骨呼吸｜让你的呼吸到达骨头

"Remember to breathe.It is,after all,the secret of life."~Gregory Maguire

"记得深呼吸。毕竟，这是生命的秘密。"~格雷戈里·马奎尔

Prana or life force is the vital energy that keeps the body alive,and channeling that energy to the different organs in our body is equally important to maintain a state of good health.

生命能量是维持身体活力的重要能量，将这种能量引导到我们身体的不同器官对于保持健康状态同样重要。

Our bones are living organs too that provide structure for our body,protect all our important organs and help us nourish our entire body by producing red and white blood cells.

我们的骨骼也是活的器官，它们为我们的身体提供结构，保护我们所有的重要器官，并通过产生红细胞和白细胞帮助我们滋养我们的整个身体。

An ancient Taoist practice that uses this life force to restore health and give strength to the bones,is'Bone Breathing'.The practice uses breathing and visualization to bring more healing Qi into the bones and joints.

一个古老的道教实践，使用这种生命力量恢复健康和力量的骨头，是"骨呼吸"。这种练习利用呼吸和视觉化来使更多的气进入骨骼和关节。

Mantak Chia,a taoist master known for his teaching Taoist practices under the names of Healing Tao,Tao Yoga,Universal Healing Tao System and Chi Kung,in his book,Iron Shirt Kung I,spoke about the potentiality of Bone breathing,"Bone Breathing or bone compression is the method of"Cleansing the Marrow",or cleaning out fat in the bone marrow so that you can direct and absorb the creative(sexual)energy into the bone to help regrow the bone marrow."

曼塔克·贾(Mantak Chia)是一位道教大师，他以疗道、道瑜伽、万能疗道系统和气功的名字教授道教，在他的《铁衫宫一》(Iron Shirt Kung i)一书中谈到了骨呼吸的潜力，"骨呼吸或骨压是净化骨髓的方法，也就是清除骨髓中的脂肪，这样你就可以将创造性(性)能量引导和吸收到骨髓中，帮助骨髓再生。"

He also mentioned that bones are highly porous and are always breathing;just like a sponge sucks water,bones suck in oxygen,nutrition and blood.

他还提到，骨骼具有高度多孔性，而且总是在呼吸;就像海绵吸水一样，骨骼吸收氧气、营养和血液。

A medical study in The American Journal of Physiology suggests that the oxygen supply to our bones directly affects bone formation and bone physiology.

美国生理学杂志的一项医学研究表明，我们骨骼的氧气供应直接影响骨骼的形成和骨骼的生理机能。

The importance of Chi or Prana

气或能量的重要性

The whole concept of this ancient practice revolves around the presence of Chi in our environment.Chia said,"Taoists describe the world as an interaction of positively and negatively charge electromagnetic energies.

这个古老实践的整个概念围绕着气在我们的环境中的存在。Chia 说，"道家将世界描述为正负电磁能量的相互作用。

'Chi'is an overall term used for these energies,which comprises the ultimate nourishment derived from food,air,sun and stars.Chi is also generated in our bodies by the organs and glands and extends around us as a part of our emanation."

"气"是对这些能量的总称，它包括来自食物、空气、太阳和星星的终极营养。气也是由我们的器官和腺体在我们的身体中产生的，并作为我们散发的一部分延伸到我们周围。"

What we do not understand is the real essence of breathing lies in a full breath;a breath that refreshes,revitalizes and rejuvenates us.

我们不明白的是，呼吸的真正本质在于一次完整的呼吸，一次清新、振兴和重新焕发活力的呼吸。

Healthy breathing makes for healthy bones.All the bodily systems are affected by the quality of our breath and bones are no different.Our bone marrow,situated on the corner of the spongy bones with yellow fat in the middle known as medullary cavity,produces red and white blood cells,that are vital for our existence.

健康的呼吸有助于骨骼健康。所有的身体系统都受到我们呼吸和骨骼质量的影响。我们的骨髓位于中间有黄色脂肪的海绵状骨骼的一角，被称为髓腔，产生红细胞和白细胞，这对我们的生存至关重要。

When we breathe fully,our porous bones sucks in oxygen,transfers it to the red marrow to produce cells and also cleanses the fat in the middle to create space for positivity.

当我们充分呼吸时，我们的多孔骨骼会吸入氧气，将氧气转移到红骨髓中产生细胞，同时清理中间的脂肪，为积极性创造空间。

Technique of Bone breathing

骨呼吸技术

There are multiple modifications and variations used in Bone Breathing.Starting with the simplest one,first and foremost requirement is the belief in the theory.Now,imagine that your surrounding is brimming with charged energy.This vital energy that surrounds you is slightly thicker in comparison to the normal air.

有多种修改和变化用于骨呼吸。从最简单的要求开始，首先也是最重要的要求就是相信理论。现在，想象你周围充满了带电的能量。与正常空气相比，你周围的这种重要能量要稍微厚一些。

Sit comfortably on a chair and place your hands on your lap.Fingers are stretched and open,and the palms are open and relaxed.Advanced practitioner often uses the'embrace the tree'posture as demonstrated by Mantak Chia but for start even sitting comfortably will reap similar benefits.

Start by breathing deeply and rhythmically in slow motion,trying to inhale and exhale as deeply as possible.The ratio of the breath remains 1:2(Inhale:Exhale).After a few breaths,bring your attention to the tip of the index finger of the left hand.Relax the wrist,hand and fingers.As you inhale,feel the energy transferring from the tip of the finger to the base of the finger and as you exhale from the nose,feel all the negative energy leave from your finger,gradually condensing in your bone.

舒服地坐在椅子上，把手放在大腿上。手指伸展张开，手掌张开放松。高级实践者经常使用 Mantak Chia 展示的拥抱树的姿势，但是即使是舒服地坐着也会收到类似的效果。开始时以慢动作有节奏地深呼吸，试着尽可能深地吸气和呼气。呼吸的比例保持在1:2(吸气:呼气)。呼吸几次后，注意力集中在左手食指尖上。放松手腕、手和手指。当你吸气时，感觉能量从手指尖转移到手指根部，当你从鼻子呼气时，感觉所有的负能量从你的手指离开，逐渐凝结在你的骨头里。

As you repeat a few times,experience a sense of warmth/numbing/heaviness/tingling in your left hand's index finger.Now,compare the same with the right hand's index finger,which is yet untouched.This comparison will enable you to recognize the effect of bone breathing.

当你重复几次的时候，左手食指会有一种温暖/麻木/沉重/刺痛的感觉。现在，让我们来比较一下右手的食指，它还没有被动过。这种比较将使你能够认识到骨骼呼吸的影响。

Now,bring the same awareness in all the other fingers of the left hand,either one by one or at the same time,sucking the vital energy in the body.(This need not be done individually every time you practice.This is intended only to help you to isolate the feeling of energy by concentrating on one small area at a time.)

现在，把同样的意识带到左手所有的其他手指上，无论是一个接一个的，还是同时，吸取身体中的生命能量。(不需要每次练习都单独进行。这样做的目的只是为了帮助你一次专注于一个小区域来隔离能量的感觉。)

Eventually all fingers will be used to draw energy simultaneously in both hands.Now,progress further to the forearm,upper arm and shoulders,visualizing your bones as a big sponge consuming in the energy(the beginning stages require more visualization).

最终，所有的手指都将同时用于吸取双手的能量。现在，进一步向前臂、上臂和肩膀移动，将你的骨头想象成一块消耗能量的大海绵(开始阶段需要更多的想象)。

Now,reproduce the same feeling in your right hand,gradually progressing from the fingers to the wrists to the forearms,so on and so forth.Feel the sensation of warmth/numbing/heaviness/tingling spreading in both your arms.

现在，在你的右手中再现同样的感觉，逐渐从手指到手腕再到前臂，如此循环下去。感觉温暖/麻木/沉重/刺痛的感觉在你的双臂中蔓延。

The cycle would go from the arms to the scapulae,collarbone,sternum and ribs.The sensation of warmth/numbing/heaviness/tingling might differ from one area to another,depending on the structure of the bone in the specific area.

循环将从手臂到肩胛骨，锁骨，胸骨和肋骨。温暖/麻木/沉重/刺痛的感觉可能因特定区域骨骼结构的不同而不同。

Now,bring the focus to the feet and toes.It is best to remove the shoes and any tight clothing and guide your awareness up the toes,either singly or together up to the ankle.Breathe in from the toes of the left leg first and then the right leg or both the legs together depending on your capabilities.Feel the breath enter through all your bones,hold it for a while and then let the energy flow out.

现在，把焦点放在脚和脚趾上。最好脱掉鞋子和任何紧身衣物，引导你的意识从脚趾开始，不管是单个的还是一起到脚踝。先从左腿的脚趾吸气，然后是右腿，或者两条腿一起吸气，这取决于你的能力。感觉呼吸通过你所有的骨骼进入，保持一会儿，然后让能量流出。

Gradually move up from the feet to the ankle,calves,knee,thighbones,pelvis,coccyx and sacrum,up to C7 vertebra in the spinal column.The movement of the breath is depicted with arrows,in the image above.(Do not pull your feet up with the breath.Let them remain flat on the floor.)

逐渐地从脚向上移动到脚踝、小腿、膝盖、大腿骨、骨盆、尾骨和骶骨，直到脊柱中的 C7椎骨。在上面的图像中，用箭头描绘了呼吸的运动。(不要随着呼吸把脚抬起来。让他们平躺在地板上。)

Now,you will have to breathe simultaneously both from legs and hands,merging the energies at C-7 vertebrae in the spinal column and from there to the skull covering the entire body.Keep breathing for some time,with minimum of nine breaths of whole body breathing.And as you conclude bring all the energy to the navel center and close it.

现在，你必须同时从腿部和手部呼吸，合并脊柱中 C-7椎骨的能量，从那里到覆盖整个身体的颅骨。保持呼吸一段时间，至少进行九次全身呼吸。当你得出结论时，把所有的能量带到肚脐中心并关闭它。

If more specific knowledge of the bones is desired then it is advisable to work with a anatomical chart of the skeleton to guide the energy with more precision.

如果需要更具体的骨骼知识，那么建议使用骨骼的解剖图来更精确地引导能量。

Benefits of Bone Breathing

骨骼呼吸的好处

Bone breathing helps the practitioner escape the modern day problems of bone mass deficiency,osteoporosis,stress management,lack of energy,low immune system,etc.By circulating the chi to the innermost parts of the body,energy created by Bone breathing,merges with the sexual energy.

骨呼吸帮助医生逃避现代的问题，骨量不足，骨质疏松症，压力管理，缺乏能量，免疫系统低等。通过将气循环到身体最深处，骨骼呼吸所产生的能量，与性能量合并。

One of the students of Chia,a middle-aged woman,was heavily losing bone mass, but with the practice of bone breathing for 3 hours regularly within six months regained the lost mass by 10%and in five years 100%.

中年妇女 Chia 的一名学生骨量严重减少，但通过6个月内定期3小时的骨呼吸练习，减少的骨量恢复了10%，5年后恢复了100%。

Increasing the production of red blood cells and white blood cells,the process improves the flow of blood,secretion of nutrients,enhance sexual energy,boosts the immune system and stronger bones with increased bone density.

增加红细胞和白细胞的产量，这个过程改善血液流动，营养分泌，增强性能量，增强免疫系统和骨骼强度，增加骨密度。

The biggest advantage remains,that one can practice this technique,anywhere and anytime.It is a very powerful technique that allows you to pull in energy into one specific area and feel supercharged in that area.It also helps to be more connected and in tune with the flow of energy in our body.

最大的优点仍然是，人们可以随时随地练习这种技巧。这是一个非常强大的技术，可以让你把能量吸入到一个特定的区域，并且感觉在那个区域充满活力。它也有助于更多的连接，并与我们身体的能量流协调。
