Free Pandemic Relief
Everyone is searching for some product to relieve some sort of discomfort or suffering. There are nutritional aids and supplements that can help. There are gadgets and machines that can help as well. It is important to keep looking, to keep learning and discovering new ideas.
There is a FREE way that gets overlooked. It is an internal system for getting through any hardship! It is called Deep Breathing Exercises. We, at Elemental Living and Relaxation One, are spreading the word about Deep Intentional Breathing. Breathing is a fuel source and a body regulator that gets overlooked. Maybe that is because it is completely automatic. So WHY pay attention!
Well the first answer is that increasing our fuel/oxygen/Prana intake is going to help us generate more energy. More fuel for cell regeneration and tissue and organ repair, better organ function, better digestion, better body temperature regulation… and more ENERGY! The next benefit is mental. Better brain function, better decision making and better mood.
I have been using and teaching Breathing Exercises for over 30 years. Forty years ago, I was living in Ashrams (quiet retreat centres in India) learning about the benefits of Yoga and more specifically Pranayama Yoga, which focuses on breathing and the various effects breathing exercises can have on our body and mind!
In the year 2000, I launched Elemental Marketing, which was the name of my consulting business, aimed at increasing a company’s or an individual’s bottom line. It did not take long for me to see that self-care and personal balance was a key factor in achieving business success. As time went on, I focused more on the health and balance of the individual who was seeking business success.
I always incorporated meditation and breathing into “The Program” for success. Some Clients just wanted to look at spreadsheets and balance sheets. When I was more focused on just business success, that is what I helped with. We focused on corporate identity, mission statements, logos, market optics, we did financial projections and developed promotional strategies.
As time went on, I started to make the correlation between business success and personal health and balance. Clients who were not succeeding had poor habits, sick bodies and were often living in denial of what is important in life. I started insisting, with Clients who were open to it, on looking at daily routines, habits and nutrition, which lead back to dealing with anxiety, worries and distraction. The word FOCUS, became paramount.
The way to focus was through, you guessed it, deep breathing and meditation. Quieting the mind is crucial for hearing our inner voice and seeing the way. There are a lot of people trying to teach breathing techniques and meditation online. In my Book, “I Breathe Therefore I AM”, I outline several techniques and styles. Whatever type of meditation you choose, the way to boost the effects of that meditation, is with some deep breathing exercises. The instant effects of a 5 to 10 minute breathing exercise is phenomenal!
You have come across this message for a reason. We overlook the power of breathing because it is automatic; we don’t have to think about it, so we don’t. We continue with ‘survival breathing’ and we are happy with that.
Once the wisdom of deep breathing exercises hits home, there are several routes one can take. One can take the course, “Breathing 101”. There are many resources for learning how to incorporate these exercises into daily routines. There are a lot of videos on the Web, but few give you an overview of all aspects of deep breathing and the benefits of integrating them into your daily routine.
Deep Conscious Breathing, Deep Intentional Breathing, Breathing Exercises became a central teaching in my consultation approach. The effects run much deeper than meets the eye (or nose)! Join us in The Elemental Living Group, or reach out for more information.
