Guest guest Posted March 13, 2004 Report Share Posted March 13, 2004 Hi Folks-- In running one of America's leading high-tech-oriented public relations firms for many years, I learned a lot about stress and its influence on our health and well-being. As you probably know, many researchers today believe that excessive stress is related to 60-80 percent of all doctors visits, and is often implicated in numerous diseases. After I left the company, I did quite a bit of research on the relationship of stress to breathing, and found that the excessive stress in our lives clamps down on our breathing, which further increases our stress levels...and so on and so forth. I then wrote a book called " The Tao of Natural Breathing: for Health, Well-Being, and Inner Growth, " which quickly became one of the leading books on breathing, and has been used by many thousands of readers to help reduce stress. I also developed a website that offers some free breathing practices that can help with stress, as well as a free newsletter--Authentic Breathing News (more than 3000 rs) that offers important breathing insights, exercises, and research. My new book " Free Your Breath, Free Your Life: How Conscious Breathing Can Relieve Sress, Increase Vitality, and Help You Live More Fully " is being published by Shambhala Publications in May (you can see the cover and read some advance praise for the book by MDs and others on my website). Here is a quote from a leading MD about it: " Lewis teaches us how to assess our breathing and provides practical tools to help us learn to breathe better and create a healthier balance in our everyday lives. He makes clear that how we breathe reflects who we are and the manner in which we express ourselves-- physically, emotionally, and spiritually. This book is a wonderful resource for anyone who wishes to improve his or her health and vitality through the breath. " —Len Saputo, M.D., coeditor of " Boosting Immunity: Creating Wellness Naturally " . I hope you will take a look at my website, try the free practices, read some of the articles on breathing and other subjects, and sign up for my free newsletter. With my best wishes to all, Dennis Lewis Authentic Breathing Resources LLC http://www.authentic-breathing.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
