breath is seen as the vehicle for Prana the life force energy through conscious breathing techniques we can activate and stimulate this energy unlocking its powerful potential however most of us aren't breathing properly usually we only use up to half of our lung capacity during rest and most daily activities even during intense exercise we only reach about 60 to 70% of our lung potential leaving much of it untapped this shallow breathing affects more than just our health it impacts our mental state ages us faster and keeps our Consciousness at a lower level breathing consciously is one
of the simplest yet most profound ways to elevate our state of mind and expand our Consciousness when you breathe in a specific way you can truly feel reality shifting around you in this video I will show you how to turn your breath into an incredibly powerful tool tool for transforming your mental physical and spiritual State breathing may seem basic but when done correctly and with intention it becomes a direct path to a higher state of being it's a simple practice to learn yet highly effective for raising your Consciousness we will explore the deeper symbolism of
breath how it connects us to Life Force energy and how mastering it can unlock higher levels of awareness let let's begin air is far more than just a medium for oxygen it carries an unseen energy an electromagnetic force that sustains all life when we breathe we are not just taking in air we are absorbing this life force energy often referred to as Prana Chi or ether in the next few minutes we will explore how this works and why it is important we all have an energy field surrounding us known as the pranic field with a
measurable electromagnetic layer close to the skin oxygen carried in the air we breathe holds electromagnetic energy that interacts with our body and the Earth's natural energy Fields with every breath we absorb this energy nourishing not just our physical body but also our Consciousness by becoming aware of this subtle energy we can guide its flow through focused awareness deepening our meditative and mindful State breath work or pranayama is a key part of yoga and is used to balance the flow of energy through the natis subtle energy channels in the body according to ancient yogis there are
72,000 nais in the body with 36,000 on each side these channels function like invisible rivers of energy but for most they remain blocked disconnecting them from their full potential through pranayama specific breathing techniques these channels can be cleared allowing the dormant energy at the base of the spine Kundalini to rise among them three are especially important pingala which flows through the right nostril AA which flows through the left nostril and sushumna the channel to higher Consciousness it is a state where both nostrils flow freely without obstruction facilitating deep meditation when sushumna is open the mind
is free from distractions thoughts and unconscious patterns allowing us to connect to higher Realms these three primary naties begin at the base of the spine and travel upwards the points where AA pingala and sushumna intersect along the spine are known as as chakras energy centers that act as wheels of power and transformation the physical body is built around this subtle network of natis and it is sustained by the flow of Life Energy through them however in most people only a small fraction of Prana flows dynamically while the majority remains dormant hidden in a potential or
seed State this dormant energy is called Kundalini symbolized as a sleeping serpent coiled in the root chakra at the base of the spine typically Prana flows through AA and pingala but not through the central sushumna which remains blocked at the base of the spine for most people pranayama techniques aim to open sushumna so that Prana can flow through it this Awakening activates Kundalini the dormant spiritual energy at the base of the spine guiding it up through the chakras to the crown Indian Mystics have referred to the the seventh chakra as Paradise heaven or what Christ
described as the kingdom of God within this is the moment of Spiritual Awakening the union of cosmic energy and Cosmic Consciousness Shakti and Shiva it is the merging of our soul with the Divine transcending the limits of the physical world this sacred Union this Divine Fusion is the ultimate Freedom where we transcend all suffering and experience Liberation as the Kundalini flows through each chakra these centers are activated to emit a pure nourishing energy the ancient vadas liken this energy to a sacred River emanating from each chakra cascading like Divine water and purifying the soul this
is the Journey of self-realization the same path described in various Traditions as The Awakening of Christ Consciousness the pure Divine Light of consciousness this process is nothing less than the most sacred and transformative experience we can imagine a return to the divine within the Journey Back To The Source where all things are one the breath serves as bridge between the material and spiritual worlds a tool to access a state where the Mind Falls silent time dissolves and universal truth is revealed through conscious breathing we bring movement to the energy which flows through the nautis this
movement clears blockages and opens the energetic channels allowing for the free flow of energy this is why constant and regular practice is so important during this process you may experience discomfort such as emotional release tension or even physical Sensations like tightness or pain these are moments when the energy encounters blockages whether they are emotional mental or physical but it is a normal part of the process these moments of resistance are often signs of transformation as the energy works to clear and balance the system this connection to breath is not a new idea ancient texts and
teachings from diverse Traditions such as the Bible taism Hinduism Buddhism Shamanism and Greek philosophy have long emphasized the power of breath as a means of connecting with the Divine and achieving physical mental and spiritual Harmony in the Bible breath is often equated with spirit and life itself for example job 27:3 says as long as my breath is in me the spirit of God is in my nostrils here breath is viewed not just as a physical act but as a profound spiritual experience aligning one with Divine energy in Hinduism breath is seen as deeply connected to
the spirit Sutra 2.51 of Maharishi patanjali's yoga sutras states that the fluctuations of the Mind are intimately connected to the breath and by regulating the flow of inhalation and exhalation we can achieve Mastery over the mind in Sanskrit Prana translates to life force and Yama means control ancient yogis believed that controlling the breath influences the flow of this vital energy throughout the body directly affecting one's well-being and Consciousness primordial breath seven treaties translated from the taist Canon the Ta song is a book that focuses on breathing how it can heal or harm us depending on
how we use it and how to prolong life through breath control this this text is part of the Chinese to Canon and dates back to around 400 BC in ancient China deep breathing was a fundamental aspect of daoist practices with exercises like Dao Yin focusing on the regulation of breath to harmonize and enhance the flow of chi in taism the Chinese word chi refers to Life Energy and breath and Chi are inseparable Buddhism with its Rich tradition of meditation used breathing not only to extend life but also to reach higher Plains of Consciousness breath for

prioritized physical treatments over the energetic and spiritual dimensions of breathing in today's world stress anxiety and a general lack of awareness lead us to breathe shallowly activating the fight ORF flight response and disrupting our natural deep breathing patterns breathing has become an unconscious process and we are rarely taught its immense potential as a tool to reconnect with our true Essence breath work is a sacred practice that goes beyond physical respiration enabling profound spiritual transformation through the Mastery of breath one can achieve somadi a state of pure Transcendent Consciousness where one merges with the infinite while
breathing is as old as life itself it has undergone a significant revolution in the past 60 years many of the breath work therapies used today originated during the Consciousness raising movements of the 1960s and 1970s and they continue to evolve as powerful tools for accessing buried traumas releasing emotions and raising Consciousness the practice of Fuller diaphragmatic breathing engages the lower lungs and ensures full oxygenation allowing us to reconnect with ourselves our spirit and the wisdom of ancient cultures just as our ancestors did with this understanding in mind let's now move into the practice this practice
is more than just a breathing exercise it is a powerful method designed to open energy Pathways guide you into a profound state of inner Stillness and connect you with the infinite by practicing it consistently for 20 to 30 minutes you can experience noticeable shifts in your perception of reality before we dive into the step-by-step process let's explore some essential components for Effective breathing one slowing the breath naturally the breath should slow down naturally without Force after a few minutes of practice it will gradually become slower and more deliberate avoid forcefully manipulating the breath as this
can create tension instead let the transformation arise organically through consistent practice allowing the body and mind to align with your natural Rhythm energy flow and the inherent patterns within your body two nasal breathing over mouth breathing proper breathing begins with the nose not the mouth the nose filters and purifies the air before it enters the lungs while the mouth lacks this ability breathing through the nose ensures cleaner more regulated air flow and aligns with the body's Natural Energy Pathways inhaling through the nose draws the electromagnetic energy downward along the spinal column while exhaling guides it
upward this continuous flow of energy exists within everyone and everything and is more more than just a physical sensation it is the very pulse of life itself when practiced consciously it supports balance vitality and heightened awareness for optimal results keep your tongue gently resting on the roof of your mouth and focus on consistently breathing through your nose this naturally encourages deeper more effective breaths three diaphragmatic breathing if itive breathing involves engaging the diaphragm rather than relying on shallow chest movements when the diaphragm is activated your stomach naturally expands and contracts with each breath allowing you
to take deeper Fuller breaths this helps to create a stronger connection between body and mind known as diaphragmatic or belly breathing this technique significantly improves oxygen flow throughout the body helping to calm nerves and reduce stress and anxiety as you breathe focus on filling your belly not just your chest when you inhale allow your belly to expand outward guiding the breath and energy down the spine as you exhale gently pull your belly inward raising the energy back up the spine toward the brain while some of the energy exits through the mouth much of it circulates
within nourishing your body and brain activating dominant brain cells in the brain four spinal alignment posture plays a crucial role in breath control ancient yogis considered the spine to be an antenna for divine energy and maintaining an upright spine facilitates the optimal flow of this energy a straight posture enhances energy flow and also improves breathing efficiency simple techniques such as raising the arms overhead or gently resetting your posture can help align the spine and open the breath by incorporating these principles and practicing pranayama regularly breath work can become a powerful gateway to expanding your Consciousness
and achieving inner Mastery start by sitting comfortably with your back straight you can either sit on a chair with your feet planted firmly on the ground or on the floor with your legs crossed Point your tongue to the roof of your mouth and breathe fully in through your nose and out through your mouth straighten your neck in line with your spine and relax your shoulders away from your ears relax the stomach and take a deep breath through the nose as you inhale you will notice your belly expanding breathe out slowly through the mouth feel your
belly descend when you exhale if you are unsure whether it is moving this way place your hand on it to check for a few minutes breathe in deeply through your nose as fully as you can until your lungs and belly feel completely filled focus on directing the breath into your belly not just your chest then exhale fully through your mouth do this for just a few minutes and notice the shift imagine the breath traveling down your spine as you inhale and Rising back up as you exhale this movement flows energy through through your body activates
