Question

Deep breathing is a really easy exercise that can dramatically improve
health. The main benefit of exercising is that we oxygenate our bodies by breathing
heavily. So why not just breathe deeply at various times during the day and get the
same benefits?
Breath is the foundation of all human life since it supplies oxygen to the
cells. It also controls the flow of lymph fluid, generally considered the body’s
“sewage system”, which contains white blood cells that protect the body and
cleanse the system.
If toxins are not removed effectively, the amount of oxygen your cells get is
restricted and your health is sacrificed. If your lymph system were to shut down,
you’d be dead in less than 24 hours because of excess toxins in your body.
The best method is to inhale while counting to four, hold while counting to
16, and exhale while counting to eight. If this is difficult in the beginning, inhale
while counting to two, hold while counting to eight and exhale while counting to
four. Maintain the same pattern of inhaling, holding and exhaling. Do 10 of these
three times a day, and within two weeks your energy level will be exploding!
