Dear John:

“Every person has an inexhaustible creative and innovative energy. We can mobilize this energy in order to grow… Daoist saying: ‘When you are ‘sick’, do not seek a cure. Find your centre (Hara) and you will be healed.’…

“Practicing Hara breathing… With your mouth closed, breathe in, only using the muscles of your lower abdomen, gently pushing and breathing out. With each inhalation feel your abdomen filling and expanding – like a balloon…  Gradually slow down your breathing, allowing an ever-longer interval of time after each exhalation and before the next inhalation”.

(End of Quotes). The boldfaced above is very meaningful to me, and the Hara breathing- I will practice it. Thank you.
