Deep Breathing

I was doing my Tai Chi tape today called Tai Chi For Seniors by Mark Johnson, Tai Chi Instructor and Chi Gung Healer, and he was talking about the importance of deep breathing. It is very beneficial to soothe our nervous systems. It calms our emotions and makes us feel more relaxed. Seniors in general have stopped doing deep breathing, but they should try to do deep, diaphragmatical breathing all the time, every day. It replenishes our blood supply with oxygen and feeds our body. Shallow breathing does not help us like deep breathing, but I wonder why most people do not do it. For your health and well-being . All the Tai Chi moves should be done with deep, diaphragmical breathing.
