Breath of Life to Revitalise
In this downloadable recording, I guide you through how to practice the Breath of Life.
As taught by Uma Dinsmore-Tuli, this breath practice is also known as the Full Yogic Breath. It’s the basis of all yoga breathing. It’s also the natural breathing pattern we were born with, and could’ve gradually forgotten, as stress and tension can deviate us from breathing fully.
The Breath of Life has three areas of focus: abdominal breath, chest breath, and up to the collarbones. We focus on each individual body part, and cumulatively build into a complete breathing pattern.
When we reconnect to this breath, we remind our bodies how to breathe effectively to get enough oxygen and sufficiently clear carbon dioxide. This is why it can be used to increase energy levels and vitality.
As we bring conscious awareness to the breath, we improve our breath capacity and allow for conscious expansion so it can become second nature. Once breathing this way becomes familiar, and part of our daily lives, we can impact our general wellbeing. To begin with, it can be helpful to set yourself a specific time in the day when you intentionally take 5 minutes to listen and follow the recording.
You can do this practice from a comfortable and appropriate resting position. It’s often easier to begin lying down and, once it becomes familiar, you can do it in any posture or even on the move with your little one.
