Bill: Is it violent?. What I have tried is that every time I'm about of getting into the bath, laying my back on the very cold material of the bath I emit a very long sound with the syllable "om"letting the breath going out through the sound. The sound here doesn't come violent. However , while trying to get into the sea for a swim when its waters are still cold it makes me Yell very loudly with strange sounds in the awareness of in/out fast breathing and fast movements of my both legs jumping as in a water marathon reheating my body.. Didn't notice if the breath was violent. I'll try to attention to that. But I know that in the beach everyone can hear me yelling. That yelling is actually very good because it helps me to cope and reheat my body better. Mayka --- On Thu, 21/10/10, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote:

This is an excellent breathing technique…Bill!

That sounds terrible Chris. And this is what I meant by reading or overhearing about breathing but with no experience at all into that. As a woman I should have encouraged her to yell as much as she wanted if that would help her to dilate better and cope her pain. I would have hold her hand very gentle but very firm and talk to her with reassurance and kindnest. LIstening to her voice, to her body.. Being one with her. Breathing with her. It's the heart acting as the guide that brings all that sensitivity, unity between a patient and a carer, nurse, doctor...I wonder if they can make an statistics about the heart too.

Scientists are humans, and there has already been much suffering relieved by the meditation based therapies described in the article. Science is another human activity. I agree tho for physically therapies you want a person who does their work with grace. Your story reminded me of a nurse that was present while my wife was delivering our first born, with out pain meds and therefor rather loudly working at labor. At some point the yelling upset the nurse who yelled at my wife, "do your relaxing breathing that you learned." despite the indubitable power of conscious breathing, it was not a helpful thing to yell at that time. __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5549 (20101020) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 5549 (20101020) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com
