A breathing body: One Breath at a Time: Transforming Your World and Your Life

Breath travels in a wavelike pattern. We live in a natural state of harmony when our breath travels freely inside our bodies, making choices that improve our well-being and produce energy.Each breath moves through us in a different manner based on its flow, texture, pace, and patterns. Waves of breath pass through the body's airways in a spiraling pattern, similar to a leaf falling from a tree and spiraling to the earth. This is how air flows, how breath moves, and how seas, rivers, and lakes move. When we narrow our channels and make concessions.

Most of us are born with the capacity to breathe freely and spontaneously; nevertheless, as we age, our breathing becomes laborious, hampered by anxiety, disappointment, trauma, and pollution. As a result, we contract our breathing body and adopt behaviors that seem protective of our fragile selves but also restrict oxygen intake and consequently sustenance to our bodies.

Katherine R. Mireles shares the insights and practices she has discovered during her more than 30 years of professional experience in conscious breathing and movement, as well as for many people born with breathing difficulties and suffering from asthma as children, in The Breathable Body: Transforming Your World and Your Life, One Breath at a Time.

By altering how you breathe, you may affect your life, including symptoms of asthma, snoring, sleep apnea, insomnia, anxiety, panic attacks, digestive troubles, and exhaustion. This book's ideas will show you how to maintain and safeguard your body's respiratory system. We acquire habits that promote healthy and natural breathing via mindful breathing, movement, music, and a clear knowledge of anatomy and respiration.
