😮‍💨 The quality of our breath reflects the quality and length of our lives. 😮‍💨

Did you know that the normal rhythm of breathing - 15 rounds per minute correlates to 75 or 80 years of life! 👀
Ten rounds per minute lengthens life to about 100 YEARS! 💯

This correlation can be seen in nature by the life span of animals in comparison to their breath rates. For example, dogs breathe quickly and live for only about 12 years whereas tortoises breathe very slowly and live for more than 100 years.
The norm today in the fast paced world is quick, shallow breathing, which is the cause of ageing and many other imbalances.

In normal unconscious breathing, only half a litre (500mls) of air is moved in and out of the lungs, therefore only a small amount of air is exchanged, as compared to the total capacity of the lungs.
This means that on a regular basis, we are only getting a small amount of oxygen and carbon dioxide exchange, therefore not properly feeding our brains and bodies with fresh oxygen, which is vital to life and health.
Excess carbon dioxide and lack of oxygen in the body are responsible for many health issues.

However, when yogic breathing is utilized, there is the capacity to take in up to 5 litres of air, thereby enhancing expansion of the lungs and supporting healthy body functions.
The deeper breath expands the lungs, so that more alveolar membrane becomes available for gas exchange, expelling more toxins from the body and increasing the capacity for fresh oxygen to feed it.

To learn more about the often-overlooked yet vital role of breathing in our lives and the wonderful benefits it offers, follow our weekly posts, in which we explore Pranayama - the yogic art of breathing from a slightly different perspective than in our last series. ⭐️

“It is not easy to get rid of karma, and every man is subject to it. The more you push a pendulum to the right, the more it will swing to the left, then again to the right- action and reaction. No action in life goes unpaid and you can't hide anything from yourself. You are your own witness and observer. You know what you think, feel and do and you know your real intentions. By observing yourself, you can control your karma.”
~ Swami Satyananda

🍁 Autumn equinox 🍁

In the early hours of 21st March we celebrated the autumn equinox here in the southern hemisphere.

This marks the first astronomical first day of autumn meaning that starting now there will be less daylight hours with the sun rising later and setting earlier.

Autumn Equinox is like a still point where everything comes into balance, and we can begin to reflect on the lightness of our consciousness with the darkness of the shadow.

We just accept everything for what is right now or has been. We must allow ourselves to let go of what doesn’t serve us. It could be negative mental or emotional patterns, or things in our lives that don’t bring joy.

In the business of the modern day world it is important to take a moment to embrace the harmony that the autumn equinox brings and align the positive and negative aspects of the mind.
