"When you breathe, you inspire. When you do not breathe, you expire." - Quote from an 11-year-old's science examJohn Grinder, co-creator of NLP talks about the link between respiration, physiology, internal state and high performance. He calls this 'the chain of excellence'. I recently read a book by Osho, the wonderfully non-PC mystic and guru. In the book, Osho instructed the reader to pay attention to their breathing rate when they were sad, and notice the timing of the in-breath and out-breath. He explained that next time they were happy, they could re-induce the sad state by merely repeating the breathing pattern. Fortunately, he added, it works the other way round too!Follow some or all of these exercises;Firstly; When you are experiencing a powerful, positive state, allow yourself to become aware of your breathing rate. Pay particular attention to the timing and rhythm of your in-breath and out-breath.Secondly; Next time you are in a neutral or negative state, start breathing at the rate and rhythm from exercise one, and within a minute or so, the positive state should begin to return.Many gurus advise people to do breathing exercises regularly. I know Tony Robbins does in his marvellous book "Unlimited Power" ... [more...]

I remember when I was 15 and I first saw a brochure for Anthony Robbins. I knew I had to be at that seminar.And after begging and pleading with my parents, and paying for the ticket, I ended up making my way there. Obviously, Mr. Robbins is a great motivator. And probably one of the best people I have ever seen on stage.And I have no doubt that much of what I learnt that weekend in Darling Harbour has rubbed off on me ever since.After all, we all need a little motivation in life, don't we? And you can't expect to get it from the news.I just flicked over to the local news reviews today and I can see articles about families having to choose between heating or eating... someone starving to death in hospital...and how deer hunters are leaving the children deer for dead.And while it might be true, it's certainly not focusing on the positive things happening in the world, is it?But you can.No matter what business you are in, you can decide to spread good news rather than bad news. Think about it. It doesn't matter if you are a chiropractor, a mechanic, a carpet distributor, a ... [more...]
