Breathing deeply, fully and completely calms energizes and fills you with peace and keeps you youthful. In the book are some simple exercises for energizing and rejuvenating the body, detoxifying and purifying the blood and calming the nerves.
While Patricia's flowery hat and her putting a cut out angel in the book for me to hang over my bed is a bit much for me, I did enjoy concentrating on my breathing with the exercises mentioned. It just took the authors a long time to get to the actual meat of the book as they filled it with fluff for the first 41 pages.
This book does make you want to sit up straighter and breathe more deeply, so for me, it was worth the read and I will use it as a future reference.
A great book about the necessity and many benefits of breathing fully and deeply. Filled with easy to understand explanations of how most people breathe incorrectly and tips on remedying this problem this book turned out to be much better than I expected.
Of course, there was a healthy amount of fluff and repetition throughout (theres only so many ways you can say fully oxygenating your body is important) but I didn't find it too annoying.
The information in this book immediately took an effect on me as I found myself practicing the breathing exercises, taking notes and even correcting my posture while I read. I already knew the importance of practicing deep breathing for health and vitality but this book took it to a whole new level for me. I highly recommend this book for anyone concerned about their health and overall well-being.

While this is obviously a self-published book and is in desperate need of an editor, it was quite interesting and informative. As a singer I'm a big believer in deep breathing, and encourage it throughout my "Total Body Radiance" program (http://www.totalbodyradiance.com). It was very interesting to find out how much research is out there on breathing, and just how many ailments it can help.
