Review of The Diaphragm
Have you ever thought about the full scope of the diaphragm's input in our well being? This supportive muscular structure surprisingly plays a vital role in our existence. The Diaphragm by Rasheem Northington is a comprehensive book on the vital functions of the diaphragm.
The book is a moderate length of 56 pages. It details the diaphragm's relationship to other vital body parts. It logically explains how the diaphragm directly influences the workings of the brain, heart, kidney, lungs, lymph system, and even the aging process. In simple and concise words, it explains how we can get the diaphragm to work better for our good. Page 11 explains how we can train and strengthen the muscles of the diaphragm. This can be done even during passive activities. The concluding parts of the book show relevant metabolic pathways that concern the movement of vital materials aided by the diaphragm.
It is clear that Rasheem has done much research to put this book together. The presentation of facts is logical and comprehensive. I learned to view some common facts about the human body from a new perspective. For instance, the author's description of the role of the diaphragm and its contribution to the beneficial effects of sleep made much sense.
Inasmuch as this book deals with body anatomy and related terms, comprehensive information is presented in an easy-to-understand format. The presence of diagrams also aids learning. I love the fact that the author's analysis of the diaphragm's role in the process of aging is detailed. It helped me see the essence of following the author's method of training the diaphragm. This is my most favorite part of the book. Overall, this book has increased my awe for the intricate workings of the human body. It also shares a vital key for achieving optimal health.
I loved the fact that some of the author's ideas were drawn from Chinese origins. For instance, on page 30, the author explains how something called pre-heaven essence makes up each person’s basic constitutional makeup, strength, and vitality. A little bit of research revealed that the pre-heaven essence represents inherited genes.
I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars. I have no dislikes about it. It was quite informative, and the text was exceptionally well edited. It was enlightening to read about the detailed analysis of the diaphragm's functions. I would recommend this book to readers who are interested in learning a new and easy way of achieving improved health.
