Meditation: LA936 980609 Four Stroke Breath to Build Intuition
Place your hands together in Prayer Mudra. Keep the Jupiter (index) fingers extended as you interlock the other fingers to clasp your two hands together. Cross the thumbs. Place the mudra a little below your nose where you can look at the tips of your Jupiter fingers through the one-tenth opening of your eyes.
The eyes are nine-tenths closed.
Inhale in four powerful strokes through the ‘O’ mouth (I stroke per second = 4 second inhale) and exhale in one powerful stroke through the nose (I second).
Continue for 16 minutes.
To end, sit straight, inhale, hold your breath 20 seconds. and stretch your arms out to your sides. Palms facing upward. That will give you power to balance your central spinal column. Exhale. Inhale deep, hold your breath 20 seconds, and stretch your arms horizon-tally and stretch your spine vertically. Make a T-square. Exhale. Inhale deep, hold your breath 20 seconds, and open up your fingers, making them like steel. Squeeze your entire energy and bring it into your arms. Exhale and relax.
