IV. Reading Comprehension Although the link between breathing and physical states may be readily apparent, the connection between breathing and mental states, though not immediately obvious, is nevertheless irrefutable. It may be useful to visualize the mind-breath connection as a kite: the state of mind (feelings and emotions) is the kite and the breath is the string that controls the kite. If you exert a smooth, gentle, steady pull on the string, the kite will in all likelihood soar gracefully like a carefree bird on the wing. If, however, you tug at the string, the kite will pitch and toss, much like a boat on rough seas, as if desperate to maintain control. So it is with the breath: a slow, smooth, gentle breathing rhythm matches or brings about a calm emotional state, whereas fast, shallow, jerky irregular breathing reflects or produces a troubled psyche. Health workers in psychiatric hospitals have noted that most of their patients are shallow breathers: their breathing is largely confined to the chest and their inhaled air seldom reaches the deep recesses of the lungs where the exchange of gases takes place. This is to their disadvantage in terms of mental clarity. If you observe someone who is deeply depressed, for example, you will almost certainly see very little evidence of breathing. This respiratory constraint is frequently observed when people restrict their breathing during periods of great stress in order to cut off the flow of painful emotional sensations. In suppressing things too painful to remember, in order to render them powerless to hurt us, we also curtail healing, life-giving breath. The unpleasantness and pain of difficult emotions such as sadness, anger and resentment, and their impact on us, come largely from our holding them back and not letting them through. By directly experiencing such feelings and participating with them through breath, you can free yourself from the bonds of much of their negativity. If we learn and regularly practice unrestricted breathing, it can help us to release and eliminate from our mind various unpleasant feelings stored away. It can do so by facilitating the emergence of denied, repressed or suppressed feelings into the light of awareness, as a prelude to creatively channeling and regulating that emotional energy. That is, by identifying the negative emotions, feeling them and expressing them, we are much more likely to be able to move beyond them if we were to resist them and bury them inside. And working with breath can be one of the quickest ways to overcome resistance to the painful and otherwise difficult feelings.
