In your life you have most likely had some unwanted experiences, which you then resist repeating by inhibiting your breathing and being less alive. This sub-ventilating is intended as a protection.

This sub-ventilating is your automatic controlled attempt to homeostasis – it is the way to make sure you don’t touch those memories and remain unchanged. This is the BREATHING CONTROL SYSTEM, and it reasons that staying in status quo is keeping you alive, and any change “could” be dangerous.

But, in fact, this Breathing Control System is slowly killing you, because it leaves you with a less than optimum amount of Life-force and oxygen, which is a growing ground for many dis-eases and it also leaves you tired, lazy and a lack of passion.

The way the Breathing Control System works is to make sure that the amount of Source Energy – Life-force you add through inhaling and awareness will never exceed the amount of energy you use up, through physical and mental tension.

The Breathing Control System monitors:

• How much energy you “take in” (through breathing and awareness) and then ‘FORCES’ you to “use up” an equal amount.
• How much energy you “use up” (through moving, tensing and thinking) and then “MAKES” you take in an equal amount of energy.

When you increase your energy by Breathing more and being more Aware, the Breathing Control System makes you get rid of this energy by making you tense up or get mentally active and unaware. Like, when you feel more, you nervously move, including deflating self-talk and zooning out.

When you decrease your energy, by Tensing, Moving, Thinking and Zooning out, the Breathing Control System makes you fill up on energy by making you Breath more or Think less. Like, when you run and have to take a breather, you focus and breathe deeply, void of thinking.

Sometimes the Breathing Control System gets OFF GUARD. Then, Natural Breathing kicks in and you sigh, yawn, laugh, be emotional, exert yourself and sleep.

Once you realize the benefits of breaking the Breathing Control System, you will intend to RETAIN more energy than you use up. That is what happens when you do Natural Breathing.

If you break the Breathing Control System, you will retain more energy than you use up, and end up with an EXCESS of energy and that energy must go somewhere.

This retained excess energy will go to blocked places in your body and your mind and recover the aliveness of those areas. It will go to and remove blocks in your “energy body” and uproot any sub-conscious blocks – leaving you healthier and more alive.

If you intend to use “Breathwork” to permanently heal an issue, improve your Well-being and for Self-discovery, you will need to Build Up and RETAIN more energy than you usually keep. This means you have to interrupt your Breathing Control System, by CHOOSING to build up energy, through breathing and awareness, and REFRAINING from using up the increased energy, which you do by keeping your body and mind – Conscious, Still and Relaxed.

Breaking the Breathing Control System will complete incomplete traumatic energy blockages and open up space for your Life-force to enliven your Well-being and conscious success and happiness.

Excerpt from the Natural Breathing Own Your Self Manual.

There are some occasions where your breathing pattern changes by itself and you are made to breathe in a different way than your regular breathing. These occasions are when you sigh or yawn; you fall asleep; you exert yourself, like running; you are emotional; you laugh; you are excited; etc.

When you investigate what happens to your breathing during these occasions you will find that they all include some of the 5 Breathing Basics, but none of them include all 5 at the same time.

Natural Breathing INCLUDES ALL of these 5 Breathing Basics at the same time. When you do all these Characteristics together, you’ll RETAIN more Life-force in your body, than you usually have. This uproots engages holding back and raise your Success Tolerance and Well-being.

A Natural Breathing Session starts with jump-starting the 5 Breathing Basics, like using a starter to get your engine going, by mimicking the 5 Breathing Basics.

———————————————–

The 1st BREATHING BASIC
– CHOOSING AWARENESS

• Awareness means to have a sensation or experience of BEING, here and now. 
• Awareness is not an idea, thought, try or observation.
• You are aware when you have an experience.

———————————————–

The 2nd BREATHING BASIC
– BREATHE WITH YOUR CHEST

• Your lungs are what you breathe with, and they are located in your chest.
• Your rib-cage is built to change size as evidenced by the chest being constructed with ribs and space between the ribs. There are also muscles between your ribs, that can make your rib-cage change size and thus inflate and deflate your lungs.
• Starting your inhale with your diaphragm doesn’t happen naturally, when you sigh, exert yourself or have an emotion. Breathing starting with your diaphragm can only be activated through your thinking, manipulating your breathing.
• When you yawn or sigh, fall asleep, laugh, are emotional or exert yourself your chest is expanding and collapsing with the breathing.

———————————————–

The 3rd BREATHING BASIC
– BREATHE FULLY

• Filling your lungs fully, provides all the benefits of oxygenating the body and living life with passion, excitement, and charisma.
• Because of the low breathing set-point, to practice Natural Breathing you need to INHALE MORE THAN YOU ARE INCLINED TO.

———————————————–

The 4th BREATHING BASIC
– BREATHE CONTINUOUSLY

• Breathing Continuously means that you connect your inhale and exhale in a continuous manner, like when you fall asleep and when you run.
• A PASSIONATE CONTINUOUS RHYTHM and A GOOD TEMPO happens when you are excited or when you exert yourself, like when you run and are eager and excited.

———————————————–

The 5th BREATHING BASIC
– BE RELAXED

Being Relaxed means that you RETAIN the Life-force that Natural Breathing builds up.

Make sure you don’t waste your increased Source Energy and refrain from:

• Holding or pushing your Exhale.
• Physically tensing or moving your body.
• Mentally being distracted with thinking or worrying, or “trying to breathe”.

———————————————–

* Caution – Do not do these 5 Breathing Basics on your own without first having been trained by a Natural Breathing Coach.
