It moves stuck energy, allows you heal, and to move on. Do this whenever you feel anxiety or fear to move the energy of the solar plexus and the rest of your energetic system, or just when you need an energy boost. It works wonders!
TO DO LONG, DEEP BREATH:
Please make your spine straight, whether you are sitting, standing, or lying down. This whole breath is done very slowly and consciously, and the air moves in and out through your nose, not your mouth.
INHALE
Then slowly move your belly outward. As you do this, you are automatically drawing your diaphragm down. Your diaphragm is that amazing horizontal sheet of a muscle that is attached all around the edges to the inside walls of your torso. It is placed like a muscular round pizza just above your abdominal organs–stomach, liver, spleen, adrenals/kidneys and just under your lungs.
As your diaphragm moves down, it pulls the bottom of your lungs down, thereby pulling air into the bottom of your lungs as a bellows action. Allow your bottom ribs to expand, and then expand the upper ribs to bring air into all of your lungs!
EXHALE!
Now slowly move your belly in. This pushes your diaphragm up, and pushes the air out of the bottom of your lungs. Contract your bottom ribs, and then the upper ones for a full exhalation.
PACE
Do this as slowly and fully as you can comfortably do it. And be sure that the length of your inhale equals the length of your exhale! Once you get it, you can even change your breathing habit to be Long, Deep Breathing. Your nerves will be quieter, you will be more open, relaxed and creative. Guaranteed!
Once you catch on, it is quite easy! And if you do this often, you will find out how powerful it is!
