8 exercises for emotional control
posted by Beto Alves (Deva Munish)
One of the most important roles of a Reborn is to teach people to complete an energy cycle. This means teaching people to connect with the energy through Breathing and allowing the energy to heal them. In other words, teaching how to overcome tension, pain, drama, fear, depression, anxiety and trauma through Breathing, until they reach peace and relaxation. In this way, much of what was being contained is released and healed, which prevented the energy from flowing freely in the physical, mental and emotional bodies. The main layers of tension and stress arising from past emotional traumas, childhood memories and birth are also released. And we start to live a more satisfying life during the practice of exercises, we will feel more confident in relation to ourselves and the universe and recover our natural contact with the source of life.
I will make available a sequence of 8 very powerful Breathing exercises, to perform in this quarantine, every day for at least ten days. Observe the different sensations you experience when doing the different exercises. It is always recommended to rest and relax between exercises or before repeating the same exercise, in order to integrate the sensations. It takes a little practice and persistence to get all the benefits. Affectionately.
Exercise 1: 20 Connected breaths.
This is a very beneficial exercise for both beginners and those who regularly practice Renaissance sessions. Breathing must be done through the nose, except when it is congested.
To perform this exercise, we take four short breaths and one long breath (as deep as possible) and repeat this four times. Breaths must be connected, which means that when we finish exhaling, we must begin to breathe in immediately. At a certain moment, it seems that the inhalation and exhalation fuse. Inspiration, which is a mirror of our yearning for life, participation and openness to life itself, must be done with enthusiasm, but it must not be forced. Exhalation, mirror of our surrender to life, of acceptance and trust, must be totally relaxed and effortless. It is best to drop it, like a leaf that falls from a tree or a balloon that deflates. And the pace should not be slow or too fast, but active and smooth.
Exercise 2: Of the 6 breaths alternated through the nose.
To perform this exercise, we close the right nostril with the thumb (the index and middle fingers are bent). We inhale and then close the left nostril with the last two fingers (ring finger and little finger). We breathe out through the right nostril. Then we inhale through the same nostril (right) and exhale on the left. We inspired again from the left, and so on ...
In total, we do 6 Breaths. This exercise activates and purifies the nadis (energy channels) of each nasal orifice, allowing energy to flow better through our body. Yogis recommend that it be done one to three times a day (no more than three!). When practiced over a year, it provides great benefits.
Exercise 3: 20 Breaths connected with the tongue between the teeth.
For this exercise, keep your mouth closed and place your tongue between your teeth. above, behind the upper lip, or below, behind the lower lip. Then do the twenty connected breaths exercise (exercise 1) through your nose.
This is a very effective exercise for overcoming anger. You can practice it when you are angry and you will be able to handle that emotion more easily. It is also very beneficial for people who grind their teeth while sleeping (bruxism), because, in fact, this is due to suppressed anger. In these cases, exercise should be practiced before bed.
Exercise 4: 20 Breaths connected through the mouth, with the mouth open.
Do the 20 connected Breaths exercise, but this time, breathing with your mouth wide open. Keep your mouth as open as you can, but in a way that is very comfortable. The tongue should be relaxed.
With this exercise, repressed feelings and blocked energy come to the surface and are released. If you notice unpleasant sensations, bring your breath back through your nose to be able to release them more effectively.
Exercise 5: 20 Breaths connected through the nose, but with the mouth wide open.
Perform the 20 Breaths connected through your nose, but with your mouth wide open. Also in this exercise, keep your mouth as open as possible, but in a way that is comfortable and your tongue is relaxed. This is the most efficient breathing to remove negative energy from the body.
Exercise 6: Silent breathing of energy.
Do the 20 Breaths exercise connected through the nose, but breathing in such a smooth way that there is no noise both in and out of the air. The purpose of this exercise is to develop your awareness of energy. It leads you to realize that it is easier to connect with energy if your breathing is smooth and if you concentrate. It is also a very good exercise for people who have trouble breathing through their nose. It helps to unblock the nasal canals, as well as to overcome sinusitis and colds. End this exercise with three large, noisy breaths.
Exercise 7: 9 short breaths and a long one.
Make the 20 Breaths connected, but this time with a different rhythm: 9 short breaths and one long breath, twice.
Exercise 8: Intuitive breathing.
To develop mastery over your breathing, it is important to give up bad breathing habits. When you can do this, breathing becomes natural and you can intuitively identify how you have to breathe to have the energy flowing in your body.
In this exercise, do the 20 connected Breaths, alternating long and short breaths, however you want. Choose what is most pleasurable at this time. These exercises are more powerful than they look. Some people achieve incredible releases immediately.
