The Miracle of the Breath

I have just finished reading a book called "The Miracle of the Breath" by Andy Caponigro. This book clearly describes breathing techniques to use for healing your body and mind as well breathing exercises to connect to the Divine. Andy Caponigro has studied the history of breath in Indian, Chinese, Christian and Hebrew cultures and weaves stories and facts into the book.

The exercises are very simple and easy to use and the approach is consistent with the approach we use in Feldenkrais in that it is easy, gentle, and mindful. If you are wanting to get into a meditation routine I highly recommend the approach described in this book.
