Breathe Smart: The Secret to Happiness, Health, and Long Life

by Aaron Hoopes

In this little book, author, instructor and holistic healer, Aaron Hoopes brings over twenty-five years of experience in the martial arts, Qigong, fitness training and meditation to bear on one of the most fundamental dimensions of good proper breathing. He calls it a "secret" not because it is hidden or mysterious, but because so little attention is paid to it. Breathe Smart shows us how, through "Conscious Breathing" we can raise our level of oxygen intake and reap the benefits of increased energy, better health and a stronger sense of well-being.
