Optimal Breathing with Michael White (website)

Are you an optimal breather? Proper breathing is both a skill and a natural body function. Did you know that with each breath, your entire spine gathers and lengthens? Likewise with each inhale your torso widens and with each exhale it narrows. Allowing a constant, subtle internal motion of the entire body. That is in addition to getting oxygen to all your tissues of course. Poor breathing patterns can seriously affect your physical health as well as your mental and emotional well being.

With a high percentage of raw foods the respiratory system is responsible for eliminating approximately 70% of your metabolic waste. The remainder should be eliminated thru defecation 3%, urination 8%, and perspiration 19%. So, if you think that going to the bathroom everyday is important, or that working up a good sweat now and then is healthy, think again about the value of full free optimal breathing!

These is just the beginning of what Michael Grant can teach you. If you having breathing issues or just want to learn how to breath properly, you should visit Michael's website. He has helped thousands of people, with many different issues.

Natural Breathing (Audio CD) by Dennis Lewis

On Natural Breathing, Lewis shows you how to find "the world in your body" - through a new awareness that begins with your next breath. This extraordinary journey of discovery begins with your own diaphragm (the "spiritual muscle") and guides you through transformative "self-sensing" exercises that bring you face to face with the miraculous energies of life itself. Dennis Lewis began his search for the breath of life when doctors couldn't cure his chronic stress and pain. In his struggle to heal himself, Lewis acquired a deep, first-hand knowledge of breathing, its mechanics, and its impact on our lives. Natural Breathing distills the essence of this lifework, leading you step by step through your own authentic breath. Richly interlaced with meditations and exercises, this one-of-a-kind presentation will leave you breathing - and living - more fully than you ever thought possible. Previously released as Breathing as a Metaphor for Living.
