MORE OXYGEN = MORE LIFE
Dr. Andrew Weil was one of the few MDs who jumped out of the mainstream, and into the side-stream of alternative/complementary medicine. And then so many people followed him, the side-stream has almost become the mainstream.
When asked at a lecture what was the most important health tip he could share with the audience, Dr. Weil's answer was:
"LEARN HOW TO BREATHE."
He went on to say that he tells all of his patients this same thing- learn how to breathe!
What are the keys to breathing better?
DEEP, QUIET, SLOW, REGULAR
DEEP = breathe deeply by extending and emphasizing the exhale, which enables you to inhale more deeply with less effort (more air out = more air in)
QUIET = quiet breathing through your NOSE
SLOW = breathe slower, extending inhale & exhale, particularly exhale
REGULAR = breathe at an even pace
What are the benefits of
DEEP, QUIET, SLOW, REGULAR breathing
through your NOSE?
less anxiety
more control over your mental & emotional state
lower blood pressure
improved circulation
improved digestion
more oxygen exchange
"MORE OXYGEN = MORE HEALTH."
