Ujjayi Pranayama or Ocean Breathing is a very important deep breathing technique to master because it is so often used in conjunction with other breaths like the Yogi Complete Breath or Reverse Circular Breathing.

The heat created helps release toxins and builds internal fire, enhances the digestive and nervous systems, elicits the relaxation response, and eliminates phlegm in the throat. The “ocean” sound comes from the glottis rapidly flapping against the vocal cords and acts as a regulator so you…
The Yogi Complete Breath or 3-Part Circular Breathing is one of the best Pranayamas to include into your daily routine as it trains the lungs to completely expand, completely contract, and utilizes the entire respiratory system properly and effectively. It improves concentration, alertness and sleep, digestion, absorption and elimination, reduces anxiety, stress, and anger, builds stamina, expands lung capacity, and fully oxygenates the bloodstream. Begin by exhaling every bit of air from your body then inhale through your nose completely filling up your lungs in 3 steps. 1) Fill up your lower lungs by inhaling slowly and deeply pushing your…

The following is a political/anarchy question and answer session in Thai language with English subtitles. Please excuse my regrettable spoken Thai skills as this is from many years ago before I was fluent. http://www.EricDubay.com http://www.AtlanteanConspiracy.com http://www.IFERS.123.st source
In this clip I show a deep breathing technique and how it has moved my physical heartbeat to the center of my torso under my sternum. From 0:40-1:07 the noise that sounds like a distant engine or a cat purring is actually me inhaling using a pranayama / qigong deep breathing technique. From 1:07-1:37 you can see my heartbeat at my solar plexus but nowhere else in the upper left quadrant of the chest showing how daily deep breathing practice will bring about both literal and figurative heart centeredness! http://www.EricDubay.com http://www.AtlanteanConspiracy.com http://www.IFERS.123.st source
The following is a variation of Nauli Kriya used to help digest food in the stomach by internally exercising (pushing and pulling) the diaphragm assisting with better digestion, assimilation, and elimination. Better still it makes a great gross party trick for freaking out your friends. http://www.EricDubay.com http://www.AtlanteanConspiracy.com http://www.IFERS.123.st source
The Ministry of Health Park in Ngam Wong Wan, Bangkok, Thailand is a beautiful, quiet place nearly unknown to locals and foreigners alike. Take a walk with me around the park and temple grounds. http://www.EricDubay.com http://www.AtlanteanConspiracy.com http://www.IFERS.123.st source
