"Our breathing is the fragile vessel that
carries us
from birth to death."
– Paramahansa Yogananda
We would like to personally thank each and every
one of you for your support and feedback for the
first edition of the Perfect
Breath E-Zine. The response has been
overwhelming, and affirms that we're on the right
track with providing the most compelling, insightful
and up-to-date information on every aspect of
breathing and how it can dramatically affect and
improve your life. More and more information is
emerging every day about the effects of stress on
personal health. It's surprising, and will continue to
be an ongoing theme for us. We've
discovered that simple mindful breathing can do much
to improve your health, your mental and physical
performance, and reduce stress and enhance
your emotional and spiritual wellbeing. Keep working
toward your "Perfect Breath." You'll be amazed at the
results.
As always, get the latest breath and breathing

Breath rates tied to blood pressure?
NIH study shows proposes daily slow breathing may be key to treating hypertension
Can you take fewer than 10 slow, deep breaths a
minute? New research from the National Institutes of
Health suggests breathing that slowly for
a few minutes a day is enough to help some people
nudge down bad blood pressure -- and that it has
less to do with relaxation than with breaking down
the salt most of us eat.

Did You Know...
Just before takeoff, people with a mild fear of
flying should take a deep breath, immediately exhale
forcefully and then hold their breath for 6 to 10
seconds. That is the advice of Professional
Association of German Psychiatrists (known by its
German initials BVDP), which said the technique
relaxes muscles and takes the mind off one's fears.

Jennifer Kries: The Balance of Body and Breath
Master Pilates instructor, dancer, owner of Balance NYC Studio derives power from the breath
In her work as a master Pilates instructor, Jennifer
Kries spends countless hours addressing the "core,"
the human powerhouse from which, she counsels, all
movement should initiate. Kries was among the first
to synthesize a fresh fitness method that
incorporates the pioneering work of Joseph Pilates, a
discipline that emanates from a series of stretching
and toning exercises. Kries has sewn into the fabric
of her teaching the conditioning techniques and
liberating spirit of dance and the profound power of
the breath as taught in yoga...
