During the day, a person makes up to 20 thousand breaths, this happens naturally and unconsciously.
But not everyone knows that with the help of proper breathing, you can significantly improve your health.
Most people breathe superficially, or "vertically", while deep, or "horizontally", breathing is practiced only by those who specifically focus on this process in yoga classes or breathing practices.
How can I improve my health with proper breathing?
The habit of chest breathing does not saturate the lungs with oxygen, leads to a weakening of the diaphragm muscles and poor posture: if the abdominal area is not included in the breathing process, the pelvis and ribs begin to "tighten" with age, and the stomach — to fall inside.
Breathing with the diaphragm allows you to increase the volume of air inhaled by the lungs and improve the saturation of the body's cells with oxygen.
This normalizes the body's work at all levels: it stabilizes blood pressure, heart function, and relieves feelings of anxiety and nervousness.
