Think before you act unforced. As with all physical activities, application of the breathing and any related practices entails some degree of physical and mental risk. Be cognizant of your own capabilities and limits, both physical and mental, and act accordingly.

Adhere to the following precept at all times: NEVER CONDUCT BREATHWORK RELATED ACTIVITIES IN PLACES WHERE LOSING CONSCIOUSNESS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS (e.g. in water, whilst driving, etc.).

Observe and obey posted rules and warnings, and follow any instructions or directions given by the instructor(s). If you observe any unusual significant hazard during your presence or participation, remove yourself from participation and bring such to the attention of the nearest instructor immediately.

Take it easy – it is not a competition

The Breathing Method and associated exercises and techniques are not meant/intended to be performed in a competitive context. Go at your own pace and do not let your ego get in the way. Challenge yourself and show commitment, but don’t exceed personal limits in order to prove something to yourself or others. For most people, practicing the Method in a calm and consistent manner yields amazing results.
