* Yoga and breathing
Most of us have forgotten how to breathe properly
We take shallow breaths through the mouth, barely use our diaphragm rarely, if at all, utilising only a fraction of our lung capacity.
The result: our bodies don't get enough oxygen, we feel fatigued, sluggish, even depressed.
* Proper breathing
Proper breathing (pranayama) supplies the body with sufficient oxygen and connects it to its ‘battery’, the solar plexus. An enormous amount of energy is stored there. By becoming aware of our breathing and taking deep breaths, we can tap into these energy stores in our daily lives. The body becomes stronger and can deal much easier with the demands of modern life. Thus stress and many illnesses such as depression can be overcome.
