Description:
Yoga benefits, as ancient yoga texts teach, are in breathing less air 24/7, even less than the tiny medical respiratory norm. Then one can expect more oxygen in the brain and other organs, and experience true yoga benefits. Millions of people think and believe in a myth that yoga progress is about more and more difficult asanas or just spiritual enlightenment. However, you can practice asanas for months or years, but this does not provide any guarantee that your health is going to improve.

You can eat tons of supplements and super-foods, drink canisters of herbal drinks, have hundreds of colonic irrigations, and practice yoga for many hours every day, but if your body's oxygen level remains the same, you will suffer from the same symptoms and require the same dosage of medication. You can also have years of spiritual practice while getting sicker and sicker with cancer, diabetes, or some other condition.

Only 2-3 generations ago, yoga did cure chronic diseases. Old American health journals from the 1920s and ’30s were full of advertisements for yoga courses with money-back guarantees. Those yoga courses were for people with asthma, hypertension, chronic fatigue, insomnia, and other common conditions. Old yoga gurus could provide their pupils with numerous yoga benefits in weeks or, at most, in months because they knew one yoga secret. Millions of people restored their health with old, traditional yoga.

The main yoga benefit relates to better body oxygenation or correct automatic breathing. If you get this yoga benefit, all other benefits will follow. Then you can get an astonishing level of energy, perfect digestion, excellent sleep, and greatly improved physical fitness.

Why could modern yoga teachers not replicate the same success? What is wrong or different in contemporary yoga leaders and their teaching? Why do most yoga courses provide almost no yoga benefits?

Modern yoga teachers cannot explain, in exact numbers, the ideal breathing pattern that provides maximum body O2 levels. What do they say? Most yoga teachers claim that we need to breathe more air (even at rest) and expel “toxic” CO2.

Modern science testifies about the solid physiological foundation of ancient yoga: when we breathe more air at rest (hyperventilation), we have less O2 in body cells. Breathing more air does not increase blood oxygenation to any significant degree. A person can breathe twice less or several times more than the medical norm, but blood oxygenation will be about the same or about 97-99 %. But CO2 is the crucial factor for O2 transport. The book explains why slow and small breathing (with more CO2) provides more O2 for the cells.

Thousands of recent research studies have proven beyond all doubt that chronic health problems, on a cell level, are based on low O2 levels. This relates to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, obesity, arthritis, inflammatory conditions, cystic fibrosis, HIV-AIDS, and many other conditions. You cannot have normal body oxygenation and lifestyle disease. Therefore, freedom from diseases is among the main yoga benefits.

Hundreds of research studies measured the breathing of healthy people, ordinary people, and people with chronic diseases. Dozens of these studies and their exact results are quoted in this book. These studies testify to the triumph of ancient yoga and its benefits.

Deep breathing, as during pranayama, only looks deep. In reality, pranayama should be done with maximum breath holds and accumulation of CO2 to have slower breathing after the practice and 24/7. Only with progress in pranayama, one can get the main yoga benefits. These discoveries belong to Dr. KP Buteyko, a leading Soviet physiologist and the author of the famous Buteyko breathing method.

Progress in yoga can be measured using a simple DIY body-oxygen test described in this book. If you get over 40 seconds of O2 for this easy test, then you will be astonished by the changes in your health and reality.
