Foundations

Body and Breath Awareness

​

The body is a part of space that you identify with yourself. When you fully become aware of the body the cognition of space changes.

​

The breath is the internal rythm that connects you to time. When you eliminate the pause between inhalation and exhalation the cognition of time changes.

​

Regarding the body and to understand how to go beyond 3 dimensional space 5 topics have to be studied carefully:

​

1. Proprioception - The sense of self in space

2. (Bio)Tensegrity - The hidden principle of interconnectedness

3. Fascia - The sensory organ of proprioception

4. Hydration - Body water compartments and water quality

5. Subtle Body - The missing link between mind and body

​

The first four topics are necessary to understand the 5th topic that connects all the other four together. These are the foundations of body awareness and stillness. 

​

To realize what the breath truly is, stillness of the body is required. The subtle internal movements of the life force are otherwise obscured by external movements and imbalances.
