Subject : Learn Proper Breathing  Techniques
                       for Vast Health Benefits
  
Breathing technique is known as "  Pranayama " in yoga practice. It has many health benefits if properly  understood and practised.

                                How Well You Breathe, has an Effect on your Health            
      'Conscious breathing heightens awareness and deepens      relaxation' - Dan Brule 
     
      Five seconds ago I wasn't      consciously aware of my breath, until I read this quote. Upon doing so, it got      me thinking that when it comes to certain body functions, we rarely give      them much thought at all: digesting food, our heart beating, breathing -      our bodies tend to manage all of these functions without us having to be      consciously aware of the need to do so. Even when such systems are not      working as efficiently as they should be, we don't take any notice, and the      act of breathing - something we do thousands of times every day - is a      great example of this.
     
      The average person generally takes a little over      17,000 breaths per day, and when done correctly, proper breathing has a      number of benefits: 
     
            It provides sufficient oxygen           to every cell in the body. In fact, without sufficient oxygen, the           cells cannot metabolize food properly and so nutrients, including           vitamins and minerals, are often wasted.
It allows the body to           rid of carbon dioxide.
The brain also requires           a rich supply of oxygen, which in turn improves concentration and           general clarity of thought.
It improves stress           management and the ability to handle complex situations more           effectively.
Mindful breathing detoxifies           and releases toxins, as well as tension.
It relaxes the mind and           body, and relieves emotional tension and pain.
Conscious breathing           elevates moods.
It also improves the           nervous system and strengthens the lungs.
Mindful breathing helps           lower blood pressure and boosts energy levels, improving stamina.
Quality of blood is           also improved as is the strengthening of the immune system and the           heart. 
           
      Still, for most of us, our breathing has become      habitually restricted in various ways, and we are not even aware of it. This,      more often than not, lies in our posture. Slouching positions diminish our      lung capacities causing our breaths to become shorter and more shallow,      with breathing only derived from the upper chest. We therefore end up by      using just a small fraction of our lung capacity. In contrast, when we are      relaxed but don't slouch, the free and easy expansion and contraction of      the lungs, diaphragm, ribcage and spine is enhanced during breathing,      thereby increasing the volume of air that we inhale or exhale. 
     
      So, to help you reap in the benefits of conscious      breathing, we recommend you try these top three breathing exercises,      starting with the 'Deep, Full Breath', before progressing on to the other      two when you feel comfortable enough to do so.
     
      Deep, Full Breath
     
      When breathing deeply and fully, inhalation      happens in three stages. 
     
      Here's How:
     
            Sit down comfortably or           lie down on the floor. Place your hands on your stomach to feel your           breath expand. You may also place one hand on your belly and the other           on your chest, doing so will allow you to feel your breath rise and           fall.
      Breathe in, through the           nose, slowly, inhaling as much as possible. Fill the diaphragm area.           Keep breathing in slowly, filling the chest.
      Finally raise the           clavicles to allow the as much air to enter as possible. This will           ensure that the body gets an increased amount of oxygen, which it will           use to burn up nutrients delivered to the body tissues. The brain will           also benefit from the added oxygen and a general feeling of relaxation           and well-being will be achieved.
      Then, hold the breath           for a few seconds, as this will allow the lungs to use up as much of           the inhaled oxygen as possible.
      Exhale very slowly,           emptying the lungs completely. This will expel the maximum amount of           carbon dioxide. This will leave the lungs ready to take in extra           oxygen during the next breath.
      Use this type of           breathing several times a day to get used to breathing correctly, or           at the first sign of anxiety or a panic attack. 
           
      Hissing breath
     
      This relaxing breathing technique has many      benefits for the mind and body. It quietens the brain, while slowing and      soothing the flow of breath. It also has positive effects on the body too,      reducing heat in the head and alleviating diseases related to the breath      and lungs such as asthma and tuberculosis. Just be careful not to tighten      your throat. 
     
      Here's How:        
     
            Sit comfortably, with           your spine erect. Place your right hand at the base of your neck.
      Start inhaling slowly           through both nostrils, mouth closed.
      The incoming air should           be felt at the upper palate of the mouth, which is enabled by           partially closing the glottis (the opening between the vocal cords at           the upper part of the windpipe).
      When done correctly,           you will hear a hissing sound, produced at the back of the throat,           which produces a sound similar to that of a scuba diver.
      Exhale slowly, also           through the nostrils, and continue to make a hissing sound at the           throat, by once again, contracting the glottis.
      This completes one           cycle, and you can repeat it up to ten times.  
           
      Alternate Nostril      Breathing
     
      This breathing technique helps balance the left      and right hemispheres of the brain, as well as the whole body. It is the      perfect breathing exercise to counteract laziness and also aids in blood      purification. Among its many benefits, alternate nostril breathing is good      for nose blockages and sinuses.
     
      Here's How:
     
            Sit in a comfortable           cross-legged position, spine erect. Exhale completely.
      With your left hand,           connect your index and thumb together, keeping the other three fingers           extended. This finger technique is done to help keep the mind           focused. 
      With your right hand,           palm facing up, bend and draw in your index and middle finger, keeping           your thumb, ring and little finger extended.
      Close the right nostril           with the thumb of the right hand.  Inhale slowly, steadily and           deeply for as long as possible. Do not hold the breathe. Release your           thumb and simultaneously close the left nostril using your ring           finger, exhaling through the right nostril. Inhale once again through           the right. At the top of your inhalation, close the right nostril, and           repeat the process again on the left (exhaling then inhaling).
      Be sure to inhale and           exhale from each nostril for the same duration. It is therefore           recommended that you count your breaths – example: 4 seconds inhaling,           4 seconds exhaling.
      
Repeat for 5 minutes.

[www.keralites.net] BENEFITS OF COW GHEE

BENEFITS OF COW GHEE

According to Dr. Bhagyashree Zope of Santulan Ayurveda, fats are an integral aspect of our diet and traditional ghee is the best form of fat that your body can ask for. The only condition to making traditional ghee, she says, is that it must be made from fresh or pasteurised milk without resorting to shortcuts for this process (see box).
Apart from nourishing the eyes, hair and skin, the traditional ghee lubricates and cleanses the insides, including the intestines, tissues, joints and arteries. "This is because it doesn't allow anything it comes in contact with to 'stick', thereby helping the organs in functioning smoothly," explains Dr Zope. Ghee also helps regulate digestion and promotes optimum metabolism. "In cases of blocked arteries, it helps remove the plaque deposited in arteries and facilitates its dissolution. It improves the ratio of HDL (good cholesterol) to LDL (bad cholesterol) and helps control triglycerides," says Dr Zope.
The traditional ghee, which is a more suitable cooking medium compared to oil due to the fact that ghee does not burn (smoke) easily, even helps reduce obesity. "If you take a tablespoon of ghee every night, followed by a few sips of hot water, it helps regulate bowel movements and improves digestion. Over time, this helps cut down body fat," she recommends.
That apart, Dr Zope advises her patients to take a minimum of four to five teaspoons of ghee a day. "In fact, heart patients should have about eight to 10 teaspoons of ghee every day if they want to increase their HDL and to bring down the LDL and triglycerides," she says.
Her patient Dr Manu Multani, 75-year-old former professor at the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research and a pioneer in nanomaterial science and technology, concurs. "I suffered from a massive heart attack in 1996 and my condition was deteriorating. Two years later, when cardiologists were giving up, I turned to ayurveda," he says. Along with the ayurvedic medicines, the doctors advised him ghee. The physicist says, "We completely stopped using cooking oil at home and switched to traditional ghee from the ayurveda centre."
Since 1998, Dr Multani has been pouring eight to 10 teaspoons of ghee over dal, rice, chapattis and cooked veggies daily. In the past 14 years, he claims he has consumed around 230 kgs of ghee. Even when the Versova resident travels abroad for his conferences, he carries his box of ghee along. And in all these years, the doctors haven't seen his cholesterol levels shoot up, he says.
"In fact, I feel better than before. I can effortlessly climb two floors and walk for an hour without trouble. Besides, the devotion of my wife Ruby, it's this ghee that has helped me remain hale and hearty," he smiles. Referring to the significance of ghee in Indian culture, Dr Multani says, "There's a Sanskrit saying that says you must eat ghee even if you have to borrow money to buy it. There's another adage in my mother-tongue Sindhi: Jeko kare na ma pi; so kare ghee (What your parents cannot manage for you, ghee does). In fact, before my heart problem, I would never touch ghee. Today, I consider it as nectar."
There are fats that kill and then there are those that heal. The traditional ghee, which your grandmother so lovingly churned and boiled at home, is clearly the latter.
