In our past lives, we have experienced many different lifetimes. In this current life, unresolved karma from previous lifetimes often carries over as challenges we must face.

Additionally, the beliefs we form through encounters with people, our life experiences, everyday habits, tendencies, and preferences all significantly impact our health and the events that occur in our lives.

Beyond this, invisible energies—such as qi or spiritual vibrations from the external world—can also influence our physical well-being and life experiences. These influences can be either divine blessings or harmful disturbances from negative forces.

The brain, as a new organ formed in each lifetime, has limited functions. All the knowledge and memories accumulated in past lives are erased when we are reborn, and thus, we start anew with a clean slate. Our five senses are also limited in their capacity.

For this reason, it’s impossible for our brain to fully grasp the true nature of our being, where we go when we die, what happens to our consciousness once it leaves the body, and how we are reborn into a new life.

However, our soul is different. Unlike the brain or the body, the soul is our true essence that transcends lifetimes. It knows the entire flow of our past lives. This information from our previous lives is stored in the "subtle body" or Sukshma Sharira, as described in yogic philosophy.

Earlier, We outlined seven key elements that are generally important for health and beauty. But, We presented seven special factors that also impact our life and health on a deeper, spiritual level.

My purpose was not to seek a theoretical explanation for each person's health or life, but rather to understand what life itself is through my own experiences.
I wanted to discover a way of living, and methods that ensure both health and inner peace, from birth until death.

When I turned twenty, I became deeply attracted to the body techniques and meditation practices from places like India, East Asia, and Japan. This led me to study them deeply over many years. What fascinated me the most was the relationship between breathing and the mind, as well as breathing and the body. I wasn’t satisfied with the breathing techniques found in general books, so I experimented with various breathing methods on my own body, constantly refining them.

Through these experiments, I came to the realization that there is a fundamental element of life that goes beyond physical matter—something we can call life energy. I also realized that the three essential components of life are the soul, life energy, and the mind-body connection.

Human bodies are inherently different in terms of physical constitution and abilities, and the events we experience in life vary from person to person. Several factors can contribute to these differences, such as:

1. Physical and psychological inheritance from parents and ancestors
2. Influences from past lives and karma
3. The country and environment in which one is born
4. The environment and relationships in which one is raised
5. The beliefs and habits formed in this lifetime
6. External influences (such as qi or spiritual vibrations)
7. The fundamental purpose for which the soul has taken on a physical body in this lifetime

The Individual Differences in Health and Life

When it comes to health and beauty, I believe there’s something more fundamentally important that we need to consider.

Life is full of mysteries. For instance, when we think about people’s health and life span, some individuals are born with strong, healthy bodies and live happily without ever experiencing serious illness, while others are born with physical disabilities. Additionally, it’s not uncommon for children or young adults to suddenly fall ill with incurable diseases and pass away. Some people who appear to be in good health may suddenly develop a severe illness, while non-smokers can still be diagnosed with lung cancer, and highly fit athletes may unexpectedly collapse from serious diseases.

On the other hand, there are people who, despite daily habits of drinking alcohol, smoking, and not paying much attention to their diet, live joyfully and healthily past 100 years of age.

The same puzzling questions arise when we consider accidents and disasters. Some people live their lives without ever experiencing misfortune, while others, who were happy and healthy just yesterday, suddenly face fatal accidents and lose their lives. It’s a heartbreaking reality. When confronted with the unfairness of such fates, we are forced to reflect deeply.

From a young age, I have found it deeply puzzling how people’s health, life circumstances, and destinies vary so widely, even though we are all born into this world equally. Why are there such significant differences between individuals?

Some proponents of genetic determinism argue that genes not only influence our physical and psychological traits but also affect the events that occur in our lives—such as the likelihood of accidents or disasters. In other words, they believe that genes control not just our physical characteristics but also our destiny, impacting how we handle life’s circumstances and environments. While this theory might hold some truth, it is important to recognize that genetics is just one of many factors influencing our lives.

However, my purpose has never been to seek a scientific explanation for the diverse ways in which people experience health and life. Instead, my aim has always been to understand what life truly is through personal experience, and to discover a way of living that allows us to achieve consistent health and peace of mind throughout our lifetime.

Thank you all for your amazing support and for following the Breath Dojo Meditation and Breathwork Center! We appreciate each and every one of you.

Things to Keep in Mind in Daily Life

First, let’s outline some basic things that are generally considered important for health and beauty. While these may be well-known topics, they provide an opportunity to reconsider how we can be more mindful of them in our daily lives. You will likely find similar points detailed in books in the health section of bookstores.

1. Ensure you get enough sleep.
2. Maintain a balanced diet and avoid harmful foods.
3. Establish a habit of moderate exercise and body care.
4. Avoid overexertion in work or studies.
5. Be mindful of not accumulating stress in your relationships.
6. Connect with nature and breathe in fresh air.
7. Value hobbies and creative activities to enrich your mind.

These seven points are indeed fundamental and significant. In particular, getting enough sleep and being mindful of your diet and physical activity are crucial for maintaining good health.

Now, let’s pause this rather ordinary discussion about health and beauty. From here, I would like to share a different perspective on what is most important for health and aging care while also introducing the Breathing Training Method.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝟔 : 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝟕 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐫𝐚𝐬

This breathing technique aims to regulate, activate, and further open the Kundalini pathway by adjusting the life force energy of the 7 bodies. Below are the steps to practice this technique while sitting on a chair with an elongated spine:

𝟏.Begin by performing 2-3 rounds of deep breathing starting with exhaling. This process rejuvenates the body's life force and cleanses the energy pathways. Focus on exhaling deeply and completely, while allowing the inhalation to occur naturally. Repeat this process 2-3 times.

𝟐.Next, raise both hands high, envisioning cosmic life force energy descending from the heavens and entering the body from the crown chakra (Sahasrara) as you inhale through the nose.

𝟑.As the cosmic life force energy enters from the crown chakra, reaching the brow chakra (Ajna), throat chakra (Vishuddha), and heart chakra (Anahata), your breath becomes full. Once your breath is full, gently exhale through the mouth while lowering your hands. The cosmic life force energy descends from the heart chakra to the lower chakras - Manipura, Svadhisthana, and Muladhara. At this point, the life energy has descended through the body.

𝟒.Now, it's time to ascend the life force energy. Perform a 7-stage inhalation from Muladhara chakra to Sahasrara chakra, known as staged inhalation. Staged inhalation involves inhaling a small amount of breath, holding it, inhaling again, holding it, and repeating until reaching the final stage. Do not exhale until reaching the last stage. As you perform staged inhalation, raise your hands aligned with each chakra. Start with Muladhara, inhale and hold, then Svadhisthana, and continue this pattern until you reach Sahasrara, where your breath becomes full.

𝟓.Exhale the full breath forcefully from Sahasrara chakra, returning it to the heavens. Visualize the energy returning from the crown to the sky as you exhale. This completes one cycle.

𝟔.Repeat 2 through 5 a total of 3 cycles consecutively. If you feel tired, you can take breaks between each cycle. Alternatively, practicing only once or twice instead of three times is also acceptable.

𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝟕 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐫𝐚𝐬:

This technique aims to open the Kundalini pathway and facilitate communication between the physical and subtle bodies' life force energy. Physically, it enhances lung vitality and promotes the activation of blood circulation and organ functions. As you become more proficient, try extending the duration of breath retention during staged inhalation, aiming for durations of 3 to 10 seconds. Ensure that the duration of breath retention is relatively consistent at each stage.

We have received inquiries from a musician regarding breathing techniques that can improve performance skills. The lung vitality and respiratory muscle performance that musicians possess significantly influence the quality of wind instrument performance and vocal improvement.

Let me explain the difference between lung capacity and lung vitality. Lung capacity refers to the volume of air the lungs can hold, while lung vitality refers to the strength and performance of lung function. Lung capacity remains relatively constant in adulthood and cannot be significantly increased. However, even individuals with low lung capacity can increase lung vitality through appropriate breathing technique training, thereby maximizing lung function.

The breathing exercises we are about to introduce are techniques aimed at enhancing lung function, strength, and ultimately lung vitality. By efficiently training the diaphragm, abdominal muscles, intercostal muscles, and other respiratory accessory muscles, respiratory strength increases.

Breath Dojo has witnessed cases of improved performance skills in wind instrument players and enhancements in vocal volume and quality in singers through the practice of such breathing techniques aimed at strengthening respiratory power.

Of course, such breathing techniques also yield significant positive effects on health and disease prevention. The benefits of having good breathing patterns and strong respiratory muscles include enhanced immune function, improved blood circulation, and improved functions related to digestion, metabolism, and detoxification. Furthermore, strengthening the respiratory muscle group contributes to overall physical strength and stamina.

Furthermore, while we focus on the physical benefits here, it goes without saying that the effects of unseen life force energy, such as its wavelength, enrich both the mind and body.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝟓: 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐃𝐲𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐁𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠
Please practice this technique while sitting on a chair on an empty stomach.

The continuous breath-holding method at 20%, 50%, and 100% of lung capacity is a training method aimed at controlling breathing and improving lung vitality and functionality. It is conducted according to the following steps:

𝟏. 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐞𝐱𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: First, as a preparatory stage, perform several deep breaths starting from exhalation. This is very simple: simply take a deep breath from the exhale. However, try to make the exhalation as long as possible and the inhalation swift.

𝟐. 𝟐𝟎% 𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡-𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝: After the final deep breath of preparation, exhale completely and then inhale and hold about 20% of the lung's air. When you start to feel slightly uncomfortable, exhale. While exhaling, be sure to keep your mouth narrow like a straw, apply pressure to release the air, and engage your abdominal muscles, tightening them as you exhale fully.

𝟑. 𝟓𝟎% 𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡-𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝: After exhaling completely, inhale and hold about 50% of the lung's air. Hold until you feel sufficiently uncomfortable, then exhale. While exhaling, be sure to keep your mouth narrow like a straw, apply pressure to release the air, and engage your abdominal muscles, tightening them as you exhale fully.

𝟒. 𝟏𝟎𝟎% 𝐥𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐜𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡-𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐝: After exhaling completely, inhale to completely fill the lungs with air and hold your breath. Hold until you reach the limit of discomfort, then exhale. While exhaling, be sure to keep your mouth narrow like a straw, apply pressure to release the air, and engage your abdominal muscles, tightening them as you exhale fully.

It is effective to repeat this technique after a 5-minute break. Alternatively, you may practice twice a day with at least a 6-hour interval between sessions. However, always practice on an empty stomach in both cases. Do not practice when feeling unwell or feverish. When practicing this technique, adjust the intensity and frequency of training according to your physical condition and health status.

This method improves lung vitality and strengthens respiratory muscles such as the diaphragm, abdominal muscles, intercostal muscles, and other accessory respiratory muscles. 𝐀𝐬 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐥𝐭, 𝐬𝐮𝐛𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞, 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

In this technique, perform breath-holding three times in a row for each breath. Try to make the breath-holding time longer for the second attempt than the first, and longer for the third attempt than the second. It is convenient to use a stopwatch or a clock with a second hand.

For example, start with 20 seconds for the first attempt, 35 seconds for the second, and 50 seconds for the third. As you become accustomed, challenge yourself to hold your breath for 30 seconds for the first attempt, 45 seconds for the second, and 1 minute for the third.

By gradually increasing the breath-holding time while training daily, you can develop excellent lung vitality and strong respiratory muscles. By practicing this technique for about a month, you will feel positive changes in your instrument playing technique or vocal quality. Commit to it as a long-term daily routine.

Qigong (Taoism) and Buddhism tend to have fewer religious concepts, such as the existence of the soul or belief in God. These traditions focus on the harmony of the body and mind, inner stability, and the pursuit of enlightenment. They emphasize exploring their inner potential without relying on concepts like God or eternal souls.

For example, Siddhartha Gautama, the founder of Buddhism, did not discuss the existence of the soul. Buddhism and Taoism seek enlightenment and unity with nature through self-cultivation. In these practices, individual effort and self-discipline are emphasized, and gods or spirits are seen as supportive entities. The approach involves grounding themselves, establishing selfhood, and ultimately transcending the self, aiming for unity with enlightenment or the Tao. As a result, the focus of the energy center descends, with particular emphasis on the Dantian.

On the other hand, yoga, originally influenced by Hinduism, places importance on the connection with God and devotion. In the practice of yoga, the traditional approach involves seeking ascent to sacred dimensions and unity with God through faith. The concept of upward movement is associated with the activation of chakras and the rise of energy, seen as a spiritual phenomenon leading to the awakening of the soul and unity with God.

Therefore, as yoga evolved into a sacred practice, Kundalini Yoga, in particular, gained attention. This practice involves the awakening of energy, known as Kundalini, at the base of the spine, leading to the ascent of the spinal energy and the promotion of integration between the mind and body, aiming for higher states of consciousness. In yoga practices focused on faith and the growth of the soul, the ascent of Kundalini is believed to lead to the awakening of the soul and unity with God.

The different approaches arising from the inner exploration of individuals and the faith-based surrender of the mind and body have led to the development of distinct life force energy systems in each body technique. However, despite the different approaches, the ultimate goal is common.

Through enlightenment, unity with the Tao, the awakening of the soul, and unity with God, these traditions share the common objective of transcending the self. While different life force energy systems and philosophies enrich each respective journey, they collectively pave the way for unified growth and deepening.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝟓: 𝐓𝐚𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐌𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧
(Dan Tian Meditation)

When doubts and concerns arise in the mind, and answers seem elusive, practicing this meditation can bring profound insights from a greater existence. When faced with worries or dilemmas, engage in this meditation. When the mind becomes still, pose your questions to the greater existence. The answers you receive will be understood as the best and most optimal insights obtained from the universe, not just your personal thoughts.

Confirm the basic position of the lower dantian and nurture the energy within. Breathe through the nose. The dantian, located three inches below the navel, is the central hub of life force energy.

① Sit comfortably with an extended spine. Close your eyes about seven to eight-tenths, allowing a little light to enter (closing the eyes is acceptable, but be mindful of drowsiness and distractions). Direct your awareness to the lower dantian.

② During inhalation, imagine 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐬𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐲 𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐚𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧, 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐱𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐯𝐢𝐬𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐬𝐦𝐢𝐜 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲, 𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲. As you exhale, feel the breath not leaving the lower dantian, but rather disappearing inward, and imagine the vital life force energy permeating your entire being.

③ Always keep your awareness on the lower dantian. Remember to observe the movement of cosmic life force energy during inhalation and exhalation.

④ If you notice distractions, promptly redirect your focus to the dantian and the flow of breath.

Dantian cultivation is commonly associated with strengthening the constitution, preventing illness, and facilitating healing effects. It enhances the activation and adjustment of life force energy in the dantian, microcosmic self, and the purification of energy pathways.

In Zen breathing practices, there is a meditation that involves focusing on the dantian. In Chinese Qigong, this technique is known as "Yi Shou Dan Tian" or "Guarding the Dantian." This meditation can be enjoyed anywhere, making it accessible during breaks or when on the go.

Embrace Tanden Meditation to connect with the universe, fostering inner serenity and gaining profound insights.

In ancient times, when human lifespans were shorter, various methods for maintaining health and seeking longevity were devised. It became evident that the energy of life is brought about through breath, leading to the development of breathing techniques that not only focus on natural breathing but also involve understanding the energy state within the body and the flow of qi. The practice aimed to harness abundant life force energy within the body.

Ancient Chinese Qigong traditions emphasized the role of the lower abdomen's "dantian" in conjunction with breath, recognizing the importance of strengthening this mechanism. This philosophy spread to the Korean Peninsula and Japan, where the belief in the soul residing in the abdomen is prevalent, especially in Japanese martial arts. Dantian is divided into upper, middle, and lower sections, with the lower dantian considered a spiritual spot inside, seen as a fundamental power spot in the body.

Yoga incorporates a breathing technique known as "Pranayama." Unlike the concept of Dantian, which posits an energy center in the lower abdomen about three inches below the navel, yoga introduces the notion of a spiritual body called the "subtle body," which coexists with the physical body. The activation and integration of these bodies involve the functioning of seven "Chakras." Additionally, the understanding that the "Atman" (soul) governs both the physical and spiritual bodies has become widespread.

In the philosophy of Dantian, it is believed that the soul gives rise to the Dantian or is considered equivalent to the Dantian, and from the Dantian, energy is believed to be distributed to the body and mind. On the other hand, in the concept of Chakras, it is believed that the soul possesses multiple spiritual bodies, and Chakras function as energy relay stations to activate and integrate these bodies.

Thus, dantian and chakras exist in different spiritual realms within the body. Chakras act as relays for energy working on each subtle body, while dantian resides deeper than the subtle body, functioning as a direct locus of the soul and serving as the fundamental headquarters of energy, governing all bodies.

In Yoga, there are theories of Chakras and Kundalini, while Buddhism and Qigong focus on Dantian and Qi. In the research at Breath Dojo, we believe that the origins of these differences lie in the influence of ancient Hinduism and Buddhism or the distinctions between the paths of prayer and meditation, affecting the practices of each body technique. We look forward to delving deeper into this topic in the future.

𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗧𝗲𝗰𝗵𝗻𝗶𝗾𝘂𝗲 𝟰: 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝗳 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝗰𝗲 𝗘𝗻𝗲𝗿𝗴𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗜𝗺𝗺𝘂𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘆.

Strengthen your diaphragm and enhance your respiratory power. Simultaneously, by momentarily holding your breath, increase the carbon dioxide levels in your body, stimulating the activation of mitochondrial cellular respiration, and boosting the life force energy and immunity of your body. It is recommended to practice this method on an empty stomach (at least 4 hours after eating).

Historically, breath-holding has been regarded as a technique to enhance life force energy. Traditional body techniques in East Asia, such as yoga and internal alchemy, incorporate various breath-holding respiratory exercises. The effectiveness of these methods was understood and experienced by ancient yogis and practitioners of life force energy preservation.

In the 20th century, in 1903, Danish physiologist Christian Bohr discovered that an increase in carbon dioxide levels in the body's tissues prompts hemoglobin in the blood to actively supply oxygen to the mitochondria inside cells. This phenomenon is known as the Bohr effect.

This discovery scientifically validates the effectiveness of breathing exercises, a wisdom passed down by our ancestors. Adequate carbon dioxide levels in the body were identified as a crucial factor in supplying sufficient oxygen to body cells.

The activation of mitochondria is said to enhance the life force energy and immunity of cells, with potential effects on the prevention and inhibition of cancer.

1. Sit quietly in a normal breathing state. Exhale slowly through the mouth at any time. When the exhalation naturally stops, squeeze your abdomen a little more to exhale a bit further.

2. Once exhaled completely, hold your breath.

3. Hold your breath until just before it becomes uncomfortable. It should not be excessively challenging.

4. After holding your breath for a moderate duration, inhale slowly through the nose until your lungs are filled to the maximum. Imagine energy rising quietly from the coccyx or a**l area to the crown of your head.

5. Once the inhaled breath is full, exhale slowly through the mouth. Repeat steps 2-4 three times. End the third round by inhaling fully.

Repeat this process three times in a row. The duration of breath-holding should be until shortly before it becomes uncomfortable. Perform the exercise at a level where you do not become fatigued, as it is done continuously three times.

For those with extra energy, practicing four or five rounds in one session is also acceptable. Additionally, performing this method two to three times a day with intervals is recommended.

Exhalation requires more effort than inhalation. To prevent shallow breathing due to lack of exercise or aging, improve exhalation strength with this respiratory training technique.

Even those in good health are believed to be more susceptible to illness when emotionally unstable. Excessive tension heightens stress reactions, negatively impacting bodily functions.

Conversely, those facing illness can experience a quicker recovery and a return to vitality by maintaining a generous mindset and adopting a mentally stable lifestyle. Suppression of emotional fluctuations and consistent practice of the Body-Life Energy Training Method for 50 or 100 days significantly enhance overall mental and physical health.

In medical experiments, comparing the level of relaxation in the body and mind between regular rest and a meditative state induced by breathing exercises revealed that individuals consciously practicing breathing techniques experienced a decrease in heart rate, a reduction in beta brain waves, and an increase in alpha brain waves. Additionally, applying breathing techniques in clinical situations for patients with hypertension resulted in controlled blood pressure.

Breath Dojo provides many excellent methods to activate life force energy. Training the body's life force energy not only enhances the harmony of the mind and body, fostering overall well-being, but also fortifies your constitution. Stay tuned as we plan to introduce various techniques on this page in the future. Enjoy the journey!

For the pursuit of health and beauty, why not experience the meditative breathing exercise? This technique cultivates awareness in the sensory body, contributing to both health and beauty.

𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐝𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐓𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞 𝟑: 𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐤𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲

The word "Lenko" refers to nurturing the life force energy. ❞𝐀𝐧 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝. 𝐋𝐢𝐤𝐞𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐞, 𝐚 𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝.❞

In ancient Indian philosophy, the terms Sukshma Sharira and Karana Sharira refer to spiritual bodies distinct from the material form, often translated as subtle bodies or causal bodies. According to the body theory in Yoga and Ayurveda, these spiritual bodies, four in total, exist separately from the material body and overlap with it.

Among them, the Etheric Body is a spiritual body that exists immediately within the physical body, overseeing sensory and emotional functions, closely influencing physical health and illness.

Ancient sayings like "Health and illness originate from the mind" emphasize the significant role of mental states and stress in causing most illnesses. The suppression of the natural senses of the mind and body due to attitudes and stress leads to physical discomfort and diseases.

Therefore, for the sake of health and beauty, try Lenko for the Etheric Body to enrich the life force energy of this subtle body. This meditative breathing exercise directs awareness inward.

1. Sit comfortably or lie on your back to relax your body, allowing your breath to flow naturally.

2. While breathing deeply and leisurely, close your eyes and feel the inner sensations, savoring the warmth from within.

3. Feel the inner body as you initiate deep and slow breaths, being conscious of the inner body inhaling deeply and exhaling slowly. Maintain awareness of the inner body during both inhalation and exhalation.

4. If you notice your mind entangled in thoughts during the practice, immediately shift your focus back to the inner body sensations and breath. Practice this for approximately 15 to 20 minutes, using a timer if helpful.

In our daily lives, our consciousness is often entangled in incessant thoughts. Consequently, our attention seldom turns towards our bodies in routine situations. 𝐇𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐛𝐲 𝐩𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐡𝐧𝐢𝐪𝐮𝐞, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐜 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧, 𝐞𝐧𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐮𝐭𝐲.

For instance, during moments of excitement, joy, or anticipation, a refreshing energy activates within the inner body. People tend to appear beautiful and healthy during such times. It is also said that people become more beautiful when they fall in love. That's because there is a fresh energy welling up from within.

This meditative breathing exercise activates the inner body's energy independent of external stimuli, fostering a beautiful and healthy mind-body. It is effective for fatigue recovery and suitable after workouts or sports activities.

Moreover, this technique's application allows you to observe the body from within using the mind's eye (clairvoyance). You can guide the inner energy to specific body parts, areas of concern, or affected areas, infusing them with the breath of life and enriching them. Embrace this meditative breathing exercise as a means to cultivate a healthy and beautiful daily life.
