Two
extremely easy methods to automate the deep breathing unconsciously.
There are
many benefits of Deep breathing. However, very few of us are able to draw
these wonderful benefits
for the simple reason that most of us breathe in a staccato jerks,
shallow and aimless manner.
We have become so used of this shallow breathing that it seems very
natural to breath in this aimless way. Since barring a rare few among
us, almost
everybody of us breathe in this shallow manner, it is difficult to
believe that we can easily adopt a continuous, unconscious habit of deep
breathing very easily.
Whenever we give attention to our breathing and make some conscious
effort to lengthen it, we easily start breathing deeply. However,
as soon as our mind wanders in some other mental activity ( i.e. as soon
as we become unconscious of the breathing process which happens almost
always), we return to the 'shallow breathing mode'. This is the
main problem among those who want to make deep breathing a part of their
life. Let us discuss this problem and then its remedy:
The
problem:
" We have an habit of shallow breathing. As a result of which we are not
able to inhale enough oxygen and exhale enough Carbon Dioxide from body.
This resulted into a situation known as 'permanent oxygen
starvation' resulting in 'permanent lack of energy' "
This
problem is very old and has been rooted very deeply in our unconscious
mind. Since we spend most of our time totally oblivious of the breathing
process (which goes on its own just like other vital activities of body
such as pumping of blood by heart, the digestion and other internal
metabolism etc ) it is difficult to change this
unconscious process of shallow breathing. However, it is not impossible
and can be done easily if we make some sincere effort for
it.
The Solution:
Two
extremely easy method to automate the deep breathing unconsciously.
Here
I will tell you how you can learn to assimilate on a permanent basis the
habit of deep breathing so that you can breath deeply even in the
unconscious state.
There
are two methods by which you can learn deep breathing : The first is Pause Breath
Method and the other is Pavlov Method
(1)
The Pause Breath Method
: This
is a super powerful and extremely easy technique for start learning deep
breathing - continuously and unconsciously ! This method is not only
an extremely useful way of learning deep breathing, it is also an
excellent meditation technique by itself By using this technique, you can
start breathing deeply right now !
(2)
The Pavlov Method :
I call this method 'Pavlov Method' after the name of Great Russian
Scientist Ivan Pavlov (1849-1936). Pavlov introduced to the world the
concept of 'conditioned reflexes' . We will take the help
of these 'conditioned reflexes' to make an unconscious habit of deep
breathing.
Both the above two methods are equally
effective and useful in learning Deep breathing. We shall learn them one
by one.
