The main goal of Soma Breath is to correct your breathing so that your normal rate of breathing at rest is 3-4 breaths per minute. On average, people breathe 10+ breaths per minute. Very sick or highly stressed people breathe over 20+ breaths per minute. Soma Breath can help protect against disease, balance your emotions and help you be more in the flow.
When you are overly emotionally stressed due to the burdens of everyday living, your body switches on the same physiological response as when under physical stress i.e. when doing strenuous physical exercise. Your oxygen demand goes up and you breathe faster and shallower, even though you do not need to consume as much oxygen as if doing exercise.
If you imagine you have a fire in your body, just any fire, oxygen is needed for the fire to burn. However, too much oxygen causes the fire to burn too brightly, causing damage. Too little oxygen, the fire doesn’t burn at all, and no energy is created. Just the right amount of oxygen is required.
Just like metal rusts in the presence of oxygen, so does your body, and it’s called oxidative stress. Oxygen control is necessary to prevent oxidative stress in the body. Antioxidants in food is necessary to prevent oxidative stress that causes free radical damage to cells. So correct breathing means less food is required.
Therefore, being able to breathe less, manage stress and still function efficiently is the goal of Soma Breath. Becoming highly efficient at using oxygen means you become highly efficient at creating energy and therefore you become healthier, stronger and happier as a result.
Breathwork also has the power to peel back the many layers of your psyche, revealing your subconscious meta-programming. These are hardwired beliefs, habits and imprints that have shaped your future and world view since birth. Through special breathing exercises combined with hypnotic suggestion, that is The Awakening ritual, you can re-imprint the subconscious operating system with a new, more empowered set of habits and beliefs that will lead to your eventual liberation and un-robotization.
Your breath shall set you free…
