Breathing Exercises

The breath is our most valuable resource. Each breath is a gift of the present moment. The only time we can ever breathe is here and now. It is a constant exchange with the inner and outer worlds, constantly giving and receiving life force energy, or prana. Breathing occurs naturally, with no effort, so it can be forgotten and become shallow or mundane. By deepening the breath and drawing awareness to it,we can attune more deeply to ourselves and the space around us. Pranayama, or control of the breath, can completely shift our awareness at any time. It may also induce altered states of perception and even invoke psychedelic experiences!!

List of breathing techniques:

Long Deep Breath

This is the basic breathing exersice that allows us to deepen our breaths and our awereness. It can increase the lung capacity, so that we are receiving the most from ever inhale and exhale. This is a very simple technique that can be done by slowing, aligning, and bringing full awareness to the breathe. Become completely full with each inhale, and all the way empty with each exhale.

Square Breathing:

This exercise works o balance the inhale and exhale, while increasing awareness and slowing the mind. Use to increase presence and stillness.
Practice: Inhale 4 counts, hold the breath 4 counts, exhale 4 counts, hold breath 4 counts.
inhale, hold, exhale, hold, repeat. ratio 1:1:1:1

Alternate Nostril Breathing

This technique works to balance the hemispheres of the brain by bringing equal amounts of oxygen through each nostril. This cultivates balance of masculine/feminine, yin/yang, light/dark aspects of Self to instill overall wholeness. It is a very calming, relaxing, chilling practice that slows heart rate.
PRACTICE: Start by inhaling through both nostrils. Plud the right nostril and exhale through the left, then inhale through left. Change nostrils, plugging the left; exhale right, inhale right. Switch nostrils, repeat. Each time you switch nostrils, begin with exhale then inhale switch nostrils. find a steady pace with 6 counts.
BREATH: exhale left 6, inhale left 6, exhale right 6, inhale right 6

Shamanic Breathing

This breath is used to induce altared states of consciousness when done over long periods of time. It is good to do while laying down listening to tribal/meditation music attuned to 432hz. Good for "Shamanic Journeying."
PRACTICE: Inhale deeply and powerfully through the nostrils, immediately followed by a strong exhale through the mouth. Repeat at your own pace.

3-Part Yogic Breath

This activity has 3 parts, and will flow into one smooth, continuous breath. It's benefits are increased lung capacity, deepened body awareness, release of stale energy, prana accumulaion.
Practice: Start with the inhale at the base of the spine. Completely fill the tummy with air, then fill th ribcage, then fill the chest until you are completely full of prana. Reverse on the exhale, emptying the chest, then ribcage, then tummy until you are all the way empty. Repeat several times back and forth.

1:2 Breathing

When the mind is sleeping, the natural breath pattern is 2:1 inhale:exhale. By reversing this, and making our exhales longer, we wake up and enliven our brain.
Practice: inhale 4 counts, exhale 8 counts, repeat. The exhale isnt necessarily more air, it is just slowed down.

Kapalabati Breath

This is a cleansing breath that works to release stale, stagnant energy from the field. It may have a stimulating effect, increase heart rate, and a great way to wake up.
PRACTICE: Inhale completely through the nose. begin Short, rapid exhales simultaneously at your own pace. Only exhale, and the inhale is subtle, and happens passively. Every exhale brings the tummy in toward the spine . After you run out of air, exhale completely, then inhale hold for as long as possible, then resume normal breathing.
