When explaining in the detailed description how special deep breathing can be done during the practice of massage exercises Nos. 5, 7 and 13, it was with the particular intention that this should be done chiefly in instances where one or two of these exercises are practiced separately and when the performer has only a few minutes to spare. However, even when all the massage exercises are practiced together, Nos. 5, 7 and 13 may also be performed in that way, but in that case only natural breathing and no special deep breathing exercises should be done at the intervals. On the whole, practice of a deep breathing exercise at the intervals is more practical, although the one method is about as beneficial as the other. But to do special deep breathing during the practice of some of the exercises themselves, as well as at the intervals in the same performance would be out of proportion. HOW THE NUMBER OF EXERCISES FOR ONE PERFORMANCE CAN BEST BE DECREASED Elderly people, children and others whose memory is not of the best and who may, therefore, find it inconvenient to remember all the exercises in the beginning or later can shorten the number of exercises for one performance in the following ways: Eleven Massage Exercises Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14 and 14 A Nine Massage Exercises Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 12, 13 and 14 Seven Massage Exercises Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 13 and 14 Six Massage Exercises Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5, 9 and 14 Five Massage Exercises Nos. 1, 4, 7, 13 and 14 Of course, these groupings may be modified in any other order and number with benefit, but the ones here indicated are the best and most practical. The ideal manner, however, is to practice all the exercises together in the order mentioned. ANOTHER SYSTEM PRACTICING THE MOVEMENTS OF THE BODY WITHOUT THE MASSAGE The movements or exercises of the arms, legs and the body in the combined massage exercises may also be done without the massage. Thus, when dressed, the arms, legs and trunk may perform the same movements as when massaging, but without the hands touching the clothes. Done in this way, the hands should move at a distance of about two inches from the clothes and be firmly clenched while exercising, thus contracting and concentrating on the muscles of the arms and also as far as possible concentrating the mind on those other parts of the body put into play by an exercise. In this way another concentration system, similar if not better than the Indian exercises, is obtained. Of course, this is not nearly as efficient as when done without clothes and with the addition of the massage. It might be desirable to try them in that way at a time when exercise is needed, and there is no time, or convenience for the removal of clothes.
