Humming breath

Breathwork helps for wholesome recovery and helps to pass the time.
Much physical stress can be approached, little muscle by little
interior space by little moment, continually throughout the day.
I'll try to help with some breathing practice.

Just a little breath exercise called "Humming Breath".

From either sitting or laying on your back,
inhale normally.
On exhale, slowly hum until 90% of breath is exhaled. Release the last bit.
Inhale normally again and repeat slow humming exhale, letting the pitch
of the hum be either lower or higher.
Continue this "Humming Breath" for 2 to 5 minutes.
Appreciate many different vibrations traveling
throughout the chest, back and abdomen, especially if you let your hands
rest on various places over your torso. Use your hands to communicate
with your body. Let your hands also rest on the head and neck
and raise the pitch of your hum higher.
This vibrational breath stimulates the entire respiratory apparatus
and integrates cellular healing energies.

In our yoga classes this week,
our final meditation really focused on letting go. After a while, the
boundary between ourselves and our outside environment slowly
became less distinct. It seemed as if our spirit was able to relax
that grip on the physical body and grow beyond it. We meld
with the surrounding sounds and smells, experiencing the air, and
noise, and energy as something not outside of ourselves.
Very interesting.
