Читать книгу Five secrets of a healthy life - Irina Bjørnø - Страница 4

It is fun to know who you are. We have learned some basic information at school and at college about biology, sociology, psychology, but let be curious: internet is the biggest information net with all blogs, chat rooms, specialists’ panels and it is all available nowadays for about everybody. Why penis has no bone inside (it could solve a lot of problems)? Why babies can breathe under water? Can you leave only on canned food? Or what about life without food? Stimulate your intellect by asking at least 10 new question everyday! Be the child again (children are growing, old people who “know all” are dying)! One of my friends is 94 years old Danish scientist, engineer and businessman. He is still going strong because he is curious every day: he invents every day something new, he is a child inside – it is his secret!

And we will help you in your first step to know yourself: we will teach you about your pulse and respiration. Did you notice that you breathe? How many times per day do you remember to breath deep and slow? What the pattern of your breath just now: Fast or shallow? Be curious! Observe!

Rule N. 2 (Index finger): Invest every day a little time to learn the basic knowledge about body, mind and intellect! It is investment in your future (10 minuets are ok? Sounds as not too much)

Step 1: Close your eyes and just observe your breath. For 1 minute. Do not change anything. Just observe. And after 1 minute you will experience the feeling of calmness, relief, rest. It is easy. Make a new habit: observe your breath 3 times a day, and you will witnesses a lot of miracles which will start happening in your life. You will be calmer. Concentrations will come back. You can experience more vitality, joy, creativity. After 14 days of breath observation (3 minutes per day) you are ready to enter Step 2.

Step 2: Your pulse. Find your pulse on your wrist and start to observe. Is it deep, shallow, fast, chaotic? You observe your heart! How many times a day you remember that you have a heart? Only if it is bothering you! We are not aware of harmony, we are aware of dysfunction! We know if something hurts, but not aware when we are healthy. Try to listen to your heart beating 1 minute per day. Close your eyes and observe! Be in intimate relation with your own breath and heart beating. Just one short minute. The consequences will be tremendous! Observe you pulse and you breath in the next 14 days. When you are done go to Step 3. Do not rush! You have time!

Step 3: We will teach you how to harmonise your breath and the heart beating. After 14 days of observation (1 min breath and 1 min pulse observation, 3 times a day, 14 days, and if you make the break, start to count from the beginning 14 days and proceed without break) you may approach the next stage: do not be in a hurry: you have the time! Be the master of breath and pulse observation first!

Now you are ready. Find you pulse, close your eyes and start to breathe counting your pulse: you can choose 7 heart beats for inhalation and 7 hearts beats for exhalation, repeat 7 times – it is traditional way. After a while you can start to experiment with yourself: you may enjoy making the break between inhalation end exhalation (start with 3, later make it up to 7 pulses beating to keep the breath). You may keep the breath after inhalation and after exhalation, or after both processes.

Important is that you enjoy to work with yourself and learn something new about yourself every time. Results will shows as a better concentration, less tiredness, better sleep or more. You will be amazed how good works this small technique!
