Senobi deep breathing relieves depression, anxiety, asthma, colds, bronchitis, other lung conditions. Senobi deep breathing even helps you lose weight. Relax and feel better all over with Senobi deep breathing.
The Senobi Deep Breathing Technique, with its natural deep abdominal breathing, can help nearly everyone. Developed in Japan where it is widely used, the amazing Senobi Deep Breathing Exercise Technique produces outstanding health benefits in just three minutes a day.
Senobi deep breathing is a very easy to do, invigorating, stretching and breathing technique. It creates profound states of relaxation and enjoyment, and is superior for improving breathing for anyone. It improves breathing in any lung condition, including colds, bronchitis, and even asthma. It also helps with weight loss, even for the morbidly obese.
The key to the Senobi deep breathing technique is in this sentence: The Senobi posture naturally imposes either deep abdominal or deep thoracic breathing.
The Senobi deep breathing method can be performed either seated or standing and with hands either together or not. You extend your arms over your head with palms facing the sky (with fingers either intertwined or not), lean back and stretch (with arms and neck arched backward). This posture opens the area between the shoulder blades and imposes abdominal breathing. Inhale for 5 to 7 seconds and exhale for 5 to 7 seconds. Repeating the inhale and exhale at least 3 times. Repeat the process for at least three minutes of Senobi deep breathing per day.
A variation of the Senobi deep breathing technique imposes deep thoracic breathing in the lung area. Do this variation while seated or standing and with hands facing each other together or not. You extend your arms over your head with palms facing each other (with fingers either intertwined or not), lean back and stretch (with arms and neck arched backward). This posture closes the area between the shoulder blades and naturally imposes deep thoracic breathing.
In the Senobi deep breathing weight loss study:
The Senobi deep breathing weight loss study was unique for its simplicity: It used breathing to activate the sympathetic nervous system which helps weight loss by increasing metabolic activity.”
In the Senobi deep breathing asthma study:
In the Senobi breathing asthma study, the researchers used heart rate measurements to determine levels of parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system dominance. Excessive levels of parasympathetic control are believed to cause asthma symptoms because the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight), which is in control of opening the airway passages, lacks the strength to balance the parasympathetic system. The Senobi deep breathing stretch corrects this by activating the sympathetic nervous system thus opening airway passages.
Asthmatic patients performed Senobi deep breathing stretch exercise regularly for one month. At the study’s conclusion, the majority of patients had decreased the use of their inhalers and showed an increase in expiration volume.
In the Senobi deep breathing depression study:
In the Senobi breathing depression study, researchers found that Senobi deep breathing stimulates the sympathetic nervous system to alleviate depression.
Drain away your congestion. Reduce your stress. Relax your tense, tight muscles. Reduce the effects of sinus, colds and flu. Help get all of your muscles, organs, and body systems to function optimally with this simple once-a-day exercise: the do it yourself full body lymphatic massage
In this video, Donna Eden is massaging all of the body’s lymphatic massage points to improve the function of every muscle, every organ, and every system in the body.
She is stimulating-pressing all of the neurolymphatic points in order to help stimulate the body’s muscles, organs, and whole body to function optimally.
When doing the exercise shown in the video, it is usually not necessary to press as vigorously or go as fast as does Donna Eden. If you do it more gently, you will get excellent results, too.
In this video, Donna Eden’s lymphatic massage is based upon Kinesiology and Touch for Health – which were developed by two chiropractors, George Goodheart and John Thie, respectively – over 30 years ago. They developed these systems by referring to the TCM Chinese energy meridians and correlating the body’s muscles, organs, and systems to the body’s neurolymphatic points, neurovascular points, spinal reflexes, and more.
Remember, with this simple once-a-day lymphatic massage exercise, anyone can help improve the function of their muscles, organs, and bodily systems.
What it takes is regular, persistent effort! If you make the effort to do this lymphatic massage daily or at least three times per week, you will feel better soon. As you repeat the lymphatic massage over a period of time, you will keep feeling better and better. The benefits are cumulative and can be immense.
How the Lymphatic Massage Reflex Points Correlate to Our Body Organs
The lymphatic points that Donna Eden is massaging in the video are shown on the diagram below.
When you give yourself a lymphatic massage, you are influencing the function of your internal organs. Why? Because each lymphatic reflex point is related to a body organ, so by massaging the lymphatic point that relates to an organ, you are helping the function of that related organ.
Give it a try. As an example, if your stomach or small intestine do not feel good for a few hours after eating, find the lymphatic points for the stomach and small intestine and give them a massage. That is how easy it is to help yourself with the do-it-yourself lymphatic massage.
Here are several TCM acupuncture – acupressure points that help relieve the sympoms of colds and flus, including congestion and nasal-throat drainage.
Acupressure cannot cure colds or flus, but acupressure can shorten their duration and build up your immunity to help you resist future colds and flus.
Massaging or pressing on these acupressure points stimulates your body to heal in many ways. One way that these points relieve your cold or flu symptoms is by improving the function of your lymphatic system, thus allowing your lymph system to properly remove waste materials from your system.
Key Acupressure points for colds and flu are listed here.

Yes, you can prevent sinus and respiratory infections just by humming! That seems a bit really weird, so let’s fInd out more about this.
Daily humming accomplishes two things for our sinuses: (1) increases air exchanged between the sinuses and the nasal passages and (2) increases blood flow in the sinuses.
During humming, the air exchanged between the nasal passages and the sinuses is 98 percent – almost a complete exchange. But during normal exhalation, without humming, the air exchange rate is only 4 percent.
In addition, sinuses are one of the body’s major producers of nitric oxide. And nitric oxide helps dilate capillaries and increase blood flow in the body. Strikingly, when nitric oxide levels are measured during humming, the nitric oxide levels are 15 times higher than during normal breathing.
Poor air exchange between the sinuses and the nasal passages plus poor blood circulation in the sinus cavities create a good environment for bacteria to grow and develop into infections.
So daily humming could definitely help you prevent sinusitis and upper respiratory infections.
In addition, when we get a sinus or respiratory infection, humming could help us recover faster.
What could be easier than humming. And if humming can help us both prevent and recover from infections, what do we have to lose by trying it.
