The
benefits of the breathing method are
multi-leveled. You will essentially be able to use more of your lung capacity, which
has its obvious direct benefits. However,
the movements and breaths are, in a
sense, connecting all of our vital organs
together so they can function at a balance
- and together as a whole system it
was meant to be.
To mention some of the
most noticeable and appreciated results,
we have compiled this list.
Increased Energy Level – More air gives us more energy.
Energy that allows us to focus, move,
and carry on our day-to-day activities.
More Endurance –
Athletes know that endurance is directly
related to the speed of our breath.
If we are able to maintain slower breaths
during exercise, our endurance will
naturally improve. So with an increased
lung capacity, it’s no wonder
students have been able to run faster,
longer, and harder.
Joint Conditioning & More
Strength - The Chinese believe
that strength is in the joints, not
muscles. By conditioning your joints,
you are increasing the precision of
your movements, and preserving it from
deterioration often causing arthritis, back pain, and other
joint problems that involve tendons,
ligaments, and bones.

Greater
Flexibility without Stretching
– Better air and blood
circulation will certainly
keep your tendons supple by continuously
and efficiently providing all of the
needed resources.
Lose Weight –
A well-balanced digestive system will
help those overweight to reach a healthier
weight level. Master Lu is currently
producing supplementary programs
that will achieve the goal of weight
loss even quicker.
Better Focus / Clarity – A portion of the oxygen we breathe
in travel to the brain. Practicing the
breathing method will immediately help
you experience mental clarity.
Increase in Bone Density – Strong bones will prevent cracking
and breaking of bones. For elders, it
may prevent problems related to osteoporosis.
The list continues as each new student
learns the method. One thing to keep
in mind is, The Five Elements Breathing
Method will keep you active
for life!
Longer Breaths = Longer Life?
From studying the table below, althought not absolutely scientific, it gives us an idea that creatures taking longer breathes lives a longer life. It seems that there is a good chance deeper breaths can have a positive effect on longevity.
