Deep Breathing
In order to have good blood, we must breathe well. Full, deep
inspirations of pure air which fill the lungs with oxygen, purify the
blood. They impart to it a bright color, and send it, a life-giving
current, to every part of the body. A good respiration soothes the
nerves; it stimulates the appetite and renders digestion more perfect;
and it induces sound, refreshing sleep.—
