Your Sacrum and Mastoid

Continuing on with the Little Breath Technique, let’s look at how you can use the rhythm of your breath to actively vitalise and lift your skeletal system, starting with your sacrum.

With regard to the Little Breath technique, whether you’re using the 3-STEP, 5-STEP, or the 7-STEP, your 1st IN-breath is always directed and emanates from around your sacral region.

As you probably know, your sacrum is located at the base of your spine and has many functions.

Functions that are obvious and many that are a lot less known, but suffice to say your sacrum is more than just a simple bone that sits on the bottom of your spine.

You see resting on this triangular shaped bone called the sacrum is not only your spine, but the entire integrity of your central nervous system.

As your body’s central nervous system is housed within your spine, and your spine rests on your sacrum, you can get an idea of how important this triangular shaped bone is to both mobility and vitality.

Consciously directing your breath energy down to your body’s sacral area can dramatically restore and improve a lot of your body’s functions.

Activating the Diaphragm: The 1st Breath

In the beginning, when you’re not energetically connected to this region (as you will be with practice), place the back of either one of your hands on your sacrum and imagine your pulling your 1st IN-breath down to this bone.

Do this a few times and what you may notice is when your do pull your breath down to your sacrum, at the same time your belly expands.

Yes breathing down into your sacrum engages your diaphragm.

It preps your body for respiratory expansion from the bottom up.

Activating the Base of the Skull On Your Last IN-Breath

Using the 3-STEP as i do in this video, your 2nd IN-breath is directed upward to the base of your skull.

Esoterically known as the Gates of Consciousness and exoterically the Mastoid Process, when you pull your breath up to this area it not only helps fill your lungs, it helps to open the heart region as the ribs expand.

The focus should always be to draw the air up as you pull your chin in and lift your head up from the back of your skull.

What are the “Gates of Consciousness?”

The Gates of Consciousness are exactly what they sound like… gates.

And like any set of gates, they can be open or closed!

As your consciousness is housed in your nervous system, by using your breath in this way, the lifting of your spine reduces the compaction and compression of your nervous system allowing for the improved transmission, and most importantly the reception of neural signals.

The better the transmission and reception of neural signals, the better the ability is for consciousness to be bathed in electrical light.

That’s why chiropractors call the misalignment of vertebrae a “subluxation”.

Most electricians will know we measure light in lux energy!

Subluxation: An impediment to light energy!

The Exhale: Engaging the Core for Spinal Lift

Your exhalation is the key to a full spinal extension.

Engaging your core is vital on the exhale as it both lifts your spine and allows your respiration to easily bring in life-giving oxygen.

As i’m using the 3-STEP for this video, your OUT-breath is one breath out as your squeeze your belly in.

Be it the 3-STEP, 5-STEP, or the 7-STEP, the same principles apply.

Integrating the Little Breath Technique into Your Daily Life

Make the Little Breath technique a part of your daily life by integrating your practice in your daily life.

Here are some tips to help remember.

  1. Use it every time you’re walking.
  2. Use it when you’re running, paddling at the gym, even meditating.
  3. Practice while waiting in line.
  4. Do it before meetings.
  5. Use it every time you’re walking.

Make work work for you!

Posture Check Reminders

  1. As you breathe IN, lift your shoulders Up, Back and Down.
  2. As you breathe OUT, point your thumbs in the direction you’re going, pull your chin in and lift your head up from the back of your skull!

The truth is, it’s all about your breath, mind and body connection.

i wish you well on your journey!
