In Breathing, Michael Sky offers simple breathing exercises that are intended to be experienced as they are read. He discusses breath, the central organizing life force, as it relates to emotional responses, lifetime habits, sleep, childbirth, sexual communion, and higher consciousness.

Breathing
Rating  (5)
Date: 2008-11-07
Breathing, it's involuntary. Much of the time, we aren't even aware of the process. Yet, our breathing patterns do change. When we are calm and relaxed our breathing is deeper. When we are upset or in pain, we take shallow breathes. Often, without realizing it, we take on these patterns long after the trauma is gone.
Breathing looks to do two things. First and foremost, the reader is encouraged to become aware of his or her breathing through various exercises. As this awareness increases, the reader learns how breathing can be used as a tool for self understanding and ultimately healing trauma such as that occurring during the birthing process.
Breathing is suitable for even the most novice beginner. The author does a good job of explaining how breathing affects the body in general and it various associated aspects in more detail. Of particular interest are the rebirthing and sexual energies sections.

"Rebirthing" is an artform that many aspire to and few attain. Michael's book captures both the spiritual as well as the practical aspects of many facets of the breath and breathing. He is quite poetic as well. A must buy for anyone interested in transformational breathwork and the study of the breath.
