Bone Breathing
1) Adopt the 7-Point Body Posture.
2) Practice Belly Breathing for a few moments.
3) Bring your Body, Speech, and Mind to Rest.
4) Place your attention on the sensation of the surface area of your entire body.
5) Gently move your attention from the surface area of your body into the sensations of your
musculature structure,
then the
pulsing of blood in the arteries,
and then the
skeletal structure.
6) Gently move your attention from the sensation of your skeletal structure into the very bone marrow, itself.
7) With each inhalation, sense and see the energy of the breath enter deep into the bone marrow.
8) With each exhalation, sense and see the energy of the breath shining out through all the pores of your body.
9) Continue for as long as is comfortable, relaxing deeper with each breath.
10) With dedicated practice, your abilities of sensing and visualizing the interior of your body will improve greatly.
