Taoist Breathing for Tai Chi and Meditation - 11/14: Lower Back and Kidney Breathing
Lineage holder Bruce Frantzis leads you through the eleventh lesson in a progression of 14, all of which help you to extend the length of your breath and to fully bring oxygen to the back and side of the lungs, areas rarely engaged by shallow breathers. These lessons teach you to feel your breath and to avoid holding your breath. You will also learn how to breath into different parts of your body to strengthen and massage your internal organs and spine. Understanding of these Taoist breathing techniques enables you to become aware of your emotions and deepen your meditative focus. May you practice well! Lesson 11: Lower Back and Kidneys • Begin exercise lying on back, feet flat on the floor, with knees up • Kidney breathing can be more difficult than side breathing • Importance of kidneys in Taoism and Chinese medicine
