A.- Breathing exercises without movement:

          Static breathing exercises can be trained being seated, lying down or standing up. They teach us the basic ways of breathing and help us become aware of them in different ways: first, we get concentrated in the breathing process and secondly, we consciously notice the physical and mental sensations that take place in our organism when breathing. All this helps our BEING (SAM BAU “Jing”, “Chi”, “Shen”).

B.- Dynamic breathing exercises standing up:

          These exercises are trained standing up with a wide movement of the vertebrae.

          B.1. Lumbar vertebrae work out “low door” for the low Dan Tien.

          B.2. Thoracic vertebrae work out “medium door” for the medium Dan Tien.

          B.3. Cervical vertebrae work out “upper door” for the upper Dan Tien.

          B.4. Vertebral column work out “three doors”, center-sides-center.

          Exercise to move the “three doors” as we both coordinate the three types of breathing and move energy (Qi) all around our body.
