Background
I, Guru Sanju, speak here about one of the most important yet most neglected structures in the human body: the diaphragm. Most people do not realize that their breathing, nervous system state, emotional regulation, pain levels, fatigue, and even their sense of safety in life are deeply connected to how the diaphragm is functioning. In this discourse, I explain why the diaphragm is not just a breathing muscle but a direct messenger between the body and the brain. When it moves freely, it signals safety. When it is held upward in freeze mode, it signals danger. I also connect this understanding to vagus nerve function, sunlight, walking, nature exposure, ego-based living, and the way modern sedentary life damages natural breathing patterns. This teaching is practical, embodied, and meant to make you experience the truth directly in your own body.
Why the Diaphragm Is the Most Important Organ in the Body
Why is the diaphragm the most important organ in the body? The reason is that it is a muscle, and it is one of the biggest muscles involved in your living process. You need to know that it is required for your breathing.
When you sit, stand, or do any activity, check where your diaphragm is. In freeze mode, it is pulled upward and it stays there. Whenever you do any activity, you need to keep checking whether your diaphragm is moving or not, all the time.
The reason is simple: it gives a signal to the brain that all is well.
Check It Thousands of Times a Day
Check thousands of times every day whether it is in a stuck, held position or whether it is moving freely. When you check and find that it is moving freely, it means it is giving the brain a signal through the vagus nerve that all is well.
This is why the diaphragm is not a small matter. It is central to your lived experience of safety.
Nature Helps the Diaphragm Move
I am in the mountains today, and look at the greenery. See how the mountain is showing its beauty. Also the sunlight — the sun is shining brightly today, and I am enjoying the sunlight.
Sunlight removes depression. Sunlight removes negativity. So make sure that you take sunlight every day — twenty minutes, thirty minutes, forty minutes — in a walking position. Keep walking.
When you keep walking, your diaphragm starts moving.
The Ego Holds the Body
If you are communicating with the world, most of us are communicating through the ego. Ego is personality. Ego is identity. Ego does not want to lose the identity of who you think you are.
You try to show who you are not. By that I mean the things which are not real. When things are not real, you automatically know that you need to go into fight-and-flight mode. Fight-and-flight mode is what keeps you stuck in life, in the world. And I would also say freeze mode.
Life Is Here and Now
Can you see the cattle here? A beautiful day today. Beautiful sunlight. I am deliberately showing all these things to you because life is here and now.
There is celebration in Nepal. You can see the dog, happy and sitting there. While recording all this, my purpose is to show you that the universe takes care of the balance of everything.
Can you listen to the songs in the background? These are Nepali songs. Today is Nepali New Year, and people are celebrating. It is a beautiful environment today.
The Diaphragm Is Directly Connected to Bioenergy
The diaphragm is directly connected to your bioenergy, prana, oxygen, and life force. I would say 70 to 80 percent of people — maybe even 90 percent — hold the diaphragm when they are concentrating on something.
You need to observe this carefully. Most people hold the breath because holding the breath is their nervous system’s response to life. It senses danger and goes into freeze mode. The hold is freeze mode.
And when you hold the diaphragm, you are reinforcing that danger pattern.
The Diaphragm Should Move Freely
The diaphragm should move freely. In my coming teachings I may demonstrate this more clearly, but for now, you take care of the diaphragm first.
The vagus nerve is connected to the diaphragm. The diaphragm also teaches you how to live life. The diaphragm is a muscle, and if you keep it moving, I can guarantee that most of your pain and fatigue will begin to vanish.
The direct reason is that you are entering flow mode.
Movement Is the Doorway
If you keep moving, things change. This is why walking is so important. This is why natural movement is so important. When you move, the diaphragm moves. When the diaphragm moves, the body receives a safety signal. When the body receives that signal, the brain changes its response.
That is why so many people with sedentary life, corporate work, and long hours of sitting become trapped in pain, fatigue, mental tension, and nervous system dysregulation. They are sitting in one place and holding the diaphragm all day.
This Teaching Is Experiential
You can take my consultation, and through my energy work and my guidance, you will come to know why the diaphragm is important experientially. My whole aim is to make my teachings experiential to you here and now. Then you are free.
I do not want this to remain theory for you. I want you to feel it directly in your own body.
My Technique for Corporate and Sedentary Life
My technique is particularly important for those who are working in corporate life, those who have a sedentary lifestyle, those who are sitting in one place and doing the same activity for long hours.
See the beautiful sky today. See the dog sleeping. This particular teaching is completely based on the diaphragm. I teach nervous system reset, brain and nervous system reset, through my energy work.
A Breath That Can Change Everything
I will teach you one particular breathing process that can take you out of fibromyalgia, that can take you out of pain and freeze mode, that can take you out of your brain and nervous system issues for good.
I will teach you, and you can use it any time you are going through a lot in your life.
What the Diaphragm Really Means
The diaphragm is not just a breathing muscle. It is a living indicator of your state. It tells you whether you are in fear or in flow, in contraction or in expansion, in freeze or in aliveness.
If it is moving, life is moving. If it is held, life is being held.
That is why I say: check it again and again and again. Let it become one of your deepest daily observations.
Closing
So understand this clearly: your diaphragm is one of the greatest safety signals in the body. It is tied to the vagus nerve, tied to your breath, tied to your nervous system, tied to your pain patterns, and tied to your capacity to live freely.
Take sunlight. Walk daily. Observe your diaphragm. Do not hold your breath in life. Let the body move. Let the diaphragm move. Let life move.
That is all for now.
Thank you. Bye-bye.
