By Paul Hamilton


There are many people who are stressed and anxious every day and want to find ways in lessening these feelings from being experienced. Several ways are possible in achieving this and one of them is by practicing pranayama which is a yogic discipline that originates from India. These are sets of breathing techniques used to help produce certain results.

If you desire to know these exercises in helping you reduce your anxiousness and stress then look for one which suits you. The rhythmic breathing is a technique that is advisable for beginners as it helps on establishing a pranayama practice basis for people who have shallow breaths. Individuals of any age and health condition could practice it if they can breathe without difficulty.

Breathing rhythmically involves how you breathe basically and the simultaneous retention, outflow and inflow of breaths in a rhythmic pattern. When following the relaxed rhythm, the rate slows down and the internal organs have a reduced wear and tear since the body relaxes. Holding your breath must not be done though if suffering from heart diseases like blood pressure.

Anybody may do the exercise whatever the age they have, even those having weaker bodies are able to daily do them for twenty minutes or more. The advisable duration though is ten until twenty minutes. Practicing it is also fine during spare time at your work or when you are traveling. Regularly do this for three months and start noticing changes happening.

Whenever possible during your free time, practice this exercise though make sure you have eaten your previous meal three hours before. Your breath would be deeper with its rate coming down subconsciously without a realization from you. If you ever think you have the capability of deeply breathing more then increase the cycle timings you do.

The nervous system is soothed by it and well being as well as relaxation is promoted by releasing the tension. Your body receives more energy because of getting more oxygen with it and starting meditation practices is possible with this solid foundation.

They will be sharing their experiences to you regarding the class and if they were taught properly on how to do this effectively.
