Breathing for Peak Performance - Eric Franklin - Bog - Human Kinetics Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Breathing for Peak Performance - Eric Franklin - Bog - Human Kinetics Publishers - Plusbog.dk

Most people give little thought to how they breathe—but if they want to have more energy, be more alert, and improve their exercise and sport performance, they should, says renowned author, dancer, and movement educator Eric Franklin. “Breathing is essential to our survival, it is necessary for energy production, and it is something we do about 20,000 times a day,” says Franklin, who has taught at various universities and ballets and coached world champions and Cirque du Soleil artists in his Franklin Method. “We stand to benefit if we improve our breathing.” In Breathing for Peak Performance , you will learn how to improve your own breathing and the breathing of those you coach and work with. This concise, heavily illustrated text will help you do the following: • Learn to improve your breathing function to benefit your health and improve your sport performance and daily living • Understand the anatomy of breathing—all the muscles and joints involved and how they work together • Practice 35 breathing exercises to improve functional breathing technique and performance in dance, yoga, and Pilates • Study and train the vital muscle of breathing—the diaphragm—grasping how it interacts with the abdominal muscles and other muscles associated with breathing • Comprehend the function and movement of the rib cage as it pertains to breathing • Integrate all the elements involved in breathing, including the lungs and inner organs, for optimal breathing function “The ideas and exercises in this book are tried and tested over 30 years of teaching, and they have been used by dancers, yoga practitioners, Pilates instructors, actors, vocal coaches, singing coaches, physiotherapists, swimmers, runners, and many others,” says Franklin. “When you perform the exercises, you will feel more energetic, focused, and relaxed. You will also gain an understanding of how to integrate imagery into your breathing practice.” Franklin presents the exercises—many accompanied by full-color illustrations—through his famed Franklin Method, which combines movement, imagery, and touch. His method helps practitioners relearn, in this case, correct breathing procedure to maximize breathing function. “To improve your breathing or to coach someone who needs to improve, first you need that solid understanding of anatomy,” Franklin says. “And you need to understand the habits that can hinder efficient breathing—tension, poor posture, and negative thinking, among others.” Franklin presents a recommended daily practice at the end of the book, which is ideal for individuals, professionals, coaches, practitioners, and students of dance, yoga, and Pilates. His detailed description of the anatomy, his presentation of the exercises, and his ability to integrate this information and make it very practical through his Franklin Method make this text an important reference for those who are looking to reach their peak performance in sport and in life.

Breathing for Warriors - Belisa Vranich - Bog - St Martins Pr - Plusbog.dk

Breathing for Warriors - Belisa Vranich - Bog - St Martins Pr - Plusbog.dk

Dr. Belisa Vranich''s ground-breaking second book teaches the science, techniques, and benefits of breathing correctly and efficiently for warriors in all walks of life. People are less in touch with their bodies—and especially their breathing—than ever before. Ironically, athletes and others who pride themselves on taking care of their bodies actually put themselves at greater risk. Why? Because they’re asking their body to take on next-level demands, but failing at life’s most essential skill: efficient breathing. Proper breathing is the world’s most powerful biohack. Learning it will help you feel better, avoid injury, and perform at your very best (including in bed!). Champion gladiators, master martial artists, even spearfishers all had one thing in common: efficient breathing to achieve flawless execution. An elite few still understand: Navy SEALs who need to make the perfect shot, super-elite weightlifters who truly understand how to harness and channel their energy, free-divers who can spend seemingly impossible amounts of time underwater, and high-profile execs who keep calm before multi-billion-dollar presentations. You can learn their secrets. From the corporate athlete to the tactical ninja, Breathing for Warriors is a practical, science-forward book that focuses on everything related to breathing and performance—from muscles and workouts to an impenetrable inner game.

Breathing as a Tool for Self-Regulation and Self-Reflection - Paivi Lehtinen - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Breathing as a Tool for Self-Regulation and Self-Reflection - Paivi Lehtinen - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The book describes how to use breathing as a medium for self-regulation and self-reflection and how balanced breathing thus helps to promote mental and physical health and alleviate symptoms resulting from imbalanced breathing. The authors describe applications of psychophysical breathing therapy in many areas of life, developed by both themselves and other professionals trained by them. The approach of the book is based on the interactional aspects between mind and body. A person''s breathing style influences their relation both to themselves and to others - and vice versa, and thus mental and also physical health. A comprehensive theoretical description of the psychophysical regulation of breathing and the consequences of imbalanced breathing is complemented by material derived from the authors'' extensive clinical experience. Psychological orientations used by the writers include object relations theories, and psychodynamic, cognitive, brief and group therapy theories. As a new aspect the writers introduce how breathing patterns are learnt in early interaction. The writers also acknowledge how physical factors affect and interact with psychological factors in producing imbalanced breathing.

The Nature of Breathing - Jenny (jenny Beeken) Beeken - Bog - Polair Publishing - Plusbog.dk

The Nature of Breathing - Jenny (jenny Beeken) Beeken - Bog - Polair Publishing - Plusbog.dk

A healthy lifestyle means breathing well - something very few people succeed in doing. It's the new frontier for our health. To breathe well only means not to obstruct the natural processes, for we are born to breathe well! Breathing through the nose is now understood to be vital, along with a posture that allows good breathing. We just forget how to breathe, in the midst of our busy lives. the nature of breathing reminds us very simply of what we knew already. The yoga principle of pranayama is explored in detail, and yoga postures that assist in good breathing make this an excellent book for correcting our habits. In our post-pandemic world understanding the breath has a whole new relevance. The book also covers anatomy, chanting, and meditation or mindfulness. 'Jenny's teaching is simply superb: practical, inspiring, life-changing . and this book gives a wonderful insight into yoga and breathing. I wholeheartedly recommend it. Rose Elliot Author of EVERY BREATH YOU TAKE and proverbial vegetarian cookery writer

Phenomenological Ontology of Breathing - Petri Berndtson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Phenomenological Ontology of Breathing - Petri Berndtson - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

This book studies the phenomenological ontology of breathing. It investigates breathing and air as a question of phenomenological philosophy and looks at phenomenological questions concerning respiratory methodology, ontological experience of respiration, respiratory spirituality and respiratory embodiment. Drawing on the ideas of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Gaston Bachelard, Martin Heidegger, Edmund Husserl, Luce Irigaray and David Kleinberg-Levin, the book argues for the ontological primacy of breathing and develops a new principle of philosophy that the author calls “Silence of Breath, Abyss/Yawn of Air”. It asserts that breathing is not a thing- or person-oriented relation but perpetual communication with the immense elemental atmosphere of open and free air. This new phenomenological method of breathing offers readers a chance to begin to wonder, rethink, re-experience and reimagine all questions of life in an innovative and creative way as aerial and respiratory questions of life. Part of the Routledge Critical Perspectives on Breath and Breathing series, the book breaks new ground in phenomenology and phenomenological ontology by offering a decisive and insightful treatment of breath. It will be indispensable for students and researchers of philosophy, phenomenology and ontology. It will also be of special interest to Merleau-Ponty scholars as it investigates uncharted dimensions of Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy.

Breathing Aesthetics - Jean Thomas Tremblay - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

Breathing Aesthetics - Jean Thomas Tremblay - Bog - Duke University Press - Plusbog.dk

In Breathing Aesthetics Jean-Thomas Tremblay argues that difficult breathing indexes the uneven distribution of risk in a contemporary era marked by the increasing contamination, weaponization, and monetization of air. Tremblay shows how biopolitical and necropolitical forces tied to the continuation of extractive capitalism, imperialism, and structural racism are embodied and experienced through respiration. They identify responses to the crisis in breathing in aesthetic practices ranging from the film work of Cuban American artist Ana Mendieta to the disability diaries of Bob Flanagan, to the Black queer speculative fiction of Renee Gladman. In readings of these and other minoritarian works of experimental film, endurance performance, ecopoetics, and cinema-vérité, Tremblay contends that articulations of survival now depend on the management and dispersal of respiratory hazards. In so doing, they reveal how an aesthetic attention to breathing generates historically, culturally, and environmentally situated tactics and strategies for living under precarity.
