First you stand up straight but not rigid. The idea is to relax before you do anything and allow your breathing to slow and to become deeper. When you are ready to begin, on the exhalation keep going by pulling in the muscles of the stomach a little. This is not supposed to be a lot of tension. If it is at all uncomfortable then you are trying too hard. Then you bend over forward to continue your exhalation. Relaxation is supposed to be maintained. The idea is to push all of the air out of the lungs, but this is actually not physically possible for a good reason: if you ever actually do it you will collapse both of your lungs and you will require the services of your local hospital. The idea so far is to just push out a lot more air than normally would occur and still maintain your relaxation. Then, holding the breath out, stand up and stretch yourself as tall as you can. This includes lifting your shoulders up. Naturally this will feel unfamiliar at first. When it actually starts to feel uncomfortable, slowly breathe in the fill the lungs completely. Take a few normal breaths before doing it again. When you are rested you can do it another time. The book which has these exercises suggests only doing this exercise in one session per day and only three times. When you have more practice with it you can use your good judgment to determine what is enough and what is too much. When you maintain relaxation and lack of excess force in your exercise you will find that it can be done for much more than one to two seconds. I started out closer to fifteen seconds after standing up before it became uncomfortable and have not yet pushed to the point of having my lungs actually demanding air.
As to the second question, I can only guess. When you breathe in and out you set up a lot of motions in your body. The internal organs are massaged, the spine is bent and straightened, lymph is circulated, and the flow of blood is assisted. My guess is that when you force all of the air from the lungs to the extent that it can be done, excess blood and lymph are pulled away from the pelvis and sexual organs. Chronic sexual arousal caused blood to stagnate there.
I also got problems raising my pelvis in exercise 4--which is weird seeing that I'm a gym fanatic...
Do you think it would help to adjust the distance between your feet, either bringing them closer together or setting them farther apart?
its the abdominal walls that don'ty wanna stretch
The fourth exercise is the hardest, it said. The exercises are supposed to be done three times each and then increased by two every week. They are also not supposed to be done past the point of discomfort. How are you doing with it? Is it getting any easier?
hey are you talking about the 5 tibetans??
ive been doing them for a while now (except the 6th)
i find the 5th the hardest.
what have you both found to be the most significant change??
i know they are all designed to strengthen the spine and clear the primary energy channel.... but with me ive only noticed my strength has increased.
when you do the 4th, are you meant to feel a slight strain near the bottom of the spine?? is that what the particular exerices is supposed to do, because thats what i get.
one thing about the first one, is the dizzy feeling actually the energy body? which we somehow tune into whilst spinning?
Yes, the five tibetans.
I a not doing them regularly enough to see much in the way of changes.
They are designed to work on the chakras and the benefits to the physical body are a result of the benefit to the chakras.
The fourth does seem to require a lot of flexibility, but it gets easier with practice.
There is not supposed to be dizziness when yo do the first exercise. Stop spinning when you get dizzy and go slower next time. You will be able to gradually increase the speed and quantity without dizziness.
Heya,
I've given the Tibetan6 a try [ http://bioresonant.com/tibetan6.html] and I last about a SECOND before my lungs demanded air.
two questions:
anyone tried it and lasted longer?????
HOW does the redirect of sexual energy WORK in that technique??
