In this breathing session, we practice a simplified form of Tummo breathing. Tummo is practiced by Tibetan monks to heat up and melt the snow around their meditation spot. Simplified Tummo is my own simplified version of this rather complicated technique. I hope you enjoy it. Do NOT practice this driving a car or when you are in the water. Passing out danger.

Hello,

We're going to do 15 rounds of simplified Tumo,

Level 1.

Five times to the belly only,

Nose in,

Mouth out,

As deep as you can.

Then we breathe in and we hold for 10 seconds.

And then the last round,

Round number 15,

We will hold two or three minutes,

As long as you can.

Now,

Before we start,

I would like to do a simple test,

A self-test,

Which is the extended exhale.

So together,

We take a deep breath in and then you breathe out through the mouth,

I would want to say,

As slow as you can.

If you want to do it through the nose,

That's fine too.

As long after the 15 rounds,

We will be testing this again,

As long as you do the same before and after,

So you compare apples to apples.

So let's start with this.

Take a deep breath in.

And start breathing out as slow as you can.

I'm timing.

10 seconds.

20 seconds.

30 seconds,

Already good enough.

40 seconds.

50 seconds.

30 seconds.

50 seconds.

And one minute.

Now,

If you're still breathing out,

Your breath work tops the bar.

Let's start round number one.

Five deep breaths to the belly,

Only nose in,

Mouth out.

Here we go.

Extra deep.

Fully out.

In and hold.

Hold it here,

Now,

Check how you feel.

Again,

We're going to do the extended exhale test.

So we're going to breathe in.

In three,

Two,

One.

Deep in.

And breathe out as slow as you can.

Like you're breathing out through a straw.

Or when you breathe out through the nose,

Just breathe out as slow as you can.

As slow as you can.

30 seconds.

45.

45.

One minute.

One minute 15.

And one minute 30.

Now this session stops playing.

Sit still,

Feel,

Meditate as long as you want.
