As laid down by Santosh Sachdeva, author of The Eight Spiritual Breaths Course Book
Course details:
The Eight Spiritual Breaths is a Course designed to help individuals access the unlimited potential within them. The Course combines instructions for eight breathing exercises along with their individual Affirmations and guidance for meditation. The students should be serious in their practice, in order to realise their full potential.
Important instructions:
- Before commencing with the Exercises the student is advised to read and study the Course Book thoroughly.
- The exercises have to be practiced gradually. Each exercise and its Affirmation has to be practiced for two weeks or more till you are comfortable with it, before adding the next one.
- The Breaths are done in sequence as they lock into each other. If a Breath is missed while practicing, then the student is advised to continue with the following Breaths. Do not go back to the missed Breath.
