The Yogi knows that by rhythmical breathing he may not only cure disease in himself and others, but also practically do away with fear and worry and the baser emotions.
— Yogi Ramacharaka, The Science of Breath

healing with breath

For thousands of years, cultures around the world have used breath practices to maintain vitality and health, and to help heal and transform. Breathing practices stimulate the healing response throughout all levels of the body. Unhealthy patterns are disrupted; new life-enhancing patterns can form. Breath brings in more than just oxygen; it brings in the subtle energies that sustain us. The more breath, the more energy available to our system for healing and vitality.

The power of breath is wholly understated in western healing models. And, yet, the vital role of breath is starkly obvious. Three weeks without food, three days without water, we survive. Three minutes without breath, we don’t. What does this say about the inherent power of breath?

To engage a practice of the conscious use of breath for healing and transformation is stepping into the highest, simplest, and most efficient method of systemic fine-tuning to the highest levels achievable within your current energetic-biologic matrix.
