The History of Breathwork Part 3 India, Tibet and Islamic Cultures - Teaching in the MidEast

Jim Morningstar, PhD, also shares a link to the playlists of many of his videos on breathwork and integrative psychology

Jim Morningstar, PhD, begins a series of classes in the MidEast on the history of breathwork. In Part 1 he begins with a guided meditation which envisions the healing breath's effect on our planet. He then shares the theory and specific breath and body practices developed over the millennia in China which still are highly useful for health and well being physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. He guides an exercise designed to help the flow of vital energy to all parts of the body for us all on a daily basis.

"All the particles in the world are in love and looking for lovers."

~ Rumi


Adamantine Particles

"Adamantine particles are the fundamental building blocks of physical existence-particularized energy potentials which activate, unify, and give form to infinity. As points, they are irreductable, indivisible, and generic; and their very existence establishes dimension. Between one point and another, there is dimension. Between a series of points, there is a pattern of dimension. Thus there is space. The dynamic of energy exists through rhythmic activation and repetition of these patterns. Matter is formulated as these patterns and rhythms become more complex and specialized.”


“The sharing of adamantine particles is the breath of life,” Jesus said. “There is an ongoing exchange of these particles throughout existence. They not only comprise of organic life, but also the planet, the wind, and every substance that is. Everything breathes for the whole of its duration. Inhaling and exhaling these particles brings vital balance and connections in life. To one who is attuned, an illness is clearly revealed through irregularities in the breath of life. In the presence of love a natural rebalance occurs. This is how the laying on of hands can help restore health to another. Such is the power of healing touch or even a simple hug.”


"Only the true heart can sense the vital flow and exchange of particle energy. This is why you are more intuitive in the areas of your greater devotion. When the Sacred Heart comes to life again and its fire glows within, you will begin to magnetize a fresh supply of adamantine particles from an infinitely abundant universe. There is no limit to the adamantine particles that can be drawn to you. These can be used for empowering your life, healing it, and lifting it to a much higher state of performance."
