Did you know the body has no 
monitoring mechanism for oxygen? 

It knows it is vital for its survival 
and cells simply die without it.  

But in the base of your brain there 
is a highly sensitive monitoring 
mechanism for your level of carbon 
dioxide as it knows this gas must be 
maintained at an optimum level for 
oxygenation of cells.  

If this level drops it will start to change 
your breathing rhythms itself to try and raise it.

Here is a sample from the special guide.
  
By doing this exercise you will create a relaxation
response throughout your body.
	•	Sit in an upright posture, preferably in which  your back feels supported.
	•	Ensure you have a clock near you that you can  hear ticking.
	•	Breathe out and then breathe in for the count  of four seconds.
	•	Immediately begin to breathe out and continue  breathing out for the count of 6 seconds.
	•	See if you can hold your breath out for the count of 2 seconds.
Continue this for about two weeks and then 
increase the exhalation by two - so that you are 
breathing our for eight seconds.  

Continue this practice for a few more weeks, 
doing it at least twice daily for two minutes at a time.  

Then check your breathing one morning and you'll 
find the exhalation has begun to increase by just one 
or two counts - you will know you are on your way 
to full breathing and your body is drinking up that oxygen.
