Conscious breathing

This book is an indispensable guide to the use of breathing techniques to improve emotional and physical well-being. Gay Hendricks - the pioneer of modern respiratory therapy, author of numerous books, doctor of medicine and Professor at the University of Colorado - allocated from the centuries-old tradition the most important breathing practices and developed on the basis of their simple but effective program that gives a powerful boost of energy, clarity of mind and physical health.
The book's eight key breathing exercises, richly illustrated and provided with step by step instructions. These included a brief 10-minute complex daily breathing exercises. Individual chapters are devoted to breathing techniques used for special purposes: for getting rid of the effects of trauma and drug; in the treatment of asthma and other respiratory disorders; to harmonize sexual relationships in couples; to improve concentration and endurance during sports activities.
