Functional Breathing in Key of D
According to the American Lung Association, we begin breathing less efficiently at around the age of 35. Some hospitals and clinics around the country are using diatonic harmonicas (harps) to improve lung function and sustain healthy breathing. They recommend harmonica practice for patients with COPD, PTSD, and related issues. Think of it as pulmonary gymnastics. More importantly, it transates into music, one the ultimate functional healing gifts of Nature. This method is called Harp Optimized Pulmnary Education (HOPE). Begin by studying the clips in the viamilitaris HOPE playlist, and start collecting your training tools. Be patient. The music will emerge from within you in time.
