Lung Health Test

Your breath is a direct indicator to your state of health. For a spiritual aspirant, breath assumes even graver significance, for it is said to be the doorway between this world and the journey beyond. Testing the ability of your lungs periodically helps you assess the degree of mastery over breath.
