The Stability of the Mind begins with the Breathe

The blood circulation in humans is fueled by the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the respiratory system. The whole body depends on this mechanism just the same way the existence of plants depend on the exchange in a reverse mode to humans'.

For humans to maintain concentration, there must be a correlation in the exchange that occurs during respiration. If the inhale is longer than the exhale, fatigue may set into the brain making the mind lose focus or attention. If the exhale is longer than the inhale, distractions can be bridled and the stability of the mind is one step away. When the length of inhale is proportional to the length of exhale, the mind is said to be in a state of bliss. In this state, the mind is fully anchored on the object of concentration. The distractions encountered in this state are such that would first alter the tempo and duration of the breathe before concentration is partially or totally lost.

In Personal Massage Therapy, the control of breathe is the primary focus to the attainment of a healthy mind and body. If the mind is unsettled, proportional flows of breathe within a dedicated amount of time would be extremely beneficial to the mind. The brain needs as much oxygen as every other parts of the body and a steady supply of it with concentration is a way of teaching the brain to maintain a steady and even flow of breathe even when one is not paying attention to the breathing.

The golden tip for today is the fact that one can reduce anxiety, nervousness and impulsive actions with the practice of mindfulness. Mindfulness sessions require experienced and dedicated instructors to get the most benefits of the breathing exercises.
