PRINCIPLE 1: THE POWER OF BREATHING CORRECTLY

NUGGETS: 

         i.            The foundation of health is a healthy blood stream, i.e. the system that transports Oxygen and Nutrients to all cells of your body.

      ii.            If you have a healthy circulation system, you’re going to live a long healthy life.

      iii.            The environment for a healthy circulation system is the bloodstream.

     iv.            The control button for the system is BREATHING in controls the oxygenation of the cells and also controls the flow of lymph fluid.

       v.            The LYMPH FLUID/SYSTEM contains the white blood cells that protect the body. It is the body’s sewage system every cell in the body is surrounded by lymph. We have 4 times more lymph fluid than blood.

    vi.            The lymph system works like this:

(a)    The heart pumps blood through the arteries to your thin & porous capillaries.

(b)   The blood carries oxygen and nutrients to the capillaries where they are diffused into this fluid around the cells called lymph.

(c)    The cells have intelligence or affinity for what they need, so they take Oxygen & nutrient necessary for their health and excrete toxins each into the capillaries.

(d)   But then, DEAD CELLS, BLOOD PROTEINS and other TOXIC MATERIAL must be removed by the lymph system!

(e)    The lymph system is only ACTIVATED by DEEP BREATHING!

  vii.            The body’s cells depend on the lymph system (see Fig. 1) as the only way to drain off the large toxic materials and excess fluid, which restrict the amount of oxygen. The fluid passes through the lymph nodes, where dead cells and all other poison except blood proteins are neutralized and destroyed.

viii.            The bloodstream has a pump, your heart (see Fig. 2). But the lymph system doesn’t have one. The only way lymph moves is through deep breathing and muscular movement. So if you want to have a healthy bloodstream with effective lymph and immune systems, you need to breathe deeply and produce the movements that will stimulate them.

 ix.            Dr. Jack Shields, a highly regard lymphologist from Santa Barbara, California, recently conducted an interesting study of the system. He put cameras inside people’s bodies to see what stimulated cleansing of the lymph system. He found that a deep diaphragmatic breath is the most effective way to accomplish this. It creates something like a vacuum that sucks lymph through the bloodstream and multiples the pace at which the body eliminates toxins. In fact, deep breathing and exercise can accelerate this process by as much as fifteen times.

 x.             If you get nothing else from this seminar but an understanding of the importance of deep breathing, you could dramatically increase the level of your body’s health.

xi.            It’s the reason that health systems like yoga focus so much attention on healthy breathing. There’s nothing like it to cleanse your body.

 xii.            Experiments upon experiments have shown that LACK OF OXYGEN plays a major role in causing cells to become malignant and cancerous.

 xii           Your no. 1 PRIORITY is to fully oxygenate your system and BREATHING EFFECTIVELY is the place to START.

  xiv.            HOW TO BREATHE

You should breathe in this ratio: inhale one count, hold four counts. If you inhaled for four seconds, you would hold for sixteen and exhale for eight. Why exhale for twice as long as you inhale? That’s when you eliminate toxins via your lymphatics system. Why hold four times as long? That’s how you can fully oxygenate the blood and activate your lymphatic system. When you breathe, you should start from lymphatics system. When you breathe, you should start from deep in your abdomen, like a vacuum cleaner that’s getting rid of all toxins in the blood system.

  xv.            Other ways of breathing effectively include DAILY AEROBIC EXERCISE like:

a)      RUNNING:- Good, but a little stressful

b)      SWIMMING: - EXCELLENT if you can spare time occasionally.

c)      TRAMPOLILING: - the easiest and most easily accessible, putting minimal stress on your body. It is the most life-enhancing form of exercise.
