healing by breathing

A healer must know in the first place that breath is the very
life, that breath is the giver of life, and that breath is the
bringer of life. One can live without food for some time, but one
cannot live without breath even for a few minutes. This shows that
the sustenance that breath brings to man's life is much greater and
much more important than any nourishment upon earth. Every atom of
man's body is radiant; but if the body is the flame, the breath is
the fire, and as the flame belongs to the fire, so the body belongs
to the breath. As long as breath dwells in it, it lives, and when
breath leaves it, it is dead, for all its beauty, strength, and
complicated mechanism. That is why the effect of the breath of a holy
person can magnetize water, bread, milk, or wine, fruit or flower.

The breath that is developed spiritually will have a healing
effect upon any painful part that it fails upon. If one knows how to
direct the breath there is no better process than healing with
breath; and in all the different methods of healing breath is the
main thing, since in breath is hidden the current of life.

Very pleased you like the article, and the site ;D

I must confess that there have been times in my life when i have caught myself forgetting to breathe I have read up a bit and found all sorts of things about it. there are various meditations and exercises, aromatherapy oils and even poetry and music etc which effect our breathing....It is really amazing, the more you look at it

I'll post a really effective poem to show you what i mean, but my children are on hols at the mo ;D ;D and the poem is long... so next week...

Keep breathing......In, light and love ,

Very nice post.

I first learned to really breathe in yoga, sometimes a whole class was on the breathing. It's amazing to actually get into the breath work and realize how much more opens up.

If you think about it...if done properlly, you can't think and think breathe at the same time. This will help keep your concentration on the breath just by hearing it go in and out, this is also a meditation, very cleansing.

Hello Joanie and any one else who is interested,
This is the piece i mentioned it is taken from a book called Pure joy by Sondra Ray though i think they are lyrics from a piece by Laraji....

Try to read it aloud and notice if ,like me ,you find the words internalise and you feel tremendously peacefull inside.... the power of these words just knocks me out ;D ;D
