Transcript (English)

Hi, I'm Ed. Welcome to Ed's Breathing Space. Today we're doing a dual-flow breathing sequence. This powerful practice can boost your energy, immunity, and mental and physical well-being. Let's go over the breathing styles we'll use. First, Power Breath: in through your nose, out through your mouth. For Iceman Breath, make an O with your mouth. Breathe in and out through your mouth. For Three-Part Breath, inhale in three stages.

Then exhale once. You can inhale through your nose or mouth. Next is Circular Breath. Open your mouth and throat fully. Like panting after intense exercise. Leave no pause between the inhale and exhale. Next is Energy Breath. Breathe in and out through your nose.

Then there's Cleansing Breath. Inhale twice, then exhale once. For Reverse Cleansing Breath, inhale once. Then exhale in two parts. Now for Dual-Flow Breath. First is Power Dual Flow. Start with Power Breath. Then Cleansing Breath.

Next, Power Breath again. Then Reverse Cleansing Breath. That's it. It's the same with Iceman Breath. Start with Iceman Breath. Then Cleansing Breath. Next, Iceman Breath again. Then Reverse Cleansing Breath.

For Energy Dual Flow, start with Energy Breath. Then Cleansing Breath. Next, Energy Breath again. Then Reverse Cleansing Breath. Okay. That covers the breathing styles. Now let me share a few breathing tips.

First, to take fuller breaths and draw in more air, exhale more completely. As you exhale, feel your whole body let go. Second, throughout the practice, keep your whole body relaxed. Let your body expand freely, too.

Third, as you breathe, focus on your breath. Let nothing distract you. And finally, number four: when you hold your breath, keep a smile on your face. This can help reduce inflammation and, over time, help us feel

happier and more fulfilled. Okay, without further ado, let's begin. Round 1. Iceman–Cleansing Dual Flow. Make an O with your mouth. Breathe in. Exhale fully with a ha. Feels great, doesn't it?

It's like dancing around a tribal fire.

Iceman–Reverse Cleansing. In through your mouth, out through your mouth. Exhale with a ha. Breathe in fully. Exhale fully.

Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Breathe in deeply. Hold.

Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Exhale. Hold. Feel your whole body at once. Release any tension.

Tension in your body is like your thoughts. Just let them both go.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Breathe in deeply. Hold. You may start feeling tingly and lightheaded. That means you're doing it right. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Exhale. Let's move into the next round.

Three-Part Breath.

Circular Breath. Oh, that feels good! Keep it up. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Breathe in deeply. Hold. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Circular Breath. Just a little longer.

Go, go, go!

5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Breathe in deeply. Hold. 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Exhale. Hold. Here, without concepts or words, who are you?

Can you find the center of your awareness? Stay here, free of concepts. Keep following the sensations in your body.

In this moment, concepts fall away. Stay with these unnamed but wonderful sensations. Five, four, three, two, one. Breathe in deeply. Hold. Five, four, three. Two. One. That completes this round.
