Welcome to a jonesing for breathwork and meditation.
Today,
We're going to learn and work on our breath.
So find a position that's comfortable for you,
Whether that's seated or laying down whatever works.
And then when you are there,
Close your eyes and start to breathe.
Breathing in through your nose and exhaling through your nose or mouth.
Bring your mind's focus to your breath.
The sensation as you inhale,
The air going through your nostrils,
Filling up your lungs,
And then exhaling.
Imagine focusing on a single particle as you breathe in and following it throughout your breathing process.
One more breath where you're following a single particle.
By working on your breath,
You are training not only your body,
But your mind.
Our mind always wants to jump around and focusing on one thing at a time,
It's hard.
It's a challenge.
But by practicing it,
You can improve and get stronger and be able to focus your mind,
Which provides many,
Many health benefits.
And along with the mental benefits,
You get the physical benefits from getting a deeper breath,
Giving your body more oxygen that it needs to live and thrive,
And helping your lungs be strong,
Massaging your internal organs and so much more.
Now we'll shift our focus a little bit,
Still on the breath,
But work on controlling the breath by doing a breath hold.
So we'll breathe in for four counts.
We will hold for four counts,
Then exhale for four counts.
Have a short rest and then repeat it.
Let's dive in.
Exhale all your air.
Inhale for four counts.
Nice,
Low and deep breath.
Three,
Four,
Now hold.
Two,
Three,
Four,
Exhale.
Good job.
Let's do that again.
Breathe in.
Hold.
Two,
Keep holding now.
Exhale.
Good job.
We'll do it one more time.
But before we begin,
When you inhale,
Fill up your lungs,
Filling up the bottom part of your lungs,
Your stomach first,
And then stacking it up on the rest.
Filling yourself up and then as you exhale,
Exhale from your stomach first,
All the way up to your chest.
Let's change it a little bit and do six count.
Inhale,
Hold and exhale.
Here we go.
Exhale everything you have.
Inhale for six.
Three,
Four,
Five,
Six.
Good job.
Now hold.
Two,
You got this.
Four,
Five,
Exhale.
This is just a simple breath hold you can do.
If you're feeling stressed,
Or even if you're not,
And you just want to improve your breath and bring your mind to focus,
Training your mind,
Go back to these breath works.
Give them a shot.
They can happen and work any time in the day.
And these are just one style.
This is just one style.
You can do a,
You know,
A one to one ratio or a one three two ratio or whatever.
Have fun with it.
Play around with it.
Always do it on dry land,
Not in the pool or anything like that.
But work on training your mind and your body with breath work.
You may open your eyes and come back.
