Respiratory Disorders
The sages in our Indian country lived for longer periods of years than without medicines and pathological tests. They were totally dependent on nature for their treatments and natural medicines. According to WHO, a person is totally fit when he/she is physically, mentally, psychologically, spiritually, or socially doing the work in an appropriate capacity. As per the sages in ancient India, the ‘swasthya’ word when split into two as ‘swa’ means self and ‘sthya’ means to locate oneself. The 5 elements in the body are the cure for the problems inside our body. Also, it is necessary to remove morbid matters from the body to detoxify it.
Morbid means the toxicants that are deposited inside our body and are even not cleared and summed up into fats. The person’s weight increases and goes on increasing even after having a limited diet also.
To keep our bodies healthy there is an invisible energy force called a vital force that is present. It helps to detoxify the toxicants in our bodies. There are cells present in our body which has life present in them. The centre of the cell is called the nucleus. The group cells together form a tissue, and those tissues combine to become an organ and the organs build a whole-body system. The regeneration of the cell is a very helpful and magical thing in nature that cures the internal to external parts of the body. According to anatomy and physiology, our body is made up of many microscopic cells. The cells are called a unit of life because all the activities of life take place in each cell. There are many types of systems present in the human body such as the digestive system, blood circulatory system, lymphatic system, muscular system, reproductive system, endocrine system, excretory system, respiratory system, etc. If anyone organ in any of the systems is affected due to their less capability or performance, then it will surely damage other parts of the system and its organs. The cells in them are majorly affected.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM
Parts of the respiratory system include the mouth, nose, nasal cavity, epiglottis, larynx (voice box), pharynx (throat), trachea, bronchi and bronchioles and alveoli (air sacs).
Alveoli are a bunch of grapes-like structures that inhale and release air through the lungs. They work like pumps. And last but not least diaphragm. The main part of this system includes the lungs, blood vessels, and various muscles because of which the breathing takes place in our body.
Respiration has two processes inhaling and exhaling. When we take in oxygen from the mouth and nose, they travel through the windpipe to the bronchioles and then to the alveoli and reach various parts of the lungs. There is a thin tissue called a flap inside the larynx present at the edge of the tongue called epiglottis. Whenever we eat something, it works as a lid on our windpipe which stops the food to not enter in there. If keeping in mind the story from ancient times we heard that for the tortoise to live 100 years god blessed him with a limited number of breaths. He worked the breathing aspect on a 1:4:2 ratio and lived for 400 years. Hence, this process of breathing is called the ‘yogi kriti’ type of breathing exercise. Whenever we concentrate on the breathing thing the third eye chakra gets activated. It clears our minds and thoughts. The human body has 72864 nadi, the veins, through which the life force, Pran Shakti is flowing for the functioning of the Pinda, the body. Every cell takes a breath, then simultaneously our tissue and organs and from there to the systems.
