There's many techniques of course, but it is interesting to note a contrast of method in the theory of "breathing" between two examples.
One has the person sitting and meditating, breathing in old positivity and exhaling new negativity. The other, has the opposite, where the subject sits and breathes in old negativity and exhales new positivity.
Often it seems the first place an initiate stops is at the first example, and many just become consumers of positivity, never thinking about transmuting a bit back the other way. Is it a sign of their fears and fragility? The clutch of the survivor to the saviour where the rescue team gets clawed and clambered over?
This is why I do not take too much notice of so called sages and priests, their selfish fears can consume you if you get too close without awareness of their possible plight.
