Metaphorically, fire is seen as passion, drive, motivation, even our metabolism. We work to burn calories, seek to spark attention, and in relationship, fan the flames of love. To fuel a fire you need oxygen.
Oxygen, by mass, is the most abundant element in the body. Inhaling, we supply our body with fuel that creates an aerobic environment. Cells are able to perform metabolic processes like burning glucose, and oxygen provides energy and strengthens the body's immune system. Through our lungs, oxygen is transferred to the bloodstream and transported throughout the body. Exhaling, we release waste and gases our body doesn't need, such as carbon dioxide.
Those managing chronic conditions may have problems breathing. Sleep apnea, mouth breathing, COPD, asthma, and other illnesses deplete energy and can make small tasks feel like a struggle. Try these breathing exercises to strengthen your lungs and fuel your fire.
Be Well!
