The unified breathing method is based on keeping calm and natural, and there are clear requirements for the "three degrees" of breathing speed, strength and depth. They all give a standard for a method of controlling breathing. That is to say, the ancients called "guide tuna" with special requirements.

What are the speed, strength, and depth of breathing? To put it simply, "speed" is how fast you breathe, such as how many breaths a minute; "force" is how much force you use during breathing, and how hard you use it during breathing? For example, when inhaling, the force should be even and gentle; "Depth" means where the inhalation movement reaches during inhalation, such as inhalation to the abdomen. Obviously, these "three degrees" (short for breathing speed, strength, and depth) are actually indispensable important contents or important conditions when we breathe.

Since ancient times, there have been sayings and methods of regulating interest rates in our country. However, we have not seen a breathing method so clearly that organically combines the three speeds, strengths and depths of human breathing. method. From this point, the unified breathing method is an innovation, and it is a breathing method or breathing method that adopts and absorbs modern scientific thoughts, scientific methods, and scientific knowledge.

Beginners practice in a quiet environment with fresh air. Lie on your back, relax your body, eliminate distractions, close your ears, calm down as much as possible, and adjust your breathing naturally. Then, start to gradually adjust the speed, intensity and depth of breathing.

Why is it better for beginners to practice in a quiet environment with fresh air? Because, when you are practicing, you are afraid of sound, especially the sudden sound, which will cause people to be frightened and affect the practice effect. The air is fresh to get enough oxygen. In addition, there is a material, energy or information exchange between the open system and the environment. The steady state of the open system is a dynamic equilibrium. The open system has certain automatic adjustment capabilities, but there are certain limits to maintaining the stability of the system. In a sense, the breathing activity of the lungs is an open system, so we need to find a place that is quiet, comfortable, and fresh in order to maintain a stable state.

Lie on your back and relax your body. Beginners are best practiced in a supine position, which is most conducive to relaxation. Why relax? Only relaxation can last long; and only when you relax, you feel the most sensitive, you can experience the pulse of your own pulse, which is conducive to slowly understanding and feeling.

According to relevant reports, "People who practice sitting exercises have reduced oxygen consumption, which is roughly equivalent to the level of basal metabolism; those who practice lying exercises have a significantly lower oxygen consumption than those who had been resting in bed before exercise, which is lower than the basal metabolism level. There was a significant increase in oxygen consumption. The skin temperature also changed correspondingly, all of which were significantly higher than before the exercises, with sitting work being the most significant, lying work being the second, and standing piles being the least. It was found in 5 cases of 7 static exercises, metabolism The average rate is 19% lower than the basal metabolism, and the best case is 37% lower. This is related to the relaxation and relaxation of sympathetic nerves. Harvard's "relaxation response therapy" is similar to Song Jinggong, which is different from sleep or Sit quietly, so it can effectively combat some harmful psychological-physiological responses, restore the dysfunctional function to dynamic balance, and prevent and treat many psychosomatic diseases. "It can be seen that the supine supine oxygen consumption is lower, and the metabolic rate is lower than the basic metabolism.

Eliminate miscellaneous thoughts, shut your eyes and close your ears. That is, don't think about anything else, hear the surrounding sounds, and pretend that you haven't heard. People in ancient times valued this point very much. Han Wang Chong's "On Heng · Zi Ji" has the following records: "close eyes and stop Cong, love to keep yourselves."

Modern science has proven that adjusting breathing can promote blood circulation and prevent and treat many psychosomatic diseases. According to relevant reports, Qigong Body Adjustment "does not increase the burden on the heart, but also promotes blood circulation and is more suitable for rehabilitation. Adjusting the tightness of skeletal muscles can also affect blood circulation and blood distribution, thereby adjusting visceral function. Practicing Songjing People s blood vessels tend to dilate, and those who practice standing exercises have a vasoconstrictive response.

In fact, in general, the unified breathing method just slows down the breathing and lengthens it a little, which is nothing special. Pay attention to the quality of everything you do. A small adjustment to your breathing can greatly improve the quality of your breathing. Beginners should be as calm as possible and adjust their breathing naturally. Then, start to gradually adjust the speed, intensity and depth of breathing. Breathing in place can excite parasympathetic nerves, increase the number of bowel sounds, and facilitate digestion and absorption ...

There are a few things to note when practicing:

Alas, think of the whole body as a whole.

When breathing, treat your body as a whole at any time. If you can't do it well, you can think in turns about your legs, hands and arms, your head, your internal organs, and slowly you can think about it at the same time and connect the various parts together. In other words, when breathing, don't just think about the movement of the lungs and pulse, and pay attention to the whole body at all times.

When you practice, don't move as much as possible, don't have any movement. When itchy skin, tears, etc. appear, don't bother when you can't move. But spitting and snoring are fine.

(3) In terms of essentials, this law inherits and refers to traditional qigong knowledge. There are a few points to note: There is a saying of qigong called "the tongue sticks up, and the mind is focused on one area." That's right. That is, be natural, not nervous, just next to each other. There is a saying of "Qi Gong Dantian" for qigong. We will not do it. We can abdomen, but we must accept it. That is, be natural and not nervous. Qigong has a saying called "Anal Lifting", but it should be like Tifei, not as relaxed as when you poop. That is, be natural and not nervous.

Alas, although the number is "1,2,3,2,2,3 ..." but don't stop breathing, be natural, coherent, smooth and smooth.

According to each person's specific situation, step by step, work and rest combined. The unified breathing method agrees that everyone should constantly explore, explore and study according to their own specific conditions. For example, the practice time can be long or short, generally about an hour, some people can be longer, and some can be shorter. In terms of breathing, everyone will find a way and way that suits them. The exact same way and way does not exist. In addition, it should be combined with other itchy exercises. The International Health Organization has proposed a standard that everyone should adhere to aerobic exercise for at least half an hour a day, which is the most basic requirement.

The method is suitable for adults with a pulse rate of about 78 / min and no other diseases.

, People with mental illness, major bleeding, high fever, various acute diseases and acute infectious diseases should not practice.

Emphasizes nature to the speed, strength, and depth of breathing. "Nature" is the most important. At the beginning, if you can't be natural, you should also move closer to nature and gradually move towards nature. It may not be natural at first, but always pursue nature.

Alas, the important thing is feelings, feelings and feelings. For example, although the three aspects of breathing speed, strength, and depth are not complicated, it takes a long time to exercise, run in, and gradually experience, practice, and comprehend.

Puppet, urinate and other issues are resolved before practicing.

Alas, why people use Arabic numerals is because they are simple and practical. We know that the most important point in measuring the quality of an exercise is also to see if it is simple, practical, and easy to grasp. The unified breathing method meets this point, which is simple, practical, and easy to grasp: easy to remember, remember when you hear it; easy to understand, but it is usually learned in school; good to learn, the number "1,2 3 "adjust breathing, you can learn; good grasp, you can touch the pulse.

Simple environmental requirements, no equipment required, and relaxed time requirements.

(3) There are requirements for the "three degrees" of breathing, and they all choose the most appropriate method. There is a speed requirement: the matching of breathing and pulse is 1: 6. There are strength requirements, and the exhalation and inspiratory strength are different. There is a depth requirement. Inhaling to the abdomen is similar to "belly breathing".

Alas, not only inherited the essence of ancient Chinese medicine, qigong, but also combined and utilized modern scientific thoughts, methods, and knowledge.

, slow down breathing, adjust to the state closest to normal. We say that the safest way of breathing should also be the most natural way of breathing. The unified breathing method is easy to grasp the breathing method that is closest to normal, so it is safe and saves energy.

If the law is a technique or technique, it is better to say it is an art. There are rhythms and ups and downs.

The pursuit of nature is the characteristic of the unified breathing method. The law believes that only natural things can last, and only natural things can last. So, be as natural and relaxed as possible while practicing.

Qi and Qi breathing methods are part of the harmonious oscillation work. Starting with breathing, first is the harmony of the heart and lungs, and then the harmony of the various organs. You can gradually enter the practice of the harmonious oscillation method.
