Breath Vs Bad Cells

Have we become so removed and unaware of our body these days? I was tickled by the fact that there is actually a book, "Breathing for Dummies" - for those of us who do not breathe right! Laughed I did but I also suspect that majority of us have been breathing wrongly for a long, long time. It is a fact that babies breathe rightly, but how and when did we forget to take in air the right way? Stumped, right?!  Breathing is a critical process of not merely supplying the lungs and body with air - oxygen, to be precise - it is more than that....

My friend, KarLai, shared a booklet with my friends and I sometime ago. It was entitled Cancer Care with Chi Dynamics by Master Anthony Wee. It is basically a concise and to the point instructions and sharing on how to use breath-work to maintain good health or even fight off cancer cells, basing on the theories that:

1- the breathing exercise will balance the Yin and Yang aspects within our body, and maintain the body's right pH balance within.

As further shared in an article in Natural Healing for You (http://www.naturalhealingforyou.com/journal.php?J_Id=28&V_Name=Volume%203&SE_Name=Review%20Article), a combination of gentle movements and breathing (as practiced in Qigong), also bring about positive healing through,

2 - Improved Oxygen Supply to cells

3 - Improved balance of the Autonomic Nervous System

4 - Improved Lymphatic function

Of course, in the path to healing, especially in battling cancer cells and diseases, there are many other aspects of our lives to look into, i.e. lifestyle, diet, rest, mental health, environment and many more. A whole and natural approach  has often times been proven to be the most effective way to put ourselves back on the road to regain our optimum health.

There is nothing to lose to take some moments, stop ourselves in our hurtle head-on and take stock of ourselves from time to time. Is our lifestyle destructive? Am I eating myself to an early grave? Are we pushing our body to beyond its limits? Am I getting proper rests? Are we thinking right? Am I emotionally healthy?

Or, just simply, am I breathing right?
