In his book Emotions — Freedom from Anger, Jealousy and Fear, the renowned Indian spiritual leader Osho wrote: “ Every person has a pile of garbage in their belly because it is the only place the body has in which to repress emotions . These repressed feelings prevent you from breathing [properly], allowing you to breathe only shallowly.
印度知名靈性大師奧修也在《情緒》一書中談及呼吸：「每個人都在胃裡裝了一大堆垃圾，因為那是身體唯一能讓你壓抑情緒的空間，… 由於這些壓抑，你不會呼吸，你只能淺淺的呼吸。
