When you inhale, your diaphragm lowers and widens to allow for expansion
of your lungs. At the end of an inhale, your diaphragm naturally rises to
assist in expelling the air from your lungs.
acts as a brake to control how much the lungs expand downward. The lower
floating ribs move up like bucket handles to allow space for the expansion.
When you lay flat on your back, you lose about 30% of your lung capacity.
Bend up your knees and you get most of it back.
Why You Should Breathe Through Your Nose As Much As Possible:
Breathing through your nose warms and filters the air before it reaches
your lungs. This is important for your immune system. Many germs and
toxins can be stopped by the filtration of your nose before they get deeper
system.
Breathing through your nose helps to balance your oxygen/CO2 levels.
CO2 is a master regulator for our internal health. Breathing through your
mouth makes it more difficult to use the oxygen in your system.
Learning to consciously connect with your breath, to slow it down, to breathe
through your nose as much as possible is a powerful method to bring you

When you become identified more with the timeless inner body
than with the outer body, when presence becomes your normal
mode of consciousness and past and future no longer dominate your
attention, you do not accumulate time anymore in your psyche and
in the cells of the body. The accumulation of time as the
psychological burden of past and future greatly impairs the cells
capacity for self-renewal. So, if you inhabit the inner body, the outer
body will grow old at a much slower rate, and even when it does,
your timeless essence will shine through the outer form, and you
will not give the appearance of an old person ~
