Great post from the Mountain View Dahn Yoga Site about Human Technology. Breathing makes a happy brain!

Everybody lives a breath of fresh air.
Human Technology by Ilchi Lee

summary p.46

“Everybody lives a breath of fresh air.
When we let the fresh air in our body, we feel awake, refreshed and energized.
Actually this is all about breathing?
breathing in fresh air and releasing the toxins.

Breathing is mechanical.
It occurs automatically.
You don’t have to think about breathing.
It happens by itself.
It is what our body does.
Exactly in the same fashion, thinking is also mechanical.
Thinking occurs automatically.
You don’t have to think about thinking.
It is a routine of the brain.
It is what the brain does.
Moreover, just like you can control your respiration, you are able to conrol how the brain thinks?
although both are somethng that very few people do.”

I’m thinking how important the brain is… we need to know how to breathe right.
