| Pick a quiet place with lots of fresh air. Calm your mind and balance your energy. Your head should be erect, feet spread apart to shoulder width, legs slightly bent. Your hands are placed in front of your lower abdomen, close to your belly. Your eyes are looking downward as your watch with your consciousness. Gather your thoughts, very naturally keeping your intention at your elixir field. With each thought, unceasingly hold your intention there. Now, with your mouth closed, inhale through your nose, inhaling deeply, sending energy to your abdomen, making your belly bulge. You should not use any intentional effort, just allow it to be natural. Then withdraw your belly to press out all the stale air. As your belly withdraws, it hollows inward. Then inhale again as above for a total of ten breaths. | Pick a quiet place with lots of fresh air. Calm your mind and balance your energy.
