detox breath

Steps for detoxifying breathing:
1) Blow out your breath sharply as if blowing out a candle.
2) Continue exhaling until you "feel it", that is until it feels complete
and you are ready to inhale.
3) Now, do nothing, your lungs will start to fill all on their own.
4) At the end of you inhalation recruit your diaphragm to complete your breath.
(Be careful not to throw out your chest or lift your shoulders as you may have been taught.)
5) Do these 4 steps and repeat them 6 times per day or about every 3 hours.
This is similar to a baby's breathing cycle and similar to a yoga breath.

How does it work?We dump about 30% of our bodies' waste through our
organs of elimination -bowels and bladder --the rest is largely up to our
respiratory system, persperation,etc.
What is the magic key to efficient breath and maximizing full elimination or toxins?
We need to utilize our diaphragm in breathing. Watch a baby breathe. A baby is using
its diaphragm to breathe. Unfortunately we un-learn this mechanism.

What is the diaphragm? It is the muscle that separates our upper body, torso from
our abdomen. It attaches to the lowest ribs front and back. If you place your fingertips
under your sternum -wishbone- along the ridge of your ribs you may feel the attachments of the diaphragm. This tissue should be soft and pliable. You should be able to place a quarter inch of your fingertips under your ribs. If it is hard and tight you are prone to g.r.i.d. (gastrointestinal reflux disease), hiatal hernia, heartburn and other digestive disorders.
