By Skillbooks Editorial

THE POWER OF BREATHING

 

DISCOVER THE BENEFITS OF HOLOTROPIC BREATHING ON THE BODY, MIND AND SPIRIT

ABOUT THIS BOOK

The simple act of breathing has enormous power to transform the mind, the body and life itself. Breathing deeply is simple and everyone can do it with a little attention and awareness, usually for reasons of relaxation and tranquility.

 

However, understanding how to develop the full potential of your breath allows you to go much deeper to unravel the very nature of your consciousness.

 

Holotropic breathing is a powerful technique for self-discovery and personal empowerment that builds on the inner wisdom we all already have within, freeing our capacity to guide us toward positive transformation and fulfillment.

 

The Greek term holos means "wholeness" and trepein means "to move in the direction of something." Therefore, holotropic literally means "moving toward wholeness."

 

This breathing was discovered in the 1970s by psychiatrist Stanislav Grof, whose goal was to create an unusual therapeutic approach to produce altered states of consciousness without the use of drugs.
