Vadim Zeland Apocryphal Transurfi ng

The author prefers to stay in the shade, and just a few facts from his biography are known: in his youth Vadim Zeland studied quantum physics and computer technologies. He did not invent the teachings of Transur½ ng, but he calls himself a transmitter of the knowledge. He created Transur½ ng training center.

Transurfi ng is your new system of environment perception. The reality surrounding us is multilayered. You can choose, create and control your own reality. The new reality surrounding us is far from being human friendly and natural. We are no longer free and independent human beings, but rather encrypted elements of the matrix. To make your decisive move from the technogenic system of the matrix you should start from self-ecology, healthy eating and gaining physical power and strength. These all will wake your mind up and set you free from the imposed living standards. You will be able to create your own reality.

Marina Korpan is the only Russian certi½ ed expert in breathing techniques BodyFlex and OxySize for weight loss and correction.

BodyFlex and Oxysize are methods based on aerobic diaphragmal breathing in combination with exercises to fl ex groups of muscles. How does BodyFlex work? When you stop breathing for eight to nine seconds, carbon dioxide accumulates in your body. Arteries expand and cells begin absorbing oxygen more effectively. It is this additional oxygen that helps fi ght excess weight, improves your health and restores your energy levels. How does Oxysize work? During the full cycle of diaphragmal breathing, you do not stop inhaling, and cells of your body get an increased amount of oxygen. This switches on the oxidizing mode that helps burn fats and expedites your metabolism.
