5.0 out of 5 stars A 24/7 GUIDE TO LOVING LIFE
Wine lovers read books on wine.

Movie lovers read books on movies.

And sex lovers read books on, well, sex.

But who and what is a breath lover?
How do you become one? And why
on earth would you want to read a
book on breath in the first place?

Breathing.

An activity we do THOUSANDS of times
PER DAY ... often without a second...

1.0 out of 5 stars highhopes2012
Too slow. wanted to read more about breathing and it health benifits. All this book was about how to relax and smell the roses. I am relaxed by nature I want the bright eyes and supple skin that deep breathing brings also the new found energy it brings, if you want a book about falling asleep while reading a book this is for you.

This review is from: Breath Taking: 60 Breathing Techniques to Enhance Your Health and Joy of Living (Paperback)
Wine lovers read books on wine.

Movie lovers read books on movies.

And sex lovers read books on, well, sex.

But who and what is a breath lover?
How do you become one? And why
on earth would you want to read a
book on breath in the first place?

Breathing.

An activity we do THOUSANDS of times
PER DAY ... often without a second thought.

Breathing.

A gateway to deeper levels of sensual
enjoyment.

Breathing.

A key to clearer perceptions and intense
levels of arousal.

Breathing.

An invitation to be truly relaxed (perhaps
for the first time) in your own body.

Breathing is all these things. And more.
Learning how to tap into these things is
the subject of this easy-to-read, easy-to-
put-into-practice book.

Many of us have read a small library's
worth of self-enlightenment books over
the years. But one of the real beauties
of reading this book (Lorin Roche's third
in print) is that your life experience
becomes richer IMMEDIATELY.

Now.

This very moment.

Within days of picking up the book, walking
around and sniffing the air became fun.

Applying aftershave became fun.

Just watching my chest rise and fall became fun.

Eating, naturally, became super fun.

And now that I stop to think about it, wine
drinking became more fun.

Movie watching became more fun.

And sex? Well, what do you think?

One final note: please don't think that this
book -- and the dozens of simple suggestions
you'll find in it -- are simply about sniffing,
or smelling, or inhaling, or whatever.

At the heart of this book is an invitation.

An invitation to use breath as an entry into
deeper states of MEDITATION.

Whether you meditate formally for any given
period of time, or whether you want to transform
your waking hours into a living-breathing-
eating-sleeping extended period of meditation,
"Breath Taking" will take you there.
