Synopsis: Take a life-affirming journey with Taoist and breathwork teacher Dennis Lewis into the physiological, psychological, and spiritual experience of breathing
A long-time student of Advaita Vedanta, Taoism, and the Gurdjieff Work, Daniel Lewis presents a comprehensive approach to understanding the mechanics of the breath, as well as the relationship of breath, emotions, and energy. Along with breathing practices designed to open the three primal energy centers, the book defines natural breathing; provides a clear, illustrated description of the physiology of breathing; and offers suggestions on how to use spacious breathing both in times of stress and in everyday life. These practices will improve your health, increase your energy, and support your quest for inner growth.
". . . exquisite description of the simple act of breathing . . . this is a book to make you (and all your organs) smile." —San Francisco Chronicle
