If you take small, more functional and natural steps in the beginning you will get bigger strides later on. The question of breathing is… to breath naturally, at more advanced levels… you can explore… breathing in different ways. I say this “if” ...one has access to first hand teachings and teachers to help keep people from being side tracked, even hurt (blood pressure for example from forcing the breath) that can keep them from making the easy possibilities of the simple functional gains that can be made. Simple kinesthetic experiences are worth much more than more complicated methods. I hope that helps Mike… good luck with your exploring(s)!

Maybe it depends on how I'm doing it?<br /><br />Thanks,<br />MikeMike at internalgongfu.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16522311573919277909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2837528477962488372.post-82816545948378238412011-10-12T20:44:50.647-04:002011-10-12T20:44:50.647-04:00Great info for the beginner, and an awesome remind...Great info for the beginner, and an awesome reminder for those who have been practicing for a few years as well.
