Do you have any experience with embryonic breathing? I'd be really interested in reading more about what you have to say on this topic.

FYI, an embryo is just a tiny lump of cells. It doesn't do any breathing until well into the foetus stage.

Similarly I've heard some yoga position described as "embryonic torsion", when it's obviously intended to refer to the foetal position :)

"Embryonic breathing" is a specific term badly translated from a Chinese technical jargon.

I'm sure you mean well in educating people about scientific facts, but we're not discussing anything in the scientific literature.

Well there's that, but I also prefer my spirituality funny side up.

Let's take it to PM -- either on Quora or on Twitter (@hosheng). I don't usually check Twitter, but I'll poke around the next couple days.
