Close
your eyes and relax. For those who have a chronic disease, exhale deeply
before inhaling. If you do not have a chronic disease, inhale deeply then exhale. Focus your awareness on
your breath and enjoy your breathing in a comfortable, slow pace.
As
you inhale slowly, visualize water lifting coolness from your abdominal aorta
region (3 inches below your navel) into your sternum. Repeat step 3 until you can not inhale
anymore.
Then
exhale only 20% of your exhalation containing the fire from your heart region.
As you exhale, press the fire down to the abdominal aorta with the aide of your lungs and
diaphragm.
Hold
your breath and use your visualization to keep pressing down the fire coming
from the heart for approximately
5 to 8 seconds. Visualize red light flowing down with the fire as you hold the
breath. You will gradually feel a flow of warmth in your abdominal aorta region.
Then,
exhale the remaining 80% of your exhalation sending the warmth down to your
perineum (anus) and reaching to your adrenals and two kidneys. You will gradually feel the warmth
flow to your lumbar (lower back) region.
The
best time to practice reverse breathing is one hour before bedtime or whenever
you feel tired. You may practice reverse breathing either laying face upward or seated with your palms
resting on the
thighs facing upward. When you practice in a seated position, be sure
that you are sitting on the front part (1/3) of the chair with your neck, spine, and sacrum in a straight line. Do
not lean on the chair.
The duration of practice can be from 20 minutes to 3
days. It is a very effective technique in weight loss if you practice when fasting. It can also help induce sound sleep, re-charge
energy, build up the immune system, and overcome hot flashes.
Shortly
after finishing the practice, you must shuffle your hands together for at
least 20 seconds until your palms feel warm. Then, wash the face with the energy in your palms, comb
the hair with the energy in your fingers, pat the neck, the chest, massage the umbilicus, hips, back, and
lateral and medial sides of your feet.
Do
not shower/bathe or drink water shortly after the breathing exercise. You
should wait 10 minutes because water will stop the energy you just gained.
