Power of Breath Meditation
(This is a two part exercise. Feel free to do one
or both!)
Sit comfortably (either cross-legged or in a chair)
Make sure that your back is straight and chin
slightly tucked in. Place your wrists on your knees
with the palms facing up. Touch your index finger
to your thumb making a circle. This Mudra is called
"Guyan Mudra" and it fosters knowledge and
openness. Allow your eyes to close.
Phase
I - Deep Breathing (Yogic Breath)....
On the inhale, allow your abdomen to expand first,
then allow your chest to expand as your lungs fill
with air. When your lungs are comfortably filled
with air, reverse the process. On the exhale, allow
your chest to collapse first and then collapse the
abdomen and continue to comfortably contract the
abdominal muscles towards the spine pushing as much
stale air as comfortably possible and then repeat
the process. Continue like this for a few minutes
or as long as you like.
Phase
II - The 4:1 Healing Energy
Breath
In your comfortable meditating posture, with your
eyes closed, allow your attention to be drawn to
your third eye ( the area directly above the space
between your eyebrows.) With your mouth closed,
inhale completely in four distinct, smooth, gentle
"sniffs". Then, allow the breath to escape in one
long, relaxing exhale. Continue like this for as
little as 3 minutes or as long as 11minutes. (If
you are new to meditation or energetic work, take
it slow. doing too much too quickly may be more
harmful than good.)
