and across your
shouders…
Loose – limp – and Relaxed.

mind as you see them
come up on the screen and

6. Any tension in your
shoulders or your back
letting go and relaxing into
the comfort of where you are
right now…

Your chest relaxing…

8. Following these easy gentle
breathing instructions for
your inner health and
wellbeing

9. Take a gentle DEEP
breath through your
mouth

10. Feel as though you are
gently sucking the air from
the lower part of your
stomach

11. continue sucking the air out
of your upper chest
when there is no air left to
suck out – hold it to the
count of 6

12. when there is no air left to
suck in… hold it to the
count of 6
1 2 3 4 5 6

13. Now blow the air out as
though you are blowing up a
balloon squeezing the area
just below your ribs
(diaphragm) as tight as you
can - until all the air has been
blown out into the balloon

14. That is all you need to do, rhythmically,
breathing gently in filling up your lower
stomach, then into your chest, and then
blowing the air out, filling up that
balloon, squeezing you diaphragm (just
below the ribs) tight as you can, till all
the air is gone…

15. Simple don’t you think?
Do that 6 times then rest for about a
minute or two.
Then do that another 6 times.

16. If you feel as though you
are getting light headed,
then cut back on the
number of times you are
doing it - easy does it…

17. same as you might feel light headed
if you were blowing up too many
party balloons – as you do it more
often, you will increase the number
of times when it seems right

18. Be consistent - do this every
day, a number of times
during the day – even if it is
only 3 to 4 times
The more times you
remember to breathe like this
the bigger benefit you get

19. WIFM?
(what’s in it for me)

20. For thousands of years, humans
have understood breathing has a
powerful influence over our
physiological and psychological
wellbeing. But many people still
find it difficult to understand the
link between breathing and its
impact on our body's physical and
emotional body.

21. With every breath we take
in oxygen, and exhale carbon
dioxide. When we breath
diaphragmatically we are able to
access the lower parts of the
lungs, which are 7 times more
productive in gas exchange than
the upper parts of the lungs.

22. When breathing with your
diaphragm you eliminate wastes
from the body. Further, the
lymphatic system helps remove
wastes from the body but needs help
from our muscles to do this.
Contraction of the diaphragm
through proper breathing, stimulates
the lymph nodes and facilitates
lymphatic drainage.

23. Breathing diaphragmatically
helps shift the balance from a
state of fight or flight response
to one of rest and digest.
This helps shift us from a state
of stress to one of feeling calm.

24. Pathogens or organisms that cause disease,
when using diaphragmatic breathing and
increasing the oxygen this helps to kill them
off.
diaphragmatic breathing gets rid of flu and
coughs fast…
Eases joint pain…
Fills you with energy…
Benefits your kidneys, liver, heart and all
systems of the body.

25. Everything takes a little while to feel
normal. So do yourself a favour and
bring this breathing exercise for your
inner health to become a normal part
of your daily routine.
Your body will love you for it and
become healthier in the process.
Do your friends a favour and get them
involved too.

26. Lets go over it again…
Review these instructions
again and then do your inner
health breathing for 4 to 6
times at the end of this repeat.

27. Take a gentle DEEP breath
through your mouth…
Feel as though you are
gently sucking the air from
the lower part of your
stomach

28. continue sucking the air out of
your upper chest
when there is no air left to suck
out – hold it for a count of 6
Now blow the air into your
balloon squeezing the
diaphragm as tight as you can,
until there is no air left…

29. Do that over about 6 times then rest
Then do that another 6 times,
but don’t get light headed
Remember that if you get light
headed, you have done it too many
times – same as you might feel if
you were blowing up too many
party balloons.

30. Do this breathing a number of times during
the day – even if it is only
3 to 4 times.
Repetition… repetition… repetition…
Short term memory… long term memory…
habit!
happy… healthy… in control.
