The Secret to slimming, building immune system and eliminating disease by breathing
Are You Breathing Right?
Do you know that breathing right will make a great difference in your life - a difference that you can feel and see; and others can see in you?
Here in Asia there are many breathing techniques to improve one's health. The Malays, Chinese and Indians all have their own system and variations. What all have in common is the "breathe in - hold - breathe out" technique. We Malays also have a technique, which coupled with certain posture or postures can "magically" improve health and longevity.
However, the technique I am revealing below is just the basic breathing technique, but powerful enough to transform you, if you diligently and consistently practice it.
The System
First, purse your lips as if you are to whistle or to blow through a straw or such. Blow as long as you comfortably can to completely empty your lungs. Then sniff up as if you have a runny nose and hold to a count of 3, or as long as you comfortably can.
Beginning with your mouth closed, force the air out through the mouth. Then, towards the end, let your jaw drop open and get out as much of the air as you can. Make your mouth as big as you can while you force out all the air in your lungs with a forceful "Pahh!" and at the same time tucking in your stomach.
Now hold your breath and contract the muscles in your stomach and diaphragm, lifting all the muscles to your throat. Hold this as long as possible and then take a normal breath. (That's one cycle.) You should move right into the next cycle and do 10 in a row or any amount of repetitions without over-exertion. STOP when you are tired.
Do at least 10 times in a row every day. But at your first try, if you feel tired after 2 or 3 cycles; stop and rest a while before continuing into the next cycle. If you want to lose inches from your waist, do this about 40 times. 20 times a day will ensure a healthier you. FEEL the difference!
Hip Tips
Start in front of a mirror and after a few attempts, take this work-free workout with you wherever you go.
The keyword here is "comfortably can". Do not over-exert yourself. The complete exercise must be a FUN thing to do.
It is best if you maintain a sort of rhythm by being consistent with the counts in your breathing in, hold and breathing out routine.
If this is the first time you are doing complete breathing, go slow on the repetition and slowly build up the counts. You are flooding your body with healthy oxygen which will clear the toxins from your body
Sudden increases in oxygen intake will make you nauseous. You NEED to get used to the extra oxygen. After that, you will never turn back. You will love that feeling. Your body will love that change!
Drink plenty of water to flush out the toxins from your body. You'll need to drink 8 to 11 glasses of water daily depending on your body weight.
Do not gulp down your water. Sip in small amounts. Regular and consistent. You would not want to flood your guts. You need water in your cells. Remember, it is not the amount of water that you take is important; it's how much that goes to your cells that determines your blood pH and your health status.
