We hope however, that you will look into the work of Emile Conrad at Continuum Movement. Emile has taken breath work to a fascinating new level over the past 40 plus years. You've probably'never seen anything like it (trust us). This intense breathing and slow movement work is one of the most potent forms of healing we have encountered in our own 20 years of research and application.

NOSE BREATHING

1 YEA   

[YEA]  09/29/2007: Victoria Shepard from Santa Barbara, CA writes: "Nose breathing reduced my asthma-like symptoms considerably. About 8 years ago I was diagnosed with allergy related asthma. I ignored the symptoms for about 6 years as they were mild. They worsened, and I had to use an inhaler every day to control the coughing. This year, I noticed that when I laughed, sang, yelled or became stressed, talked too much (I am a teacher), I would cough. I knew my doctor would just give me more asthma drugs, so I began to research alternative treatments on the internet. I came up with the Buyteko program which requires an hour a day of breathing exercises and changing to nose breathing from mouth breathing. As I do not have an hour a day to practice specialized breathing exercises, I utilized what I could: In June of this year (2007), I became a nose breather. It was tricky at first. I had to learn to shorten my sentences and inhale only through my nose. I naturally exhale through my mouth slowly as I speak. This is okay. No deep breathes in or out through the mouth. No deep breathes in through the nose either. To prevent mouth breathing at night, in accordance with the Buyteko program, I tape my mouth with cheap masking tape. It took 3 months, but I have no asthma-like symptoms. I can laugh, shout, get excited or stresed and sing.

It has been over a months since I have used an inhaler. "

SLOW BREATHING

1 YEA   

[YEA]  05/06/2007: David from Estepona, Spain writes: "Slow breathing is not quite a remedy but it is definitely a natural method and I'm surprised it's not yet on your site. It has completely solved my hypertension problem and it's also ideal for relaxation, stress and anxiety relief and much more. You can even use it for panic attacks. I use a method of slow breathing combined with music that is so relaxing and enjoyable. I hope I'm allowed to include a link to a very informative, non-commercial article with easy instructions for slow breathing: www. control-your-blood-pressure.com/healthy_breathing.html"


07/18/2008: Dan from Makham, Canada replies: "Most people do not breath more than 16 breaths per minute. Now the oxygen was 20percent 50 years ago, it was 60 percent now is now 16 percent.so you should learn how to breathe properly. When you exhale deeply contracting your belly slowly as you expand the abdomen, continue inhaling as you expand the chest,continue inhaling as you raise you shoulders up towards your ears. Exhale in the reverse pattern slowly. Release shoulders, relax chest, contract the belly repeat. Beginners should only do it 2or 3 times. Cancer cannot survive in the presence of oxygen and it relieves stress and is a healthy thing to do."

YOGA BREATH TO LOWER HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE

1 YEA   

[YEA]  03/28/2008: Bill from Gilmanton, NH writes: "I read about a machine that you can pay a lot if money for, which helps lower your blood pressure by a breathing technique. I learned this Yoga breathing technique which does the same thing. Breath in, (through nose) half way..12345, hold...12345, breath in rest of way...12345, hold..1-5, Breath out half way through lips, 1-5, hold...1-5, finish emptying lungs as slowly as possible through pursed lips. Do 8 rounds of this. 8 is the Chinese lucky number. It is also the symbol for infinity when turned sideways. The object is to take longer on the exhale than on the inhale. I find that I can lower my BP quite a bit with this method."


08/01/2008: Steven from Redwood City, CA replies: "I am using this breathing technique (thank you for sharing!) and find it to be relaxing. My question is: how much is "quite a bit" when you say you lowered your blood pressure using this technique?

Thank you,
Steven"
