Look, yoga as with everything else requires vigilance. You have to pay attention and do what is needful to maintain a healthy body.

I put a 3 inch memory foam on top of my mattes it helped increase the quality of my sleep, especially if a person sleeps sideways because it allows for better contouring around the shoulder area to support more evenly.

Have a great day!

Yoga was not allowed its allotted time, on account of ill health, and extreme family as well as work pressures.

Comments:

I made an appointment to my physician since a simple cold/flu ought to have left the body by now. That should provide some band aid solution.

The root cause is not being eradicated. My current trend of life is so abusive to my system as a whole that it has made it vulnerable to a variety of ailments.

I have maintained and persisted in spite of the pressures for quiet sometime, and even amazed myself of the accomplishment; but alas I have now succumbed.

I am not able to eliminate this circumstance, nor was I able to prevent it even though I foresaw it and made attempts to reduce its impact or even minimize it; I am "under lock and key".

This will go on for some time still...but it will come to pass as well, until the next wave. So it is with my karma.

===============================

Ichigo, it is good that you are not experiencing any cold or fever (when you wrote), but because of the persistent stomach pains, along with nausea and headaches do you think that you just got a stomach virus?

I didn't had stomach pains, it was more a kind of sick feeling and a lot of headaches. Sometimes they come and go, or they just sit on me most of the time.

Yesterday it was the last day I had still a bit of nausea left not as much as 2 days ago, though I wanted to give my body some more rest anyway. It hurts skipping practice even if it's just for 1 day, but maybe it's for the best.

It was probably some kind of virus, there were many people who had fever and cold where I work so it's more likely it's because of that.. but it could have been much worse, so I am thankful that it's not more than that.

Now I am feeling much better, so I will resume Breath Infusion again.

I always thought that Breath Infusion can prevent cold flu because of the removal of toxins and such of the body, but I guess it makes sense that you can also get them when you inhale such amount of air into the body.

Generally I was just a little bit paranoid if Breath Infusion can damage/affect the lungs, abdomen or any other part to have got that result.. but it has been more than 1 month that I am doing Breath Infusion without any problems so it seems very unlikely.

EDIT: 2 Days that I didn't do Breath Infusion I did Spinal Breathing (but probably not effective if you don't keep up with it every day)

Ichigo,

It is highly unlikely that breath infusion will damage the lungs. The muscle that is involved is the diaphragm. Do an internet search on diaphragm and study how it operates to get some understanding of what is happen physically during breath infusion.

The other thing is that the lungs operate on the principle of accepting and rejecting fresh air and releasing or retaining used air. You may breathe in the air but that does not mean that the lungs are accepting all of it. It may not be. If you have tuberculosis even if they put you in a chamber with the best machine filtered air, still your lungs will reject the air and not accept it even though it is available. So the lungs have a mind of their own.

By doing the infusion though this situation of the lungs may be influenced to where the lung cells change their attitude and absorb more air than they usually do.

Breath infusion does remove chemical gaseous pollution but may not release bacteria or virus. Those micro entities remain in the body and are not necessarily released. What are released physically by breath are mostly chemicals. If someone has TB, then if you are near to that person you can contact it because their lungs will release spores of it but it is not that it is releasing those spores and freeing the TB patient.

No, it only releases excess spores and spores which cannot find residency in the body of the patient because that body is filled with TB spores already.

The release of chemical toxins in a gaseous form through infusion does not necessarily help with getting rid of the bad viruses, bacteria and the like. For that matter the bacteria, some of them may like the fresh air just as well.

Criminals like money and so do law-abiding citizens. Criminals like food, they like sunny days and so on. Bad people or criminals like good things too.

So do not form any assumptions without keeping this in mind.

Yoga was possible this AM. My body was hard to stretch, and breathing was challenged.

Meditation was short as well as unfocused.

Comment: As we approached Manhattan on a family trip over the weekend, I thought that the car ahead of me in the tunnel was emitting, some harsh chemically charged air. But as we drove and walked around I could distinctly feel a discomfort breathing the air in Manhattan. When we left later at night I was not uncomfortable any more, this happened on our way back to Maryland driving through another gentrified city as well. I lived in NY City for years, but I guess my ridding of toxins from my body made me more sensitive to detecting their presence in my system.
