Deep breathing is the basic part of the whole yoga system.
All yoga movements must be based on deep breathing.
The so-called yoga deep breathing refers to a kind of deep abdominal breathing that focuses on consciousness and deeply inhales fresh air one mouthful at a time.
Deep breathing is the first step to improve your health.
On the contrary, shallow breathing is an important cause of many diseases.
Breathing – the essence of yoga – Indian yoga believes that if our body is not healthy, it is difficult to obtain higher spiritual experience and life experience.
From the perspective of yoga, many people’s breathing methods are wrong, or very superficial.
Chuang Tzu said, “Breathe with the heel”.
Breathe with the heel and breathe deep into the heel.
A healthy person’s breathing should be deep, long and slow.
But under long-term stress, anxiety and various negative emotions, our breathing will become very shallow and very fast.
Shallow and rapid breathing can cause anxiety and tension in the body and mind.
When my body and mind are in a state of anxiety, it will make our breathing short and shallow.
Breathing is a very special behavior, which is controlled by both the autonomic nervous system and the non-autonomic nervous system.
In other words, you don’t need to consciously learn and control, and you will naturally breathe.
We can consciously control our breathing through learning.
In a state of tension and anxiety, consciously deepen your breathing.
Yoga has many kinds of breathing skills, which can regulate our autonomic nervous system through the depth, length and even holding our breath.
Generally, it can be divided into two types of breathing: fast, strong and slow, deep and long.
When we feel mentally ill or tired: we can stimulate the sympathetic nervous system under the autonomic nerve, recharge the body and restore the spirit through rapid and powerful breathing.
When we feel anxious and nervous: we can use deep and slow breathing to calm our nerves and achieve the effect of relaxation.
What is the concept of yoga? Yoga is a philosophy system and sports system under the guidance of which people can fully exert their potential by raising awareness.
Selfless action, stable mind, meditation and the nature and creation of the universe.
There will be some theories, but more importantly, practice.
Only when you do some exercises can your body react, feel and have a real experience.
We believe that the change of body and mind is not only in the physical stage.
In yoga, we think that we have not only one body, but also a deeper body, the subtle body.
Only 5% of yoga’s breathing works on the body, through the nose, nose, mouth, lungs and other bodies, and the remaining 95% works on two body levels that are more subtle than the body.
Doing yoga seems to be doing various physical exercises, but in fact, when you finish practicing, you will find that our body is not tired and does not consume our energy.
On the contrary, it will be as energetic as charging.
The basic breathing practice of yoga In Indian yoga, Pranayama is composed of Prana and Yama in Sanskrit, Prana means the energy of life and Yama means control.
Therefore, the method of controlling the internal life energy of the body (Pranas) is called breath control method (Pranayama).
For breathing practice, we recommend that you go outdoors in the countryside or in the mountains, where there are many green plants, where there is a lot of life energy, that is, oxygen and negative oxygen ions.
When we breathe in a good environment, we will absorb more life energy.
Today, we will teach you to practice isometric breathing: do conscious breathing to make the time of inhale and exhale equal.
When you inhale, count from one to four in your heart, and when you exhale, count from one to four.
Repeat this process, inhale with your nose and exhale with your mouth, just like blowing out a candle.
After repeated three or four times, return to natural breathing, inhale and exhale through the nose.
While still breathing, count from one to four in your heart.
Breathing is an instinctive activity of human beings, but not everyone can breathe in the right way..
