Alright,
Welcome to this session.
Today we're doing two types of breathing.
Kalabhati breathing,
Which sounds like this.
Just forceful exhales through the nostrils to a beat and then we're doing alkaline breathing.
Deep inhale through the nostrils,
Exhale through the mouth.
We'll do a little breath hold after every round.
30 seconds,
45 seconds and then a whole minute.
Enjoy it,
Follow the beat,
Follow my rhythm.
I'll be with you through the whole thing.
Starting with that Kalabhati breathing first.
Here we go.
That's it.
Just forceful exhales through the nostrils.
You got it.
Get that rhythm,
Get that beat.
Start to enjoy it.
Warm up that diaphragm.
Feel free to move with the beat,
With the music.
That's why it's there.
Good job.
That's halfway through this first round.
Yeah,
You got the hang of it now.
Let's go.
This breath work is going to make you feel energized,
But we got to put in the energy first.
All right,
Coming up on that first breath hold.
Nothing to worry about.
30 seconds.
I'll be with you through the whole thing.
Here we go.
Three,
Two,
One.
Breathe out,
Straight into that breath hold.
Enjoy the calm now.
That lovely juxtaposition between the frantic activity to now just chilling,
Relaxing.
Notice if there's tension anywhere in the body and just let it go.
It's all good.
All right,
That recovery breath coming in.
In three,
Two,
One.
Hold that breath.
Replenish yourself.
And exhale out.
Well done.
Second round,
Alkaline breathing.
Here we go.
Inhales through the nostrils.
Let the air fall out through the mouth.
You're doing great.
Totally normal if you start to feel your temperature increase.
You may even start to feel a bit light-headed.
If you do,
Make sure you're seated.
All right,
We're going to take a few more breaths now.
You may even start to feel a bit light-headed.
If you do,
Make sure you're seated.
All right,
That's halfway through that round.
You're doing great.
Keep it coming.
All right,
Here we go.
Deep breath in and out.
Straight into that breath hold.
Enjoy it.
Enjoy that peace,
That tranquility.
It's like being underwater.
Now we've got one more round after this.
It's going to be Kalabhati breathing.
Normal speed,
Then double speed.
Straight into alkaline breathing.
Normal speed,
Then double speed.
And then it's your last breath hold.
It'll be a full minute.
I know you got this.
Enjoy this little calm period now,
Because we've got one last push coming up.
Recovery breath coming in.
Three,
Two,
One.
And enjoy.
Feel that air just replenish you.
Feel that air just replenish you.
Okay,
Get ready to exhale.
Straight into Kalabhati.
Let's go.
You know what we're doing here.
Really get that diaphragm to work.
Good work.
Here we go.
Here we go.
Get ready.
We're going to shift into double speed.
In three,
Two,
One.
A little bit harder to keep up.
Do your best.
It's like a real workout for the lungs.
If you've got the energy,
You can dance with the music too.
All right,
Go into alkaline breathing in three,
Two,
One.
Good job.
All right,
Get ready.
Ten seconds,
Then we're going to switch this alkaline breathing to double speed.
You got it.
That's it.
Last bit of work for us before that breath hold.
Here we go.
Double time.
I know it's tough.
Keep it up though.
You're so close to the end.
Deep breath in and out.
Deep breath in and out.
Use those lungs.
Use that belly.
Last breath coming up and in.
Out straight into that breath hold.
All right,
Relax everything in your body that's going to help with this breath hold.
Scan your head.
Your face,
Your shoulders,
Your torso,
Your legs,
Your feet,
Your hands.
Let all those muscles go.
Good job.
Just enjoy it.
If you need to breathe before I give the cue,
Totally cool.
Fast approaching that last 10 seconds.
Here we go.
All right,
That recovery breath coming up.
Three,
Two,
One.
Man,
Doesn't that taste great?
That little breath of victory.
Congratulate yourself.
Enjoy this triumphant breath.
And exhale.
All right,
Well done for being here with me.
I love taking you through these exercises.
I love taking you through these.
We've got a couple more beginner sessions out there.
You're welcome to do this one again if you enjoyed it.
Work up.
But we've got other ones too.
And when you feel ready,
We've also got intermediate and advanced.
All covered just for you.
If you enjoyed this,
Please consider leaving me a review.
Letting me know that you enjoyed it.
And that you're a breathwork master.
This was Breathe to the Beat.
And I can't wait to see you soon.
