic" CO2. Modern science testify about solid physiological foundation of ancient yoga: when we breathe more air at rest (hyperventilation), we have less O2 in body cells. Breathing more air does not increase blood oxygenation to any significant degree. A person can breathe twice less or several times more than the medical norm, but blood oxygenation will be about the same, or about 97-99 %. But CO2 is the crucial factor for O2 transport. The book explains why slow and small breathing (with more CO2) provides more O2 for the cells. Thousands of recent research studies have proven beyond all doubts that chronic health problems, on a cell level, are based on low O2 levels. This relates to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, arthritis, inflammatory conditions, cystic fibrosis, HIV-AIDS and many other conditions. You cannot have normal body oxygenation and a lifestyle disease. Therefore, freedom from diseases is among main yoga health benefits. There are also hundreds of research studies that measured breathing of healthy people, ordinary people and people with chronic diseases. Dozens of these studies and their exact results are quoted in this book. These studies testify about the triumph of ancient yoga and its benefits. Deep breathing, as during pranayama, only looks deep. In reality, pranayama should be done with maximum breath holds and accumulation of CO2 in order to have slower breathing after the practice and 24/7. Only with progress in pranayama, one can get main yoga benefits. Progress in yoga for beginners and masters can be measured using a simple DIY body-oxygen test that is described in this book. If you get over 40 seconds of O2 for this easy test, then you will be astonished with changes in your health and real yoga benefits.

Book excerpt: You can eat tons of supplements and superfoods, drink canisters of super drinks, have 100's of colonic irrigations, and practice yoga for hours every day, but, if your breathing remains unchanged, your symptoms, chronic insomnia, and other health problems will likely remain unchanged too. This is because breathing brings vital oxygen, and less than 95% of modern people have the right breathing. Modern people, including so-called "normal subjects", simply breathe too much air day and night. (Exact charts, graphs, studies, and numbers are inside the book).

Check out our Facebook Page for more Reviews Breathwork programme was the first structured programme I undertook with a view to improve my breathing and lung capacity. It was a great experience, as we concluded the 21 day run today. a) Improvement in the way I breathe and being conscious of it b) Most importantly, establishment of a regimen which is clearly very hard to achieve on your own c) Anu Lall’s dedication in making sure that everyone gets it. And getting us into the flow patiently. d) getting us to appreciate the nuances of breathing, diet, our physiology. Very much recommended. Everyone should do this course. *** With Breathing exercises for just over two weeks, I have experienced conscious breathing that was otherwise an involuntary activity. I see a difference in my reactions to a situation, have a grip of my effervescent emotions. The result: a better balanced being. I also see how we naturally adapt our breath in response to a particular emotion or an evolving situation. *** In just the first two days with YogaSmith, I found myself finally breathing through BOTH my nostrils, simultaneously. Then clearly. Both in & out! Certain breathing exercises relax my mind. Others energise me for my outdoor sporty activity. Yet another helps me balance my emotions.. mind & body benefit from breathing consciously, through science & simplicity. *** I attended the 21-day Breathwork program by YogaSmith and am so glad that I invested my time doing that. It was an extremely well structured course and Anu Lall is an excellent teacher. Day 1 itself was a revelation and I looked forward to every single day of practise. While I can list out the numerous benefits, to me what stands out is the realisation that I missed out on so much by not doing this earlier. *** Her mission to make the planet yoga and nature aligned as district from pooping pills and getting under rays of scanner is commendable. I have personally have almost 3 Kgs She makes things very easy by using very daily life examples and keeping the integrity of Sanskrit scriptures in place. *** Both of us absolutely loved the Pranayam classes. It was very much a learning experience for us and we are getting better at exhaling and Drishtis!

Download or read book Breath written by James Nestor and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2020-05-26 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A New York Times Bestseller A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020 Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR “A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe—and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic and Eat Pray Love No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe. Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.
