# 1 breathing exercise
The modern, industrialized person is angry. Not angry in the sense that he is in a negative emotional state, no, his body is acidic. The main reason for this
is poor nutrition and it is mainly sweets that lead to increased acid formation. Over-acidification of the body often manifests itself in symptoms such
as persistent fatigue and a lack of concentration. You see, your brain is also affected. Another cause of acidification in the body can be incorrect
breathing technique. Many people are chronically tense and therefore breathe in more oxygen than they remove when they breathe out. The following
exercise shows you how to learn again to consciously exhale more.
Do the following exercise!
Learn to breathe consciously! Find a quiet place where you can do the exercise undisturbed. You can sit or lie down. Now breathe in deeply and slowly and slowly
out again. Exhaling should take about twice as long as inhaling, in total you should inhale and exhale between 4 and 6 times per minute. You do this exercise
for at least 5 minutes. When you feel like you are relaxed, you can stop.
You can always do this exercise before you start studying or when you are stressed.

# 3 breathing exercise
Do the following exercise!
Make sure that nobody is bothering you. The time for this meditation practice is all yours. Get into a comfortable sitting position. Take a few deep breaths
in and out without influencing or controlling your breath. Breathe through your nose only. Focus entirely on your breath, letting it come and go.
Now feel how the air flows into your nose and how your abdominal wall rises and falls evenly.
Give your full attention to the coming and going of your breath. Try to describe your breath. Is it gentle and tender, flowing or thrusting, feel
a resistance when breathing in or out, feeling a pleasant, an uncomfortable or no feeling at all.
Because most people find it difficult to concentrate fully on their breath at the beginning. If your mind wanders, don't blame yourself, just
get back to your breath.
Do the exercise until you feel relaxed. With one it is faster, with the other it takes longer. If you feel that the exercise is not doing you any good,
don't give up, but practice it three to four times a week. 10 to 15 minutes a day are sufficient.
