Re: [BardonPraxis] Re: pore breathing

["Rawn Clark" <rawnclark@...>]

Dear Zach,

Throughout IIH and KTQ, Bardon repeatedly said to NOT induce any
irregularities to the normal breathing rhythm and rate when performing
these exercises. The reason being that many of the physical effects you
described here can be achieved by merely slowing the breath to, as you
say, one or two cycles per minute, and have nothing to do with an
accumulation of the VE, or with pore breathing, per se. This makes it
very hard for the student to differentiate between the sensations
produced by a prolonged slowing of the breath, verses the natural
effects of pore-breathing an accumulation of the VE.

My question to you is two-fold: a) can you achieve an accumulation of
the VE through pore breathing *without* altering your normal breathing
speed; and b) does this produce the same physical sensations?

My best to you,
:) Rawn Clark
