The ancient sages recognized that an individual could not live for extremely long without breathing and there was a direct connection in between breathing and living. Wave breathing is a type of pranayama that I have actually found out to utilize over the years that is really reliable in lowering my blood pressure, heart rate, and breathing rate. To do wave breathing, breathe in through the nose focusing on the diaphragm, pulling air into the bottom of the lungs. Breathing is done slowly and deliberately with emphasis on wave movement from bottom to top both on inhalation and exhalation. I traveled through the presents extremely gradually and hold the postures longer than typical while wave breathing.
