every country in the, world. So
take the liberty of describing few
of his many systems of exercise
here.
First, the breathing exercise.
Life depends on breath. This is
first and greatest in importance
Stand erect and naturally, with the
hands on the hips and the chin
tilted back. Breathe deeply and
slowly. filling lungs and stomach
with air. Hold, release slowly Re-
peat several times.
After some days of this, breath
ing every morning after this fash
ion, try this: Stand as before, but,
as you inhale, raise yourself to
your toes, lowering yourself TO the
heels again as you exhale. And
when this has been mastered.
breathe this way-Tise on the toes,
bend the knees till you squat
while inhaling, rising to straighten
the knees and lowering your body
to rest on the heels, as you exnsie.
This third form of breathing is a
bit hard and needs the practice OF
the two other methods before you
will be able to balance yourself.
