Live natural and use yoga technics
Breath is our fundamental life technique, received from birth at the navel. We direct awareness to points like the navel, heart, mouth, and nostril to understand breathing. This practice is ancient, shared by ṛṣis and scientists, and is not quick but inherent to all life. Humans, unlike animals who know instinctively, often take in what is not good. We can learn from nature, like long-living trees. A story of a great yogī and an ancient tree illustrates this connection to enduring life, reminding us to proceed with awareness.
"Immediately, the navel begins to receive the breath. When that opens, then you cannot go anywhere else like that."
"Animals, their life, they know exactly how."
