The breathing technique begins by balancing the length of our inhales and exhales sending the message to our system that we are safe. Here we relax the body, calm the mind, and use our focus on the breath to ground into the present moment.

Next, we slowly extend the length of just the exhale. Now we are signaling to the brain through the vagus nerve to turn down the response of our sympathetic nervous system (‘fight or flight') and turn up our parasympathetic nervous system (‘rest and digest'). This aids in our body's and mind's response to difficulties. The longer we extend our exhale, the more our diaphragm and abdomen (but not the chest) are engaged to slow and steady the breath equalizing our respiration cycle into a state of deep relaxation.

With the system in a more balanced and relaxed state, you will begin to feel the alchemy occurring. Often it will feel as if the energy in the body is moving from a scattered pattern to a more channeled direction. Stay here as long as you need, perhaps finding that you are more able to accept and allow whatever arises.

Once we've softened the body, calmed the mind, and created a bit of a distance from the intensity of our experience, we may gain some clarity. In the final breaths, there is one last invitation to alchemize difficult emotions and thoughts using a positive "I AM" affirmation. If you are feeling fearful, try "I AM SAFE". If there is a lot of negative chatter, try "I AM LOVED". And if anxiety has the best of you, try "I AM KNOWING". Here is a step-by-step guide to the Breathwork for Alchemy practice:

1. Begin laying down on your back with your eyes closed or sitting-up softly gazing at a point in front of you.
2. Count the length of your natural exhale (e.g. count of 4). Match your inhale length to the exhale (e.g. inhale for 4, exhale for 4). Stay here until you notice a shift in the way you are feeling.
3. Begin to extend only the exhale by 1 or 2 counts (e.g. inhale for 4, exhale for 6). Stay here for at least 2 breaths, longer if needed.
4. Extend the exhale by another 1 or 2 counts, slowly working your way up to doubling the original count (e.g. inhale for 4, exhale for 8). Allow each exhale to soften you deeper into the body. Imagine a melting sensation. Stay here until you achieve a more centered and relaxed state of being.
5. In the final breaths, let go of counting but continue to keep the exhales long, slow, and gentle. Repeat your "I AM" affirmation with each exhale, melting the affirmation into the body.
6. Thank yourself. Breathwork is deeply compassionate self-care.

This is a handy and effective little energy mudra that you can do anywhere to address acute conditions, or to create a routine for chronic pains and conditions. Discovered, or received by healer, Jimmy Mack, My Liquid Fish is a finger motion. Begin with the index finger of either hand, hold it on or near the area in need, and then draw a "fish" as you move your finger away from the area to be healed. Energy can be drawn into an area by simply reversing the motion of the finger by starting away from the focus area and drawing the "fish", ending the motion on or near the area of interest. I use this daily, and have noticed it causes a shift where it is applied, and changes the pain or discomfort, in many cases simply taking it away. -- From 25 No Cost Health & Healing Hacks by Boyd Martin)

Everything Is Conscious

The moderator of the discussion was a devout raw food advocate, declaring that the reason people get diseases and age prematurely is because they exclusively ate "dead food." Almost everyone in the room was nodding in agreement.

But one impressive-looking gentleman with white hair and full beard suddenly stood up during a small pause in the discussion, and said, "It's not important that we judge food as 'living' or 'dead'. It's the energy of consciousness we are eating--not vegetable matter."

There was a long pause while everyone realized he was directly contradicting the moderator, who looked a bit perplexed. "That is an interesting point," he finally blurted out. "But there is life energy in raw foods that cooking removes."

Unperturbed, the white-haired gentleman replied, "There is life energy in everything because it came from the Creator, and by our conscious eating and respiration we renew ourselves. Besides, cooked food is much less stressful on the body to digest." The moderator nodded noncommittally and then quickly introduced a juicing advocate. But I instantly understood what the gentleman was saying, and felt a little silly thinking there were "good" and "bad" ways to feed the body.

There is a yoga of nutrition called Hrani Yoga, coined by Bulgarian mystic and teacher, Omraan Aivanhov. This yoga orbits around the concept of the cosmic exchange of energies between a human and the Universe. True nutrition has less to do with exactly what you eat, but HOW you eat it.

The practice stresses liquifying in the mouth each bite of food and imbuing it with one's own inner light before swallowing. The body then much more effectively uses the various essences, elements, and etheric energies to repair and rejuvenate itself. In short, eating is an exchange of consciousness between a human soul and the Creator.

"Life is nothing more than an endless exchange between the universe and the tiny atoms that we represent. Cosmic life flows into humans, who impregnate it with their own emanations before sending it back into the universe. Once again they absorb this life and, once again, they return it. It is this ongoing exchange between humans and the universe that we call nutrition--that we call respiration--that we also call love." -- Omraan Aivanhov

A larger point is that everything is energy and that energy is consciousness. From a cosmic perspective, a rock is just as conscious as a stalk of raw celery--just harder to chew (heh, heh). Just as a celery plant begins its form from the germ of a seed, extending through its DNA into a mature plant, and then transforming into decay among very much alive bacteria--it never actually "dies". It is metamorphosed or evolved into raw materials for future celery plants, or anything else needing its de-molecularized and atomized constituents, which then becomes another form.

The rock has a similar cycle, being a product of earth geologic activity, gravity, geopathic pressures, weather, and other interactions with the plant, animal, insect, bacterial and human kingdoms. It is simple to see that a rock's "life" trajectory could very easily intersect the life trajectory of the celery form, as at some point it becomes the growing medium for the plant kingdom.

I propose that we get away from making the distinction of "living" or "dead", because it is a limited view that is biased against transformations of forms. My younger brother "died" recently from cancer, but did he? He is still considered "my brother" regardless of his form. I knew him as an infant, a mature man, cremated remains, and now he is still my brother in the etheric realms--no less real than his physical incarnation.

By allowing ourselves to access wider bandwidths of perception, we discover a larger Cosmic Life where physical forms shapeshift into other forms, all souls are never "lost", and every point in the universe is a conscious portal to everyone we've ever known, everywhere we've ever been, and to Source.

It is easy to get hung up on the physicality of this density of consciousness, but it is no more real than anything, anywhere, or anyone we can imagine. We are all of it. We must allow that there is a cultural bias against what we imagine to be "real", and what we assign to be physically "real". Cosmically, there is no difference. Our inner experience is also our outer experience. As Bashar says, "There is no 'out there'. It's all in here. It's all now."

Everything we touch with the fingers of our physical body, or our mind, or our imagination--is alive with the consciousness of Source--always in transition, always transforming, changing and exchanging without end. It is about living the Infinite Quantum Life... the Conscious Life... the Creator's Life... Your Life.

To your quantum health,
