| BENEFIT 1
INCREASED ENERGY LEVELS
We possess vast "underground" sources of energy--in our
breath and in our musculature and glands--ready to be tapped and
used. Breathwalk connects us with these underutilized energy sources.
Our minds and our bodies both hold energy in the form of tension
and attention. Release tension and direct attention, and we summon
up vast new energy sources.
We experience our personal energy in three common qualities: Quick
Start Energy, Core Energy, and Gathered Energy. Breathwalk exercises
help build up all three to give you vitality.
Invincible vitality is more than energy; it comes from the alignment
of all forms of our energy using body, mind and spirit.
BENEFIT 2
MOOD CONTROL
Mood states can be switched from negative to positive through the
right physical actions combined with breath and attention.
Not learning to change your mood to support what you want to do
bears a high cost economically, physically and socially.
The four most common upset mood states and their shifts to healthy
opposites are: simple anxiety shifted to inner calm; depressed shifted
to clear and connected; distracted, busy and hyperactive shifted
to receptive and intimate, and doubtful and lethargic shifted to
motivated and ready.
We can increase our choices about moods if we use body and mind
together with the power of the breath.

BENEFIT 3
REFINED MENTAL QUALITY
Four qualities of the mind come with real mental vitality: mental
clarity, intuition, focus and directed attention, and learning and
creativity.
The mind can become either our most faithful servant or our worst
master. Conquer your own mind, and you conquer the world.
BENEFIT 4
FEELINGS OF CONNECTEDNESS
Connectedness is a primary protector against illness, and emotional
imbalances. Its impact is often underestimated.
The state of connectedness has four areas we need to manage for
real vitality: rapport, consistency, integrity, and emotional presence.
Use Breathwalk to bring each of these four areas to the positive
side of their polarities and your relationships will glow with health
and good communication.
Connectedness is when we can be part of something greater than
our normal selves. Rapport and integrity with our selves is the
beginning of all forms of connectedness. |
