Many people who are familiar with the Law of Attraction have heard of it through a short informational film called The Secret, which was later turned into a book. Both benefited from endorsement by high profile celebrities. In sum, the Law of Attraction states that the more you think about something, consciously or otherwise, the more likely it is to come true. You "attract" specific outcomes with the power of your mental and emotional focus, whether or not these are desirable outcomes. Therefore, knowing exactly what you want and concentrating on that particular thing is likely to bring about a desirable outcome. Worrying constantly about something you fear will work like a self-fulfilling prophecy, demonstrating the dark side of this Law.
At first glance, the Law of Attraction seems rather abstract-firstly, in the sense of being highly theoretical and difficult to prove, and secondly, in the sense of being an almost entirely mental process, dissociated from concrete action. The first meaning is difficult to argue for or against. It is much easier to discuss the second idea, that of the Law of Attraction being entirely a matter of the mind.
Many people who spend a great deal of time meditating or praying know that mental or spiritual focus has a lot to do with the body. We often think of prayer or meditation as trying to be "free" of the body, but paradoxically, the body can help the mind and soul to reach higher levels. This is why prayers are often done in special positions. Roman Catholics kneel, and Sufi dervishes do their whirling dances.
This is where transformational breathing comes in. Quite obviously, concentration plays a big part in the Law of Attraction. Mental focus can be useful so that you can keep thinking about what you want to have or achieve, instead of getting distracted by your problems. After all, according to the Law of Attraction, you ought to get the best results if you avoid focusing on pessimistic thoughts. Studies demonstrate a relationship between breathing and the ability to concentrate. Modern science supports what mystics have known for centuries. This should not be a surprise. The brain requires a great deal of oxygen, after all. In fact, it uses more oxygen than any organ in the body.
Routines (such as yogic breathing exercises) that optimize your breathing will be great for your concentration. You might be rather surprised at the results, in fact. Many people assume that they know how to breathe properly. (Not without reason. The fact that they are still alive means they can't be doing it completely wrong.) Still, it is possible to go through your life thinking you are breathing correctly, when your cells are actually getting less oxygen than they should, and are also having to deal with carbon dioxide that has built up instead of being expelled properly. If you are one of these people, breathing exercises are not just calming, they can also be called transformational breathing, if they can help you change the direction of your life by helping you get the best out of the Law of Attraction.
