De-Stress and Enhance Your Fitness.
So many of us take our breathing for granted and it is only when something goes wrong with our breathing, or if we require specialist breathing training for sport or singing, that we stop to think about the way that we breathe. 'Breathe For Life' shows you how to use breathing to improve your health, fitness and quality of life, teaching you how to breathe for any situation, such as relaxation, swimming and childbirth.
All the breathing methods in the book draw on a range of disciplines from East and West, such as yoga, the martial arts and physiology. Complete with diagrams, photographs and step-by-step exercises, 'Breathe For Life' includes information by some of the most prominent medical experts in Australia as well as numerous elite athletes.
The book will help you:
- Discover different types of breathing (including Relaxation Breathing and Power Breathing) and their health benefits;
- Learn how your posture affects your breathing and how to improve it;
- Correct faulty breathing habits caused by stress;
- Learn breathing techniques for exercise, sport and flexibility.
