Read how others have been helped by the Breath Gym exercises offered here:"I am 50 years of age and have subscribed to your Chi Belt breathing program from Advanced Breath Gym. I am finding that using the methods taught I am becoming more emotionally calm and centered. I would recommend this program to anyone as an excellent way to begin a new path to physical and emotional health. I have recommended some of your practises to my stressed clients. I work as a Hypnotherapist and holistic counsellor."--Ross Adams "Breathgym has been a Godsend. Some of the practices have helped me remain sane while caring for my three young children and expanding my part-time home business. I've taught some of the exercises to my husband, too, and they've helped him relax more both at work and at home."--Betty "Thanks for Breath Gym. I haven't tried them all yet, but so far the exercises are great, particularly the "revitalizing your lungs" one. After doing the exercise only a few times I could feel that my inhalation and exhalation both seemed much freer and more natural. I've also been able to utilize the "Stress Buster" exercise a lot at work, where I experience a lot of stressful stuff. Really helps."--Ned "Dennis, bless your heart for the wonderful work you are doing and thank you for the wonderful breathing exercises."--Joe "Thank you very much for the breathing exercise. I will practice it daily. Just want to let you know that I have spent the better part of a day at your website and plan to go back frequently. There is a wealth of information there, and I will encourage all my friends to visit as well. Have a blessed day."-- Pat "Thank you for the breathing exercise. I tried it and do it in the morning before I start my day and it is wonderful!!! Thanks again."--Kathy "I
found the belly exercise very useful. It opened my eyes. Previously I used to
force my stomach out when I inhaled, so I never really felt relaxed. When I
tried your exercise I slowly felt a release of tension from my stomach muscles,
so I could expand more on the in breath without any force. With time I
will be able to do this without trying. "Thanks
for the information on how to deal with anger. I have intuitively known
that I needed to process anger and that it was mine, but I didn't know how to do
this. I used to avoid the feeling. Before I read your 'tip', I was starting to
breathe deeply because it felt good, but I was wondering if I was supposed to
get myself to express it to the other person, because of all the self-help books
I read. It just didn't feel right to do so. Upon reflection, I realized that my
anger is usually about needing to make better judgments or say no, and I feel
more powerful when I stand up for myself in a calm, centered way. I "Thank you for a helpful year with your breathing exercises. Life has become more enjoyable. I have become more relaxed--not so much on the edge..."--Michael "Fortunately, I do not get angry easily, but when I do, the last thing on my mind is this exercise. However, I have been able to perform it while in a mildly agitated state and found that it deepens my level of relaxation quite considerably. It has a similar effect as certain yogic breathing techniques that I practice, which also place emphasis on the out breath. A valuable tool in situations where yogic breathing is not practical or possible. I look forward to reading more of your techniques."--Raj
A Word of CautionThe exercises and practices in Breath Gym are not intended to replace the services of your physician, or to provide an alternative to professional medical treatment. Breath Gym offers no diagnosis of or treatment for any specific medical problem that you may have. Where it suggests the possible usefulness of certain practices in relation to certain illnesses or symptoms, it does so solely for educational purposes—either to explore the possible relationship of natural breathing to health, or to expose the reader to alternative health and healing approaches. The breathing practices outlined here are extremely gentle, and should—if carried out as described—be beneficial to your overall physical and psychological health. If you have any serious medical or psychological problem, however—such as heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, mental illness, or recent abdominal or chest surgery—you should consult your physician.

Nutrition & Supplements for Better BreathingIn his book, The Age Free Zone, Dr. Barry Sears points out that too much insulin in your system--resulting from eating too many calories or the wrong ratio or kinds of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats--can reduce your aerobic capacity. It does this is three basic ways. First it produces too many bronchoconstrictors, which narrow our airways. Second, it constricts the capillaries around our lung tissue, which reduces oxygen flow to the cells. And third, it reduces the flexibility of our red blood cells, thus making it more difficult for them to carry oxygen to where it is needed. If you are truly interested in improving your aerobic capacity, therefore, you will need to look at what and how much you eat and begin making any necessary adjustments. Sears spells out one possible approach to this is his many books. In his book, The Omega RX Zone, Dr. Sears discusses how high-dose, ultra-refined fish oil may be able to help with COPD, including asthma, bronchitis, and emphysema, as well as numerous other health problems. Anyone with these problems may well benefit from reading his book and starting on a high-dose fish oil program. Sears maintains that the fish oils you find in the health food stores are not potent or pure enough (they contain too many saturated fats and other substances) to be used in the high doses required for such problems, and has therefore developed his own brand using technology only recently available. Each gram of this fish oil contains 600 mg of long-chain fatty acids (twice the amount that you will find in health-food-grade fish oil capsules). You can check out the Internet to see what brands of high-dose, ultra-refined fish oil exist (to be "ultra-refined," each gram of fish oil should contain at least 600 mg of EPA and DHA), and the fish oil should be of the highest purity with all test results available to you. Or you can learn more about or purchase the Sears Labs Omega RX formula (ultra-refined fish oil) at 1-800-404-8171, or by visiting them on the web.
