Podcasts about Diaphragmatic breathing

*CORRECTION: At 18:59, we start talking about nasal "turbicles". We say this word a lot. We get excited, and even question if "turbicles" is the right word, before agreeing that it's the right word, and carrying on. Future editing Karinda realises we in fact meant to say "nasal turbinates" - not turbicles. Turbicles aren't a thing. You're cordially invited to laugh at our mistake. You can suss out what these look like and their function hereIN THIS EP:We dive deep into the practice of mouth taping and its impressive benefits for sleep quality and overall health. We go through our personal experiences with mouth taping, different types of tapes, and address common concerns and misconceptions (we get it, it seems odd at first, or scary at most!). Let's explore the link between nasal breathing, nitric oxide production, and improved oxygenation and recovery, and how mouth taping can aid in reducing snoring and sleep apnea. As always, you'll get a mix of science, personal anecdotes, tidbits of advice and a good ole laugh.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 Introduction and Casual Banter02:43 Health Benefits of Jamu06:45 Mouth Taping: An Unconventional Sleep Hack08:17 The Science Behind Mouth Taping13:14 Practical Tips and Personal Experiences25:27 Nose Breathing and Nitric Oxide25:59 Diaphragmatic Breathing and Vagus Nerve27:16 Turmeric and Vagus Nerve Activation27:38 Breathing Techniques for Calmness28:32 Nasal Breathing for Athletic Performance30:40 Mouth Taping Methods and Recommendations31:26 Mouth Taping Experiences and Tips35:00 Mouth Taping for Snoring and Sleep Apnea38:01 Glymphatic System and Sleep40:14 Mouth Taping Products and Environmental Considerations49:12 Final Thoughts and Listener Engagement~Reach out to the Nuanced Naturopaths ⁠here⁠!

Do you suffer from age-related aches and pains that traditional stretching or medications won't relieve? Are you doing all the sports recovery things and still feel pain? It's possible that the cause isn't actually aging, but because your body is in a state of fight-or-flight. Tune into this episode and discover how simple posture adjustments and diaphragmatic breathing can transform your physical performance and well-being.In this episode of Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck welcomes Dr. Amy Novotny, founder of the PABR® Institute. Together they explore a naturalistic approach to pain relief, stress reduction, and overall wellness. Dr. Novotny shares her groundbreaking work on how altering your breathing mechanics and ribcage positioning can shift the body from a fight-or-flight state to a state of rest and relaxation, helping to reduce muscle tension and improve physical performance. By addressing the autonomic nervous system this approach can relieve digestive issues, and decrease the impact of chronic stress, and this episode offers insightful strategies for relieving pain, improving sleep, and even overcoming trauma-related physiological responses—all without the need for traditional stretching or medications. The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast is hosted by Jenn Trepeck, discussing wellness and weight loss for real life, clearing up the myths, misinformation, bad science & marketing surrounding our nutrition knowledge and the food industry. Let's dive into wellness and weight loss for real life, including drinking, eating out, and skipping the grocery store. IN THIS EPISODE: (05:27) Amy shares her professional journey(09:47) The three main components of the autonomic nervous system. Amy explains the results of a patient changing their breathing mechanics(15:15) Amy explains muscle contraction and why it's worse with age and gives an example of how to relax the breastbone(26:47) What should you notice about back muscle tension (29:11) Belly breathing versus diaphragmatic breathing and how chewing and swallowing impacts your TMJ jointKEY TAKEAWAYS: Dr. Amy Novotny discovered that altering her ribcage position and breathing mechanics allowed her to shift from a fight-or-flight state (sympathetic) to a state of rest-and-relaxation (parasympathetic), significantly reducing muscle tension and enhancing her physical performance without traditional stretching or rehabilitation techniques.Dr. Novotny's work highlights how chronic stress and muscle tension, especially in the abdominal region, can contribute to digestive issues. People can naturally relieve physical tension, improve digestion, and even overcome trauma-related physiological responses by addressing posture and breathing mechanics.Unlike voluntary muscle contractions (e.g., lifting an object), emotional stress triggers involuntary muscle contractions that can persist unnoticed. Over time, this accumulated tension can lead to chronic pain, which is often mistaken for age-related discomfort.QUOTES:         (06:11) “I realized if I changed my breathing mechanics, very different than breath work, but if I changed my mechanics of how I held my rib cage and how that affected my diaphragm, I could run eight miles in 55 minutes, get off the treadmill and not have to stretch.” Dr. Amy Novotny(20:45) “You must physically train your body to get in the correct position again.” Dr. Amy Novotny(28:51) “There are specific techniques that can help us hone that interoception.” Jenn Trepeck(33:52) “Diarrhea, constipation, all those types of things as we know, are also connected to trauma." Jenn Trepeck.(34:45) “I'm a big fan of playing with it. See what happens.

Her unique approach comes from her experience treating in various settings and with a wide range of patient populations over the past 16 years. Her background in orthopedics, sports, geriatrics, balance disorders, nerve injuries, and most recently, chronic pain; and influences from coursework at the Postural Restoration Institute gave her the foundation to develop this treatment method to address a wide variety of painful and restrictive conditions. Her methods have helped countless people reduce and eliminate pain, stress, anxiety, orthopedic surgeries, sleep issues and the need for medications. She co-authored two Amazon #1 Best-Selling books, Don't Quit: Stories of Persistence, Courage and Faith and Success Habits of Super Achievers, sharing her journey on developing the PABR® Method. She co-authored Wall Street Journal Best Seller, From WTF to OMG, With a Little LOL: Unpacking Entrepreneurs' Hidden Lessons.  Her ability to speak French and Spanish has allowed her to communicate with and help various clients worldwide, including France, Mexico, Central America and South America. She has a variety of interests including running 40+ marathons, running 10 ultra marathons (including two 100 milers), completing an Ironman triathlon, photographing wildlife and landscapes all over the world that has led to several of her images being chosen as Photos of the Day, most notably National Geographic Your Shot World Top Photo of the Day.

Have you ever been stressed or tense? You are not alone. Daily stress increases in the lives of many individuals. But the good news is that in a moment of anxiety, one can exhale and immediately reconnect with a happier state. While it is indeed essential, breathing is much more than a basic human necessity – it can help slow down racing thoughts and even reduce stress. But first, let me explain what these methods are based on and how you can introduce them to your lifestyle without hassle. Why Breathing Techniques Work Breathing is one of the most effective techniques for easing stress levels. When you get stressed, the body copes by responding as if it is under attack, i.e., the fight or flight response, and therefore, your heart races and the muscles tense. Therefore, deep and controlled breathing decreases this by triggering the parasympathetic nervous system with messages of rest. Breathing in and out helps lower cortisol levels – a hormone associated with stress – in the human body. This makes you more relaxed and positively impacts your health by reducing your blood pressure and the rate at which your heart is beating. Breathing Techniques for Instant relaxation While we are sometimes stressed, these relaxation methods will be beneficial. Have a glance! 1. Diaphragmatic Breathing Also known as diaphragmatic breathing, this technique incorporates deep breath that expands the lungs and leads to contraction and expansion of the abdominal muscles. Here's how: ·         Relax in a comfortable position, preferably sitting or lying down. ·         Steady your feet, and bring two right-hand fingers to your upper left chest and the remaining fingers to your lower left abdomen. ·         Take a deep breath with your nostrils, and try to feel your belly button come outwards. ·         Now breathe out deeply, releasing the air through the mouth, and try to look at your falling abdomen. 2. 4-7-8 Breathing Developed by Dr. Andrew Weil, this technique relaxes the nervous system: ·         Put as much air into your lungs as possible using your nose only for four seconds. ·         Please take a deep breath and hold it for 7 seconds. ·         Slowly breathe from your mouth for 8 seconds. Incorporate this cycle 4x, preferably before retiring to bed at night. 3. Box Breathing Used by Navy SEALs to stay calm under pressure: ·         Take a deep breath and breathe through your mouth for approximately four seconds. ·         Retain a break for the next four seconds going up to the count. ·         Exhale through the mouth for four second Repeating this for 5–10 minutes brings the person to a calm state. Ways that they can be Incorporated in Routine Activities Try incorporating these techniques into your daily routine through these simple strategies: Morning Routine: Take five minutes to practice diaphragmatic breathing to ensure a relaxing tone. Breaks at Work: Breathe in a box during break times if you are stressed or want to enhance your concentration. Evening Wind Down: Take a few minutes before bed to try the 4-7-8 breathing exercises to help a person fall asleep. By doing this, different breathing techniques can help minimize the effects of stress and improve the quality of life. As we have mentioned many times before, breathing is a unique weapon that you have; now, begin to breathe yourself into calmness. Seeking Support! Remember, seeking professional help is okay if you feel the techniques are not working or need more guidance. If you would like a more detailed explanation of breathing your way to relaxation, we recommend talking to Dr. Jason Jones at our Chiropractic office in Elizabeth.

I hope everyone had a great weekend. It is Monday, so that means that you are live with the pelvic division. My name is Dr. Jessica Gingrich, and today we are going to talk about the most bang for your buck pelvic floor addition. So I'm going to present today two separate presentations. So I don't want to talk about necessarily a case study or two separate case studies, just different presentations that you may see in the clinic. if you are a newer pelvic floor clinician, you may feel stuck. You may feel, oh, I haven't seen this or haven't seen this many combinations of things. Where do I start? And so, that's what I want to talk about today. So, the first thing or the first patient we have is going to be the person that has pain. That could be back pain, that could be hip pain, SI joint pain, tailbone pain, pain with penetration, and that may be during intercourse, during a vaginal exam, whether that is a speculum or digital exam. They may even have a history of this with tampon use. Even bedroom toys can be an issue. They may also say that they have issues with bowel movements. They have difficulty emptying or they do have a bowel movement, but when they're done, they don't feel quite empty. From the urinary standpoint, they may feel like they pee all the time, so they have frequency. Or when they get the urge to pee, they really have to go, so more like urgency. And then this also may present with or without urinary incontinence. On the flip side of that, we have the weaker pelvic floor. And so this is someone that comes in and maybe when you're talking to them about their activity level, Well, I haven't worked out all that much or I like to walk. I don't really lift weights. I haven't done it in years. And they may also present with leakage. They may even have heaviness in their vagina or dragging sensation. All of these presentations may come with, um, babies or, or no babies, right? Back to our first presentation, that person also may have that type A personality, where they like structure, and they feel like they have to work out all the time. I wanna kinda go off on a little bit of a tangent about that personality. We tend to say that, oh, well, they have that type A personality, and that's not a bad thing, right? If we didn't have that personality, what would our world look like? What we wanna do is we want to help that person Um, lean in to how they can best just function, right? And so when it comes to working out for a type a person, it may be a lot of education, right? You don't need to work out seven days a week, but this is what it can look like. Here's what programming looks like to really maximize things. There's a great book that I'm currently reading. It's called A Guide to Losing Control or Type A, I'll have to post it in here. I can't remember the title of it. But it's a really great book around just the structured Type A personality and how to really lean into that and help that person just feel better and function better, really optimizing recovery, stuff like that. So I'll drop that in the comments here when I'm done. So what I wanna talk about is where can we start with both of these presentations if we don't know where to go? So with that weaker person, they need to be loaded, right? They need to get stronger. So that's the first and foremost. But maybe they're not ready for that. So what we're gonna talk about, there's a thousand different ways to do this, but we're gonna talk about relaxing, okay? This is not the, well, you need to just relax your pelvic floor. You need to just relax. No, it's more about knowing how to relax. So, the first thing that I want to talk about, and I know this is everywhere, but is the squatty potty or getting your feet elevated to some capacity. What this does from a mechanical reason, and I love talking about this in the clinic, is give them the reason why they're doing it. Don't just say, hey, when you go to the bathroom, elevate your feet. Okay, see you later. Tell them why. So what this does is it decreases that anorectal angle. So when that angle decreases, now we're not having to fight against natural angles in our rectum to help keep us continent. The other thing that it does is it allows that puborectalis muscle to relax, to just unkink the base of the rectum. So two biomechanical reasons as to why we are suggesting that they get their feet up. Now you may be asking yourself, why are we talking about a squatty potty to relax the pelvic floor? Cause that's maybe one or two times in a day, depending on the patient in front of you. So that is going to allow the pelvic floor to just work optimally, right? You're getting the pelvic floor. When the pelvic floor needs to be off, you are helping that to be off rather than sitting and without your feet elevated and your pelvic floor might be on a little bit, or if you're bearing down, maybe your pelvic floor reflexively kicks on. And so that's just optimizing your pelvic floor on day-to-day functions. that need to happen, right? Now, I will say that some people don't feel great with having their feet elevated, and that's okay. Also, the angle of which their hips are is different per person. Also, I feel like you guys can hear my dogs barking. They're making their PT on Ice daily show debut. Sorry about that. The second one is a diaphragmatic breath. And we hear this one all the time too. Well, let's just teach our patients how to diaphragmatically breathe. Yes, that's a really important thing, really for anyone, but we need to teach this well, right? We can't just say, here's how you breathe. Okay, go do it. We need to have them focus on what they are trying to feel. And so when we are diaphragmatically breathing, when we inhale, our pelvic floor should descend. Have them focus on that. Where does your pelvic floor go when you inhale? Focus on that movement. And also just… and have them do this in different positions. You know, they may be on all fours doing it. They may be in a deep squat. They may be sitting on the floor. And this is likely going to be a static thing that we're doing. So, having them be still really focusing on it. Don't watch Netflix and do this as you're starting to learn. Now, different cues that I like to use around where your pelvic floor is, it looks different for everyone. So, does your pelvic floor descend? Some people, they're like, yeah, it does. They kind of understand that they are aware enough about that. Sometimes people aren't, and so you have to give them one structure to focus on. One of my favorites, and I know you guys have heard me say this a thousand times, is feeling your butthole open. We know where that is most of the time, right? When we have to go to the bathroom and we are not by a toilet, we know where that muscle is because we squeeze it. That's certainly not everyone, but it's a good place to start, okay? Now, the third thing is incorporating that diaphragmatic breath that we talked about after a workout or even before intimacy. And that can be a really powerful thing if someone is having pain with insertion, painful orgasms, painful arousal. And that could work for people who own a vagina and for people who own a penis. So give those three things a shot. But remember, we always want the end of that plan of care to look like that person lifting weights. They also may be doing Kegels, right? They may need to have that base strength of where, or I say strength, Kegels can increase strength for someone, but it's probably going to be short-lived, right? Because A, it's really kind of body weight, and B, we don't function just under body weight, we function under load. And so, ending with your plan of care of teaching this person basic barbell movements, dumbbell movements, Kettlebell movements, maybe that's where they're starting and encouraging them to lift weights. This looks different per generation, right? We may have to convince some people that this is a really good thing. And then other times we may not need to, right? People are going to be a little more into it. So, go out and try these three things. We've got the Squatty Potty, we've got Diaphragmatic Breathing, and we've got Diaphragmatic Breathing following a workout or before intimacy. Give those a shot and let me know how they go. I will see you in a couple of Mondays. OUTRO Hey, thanks for tuning in to the PT on Ice daily show.

Struggling to overcome the emotional and financial pain of a big loss in trading? Are you constantly chasing the illusion of control and falling into the trap of gambling instead of trading?  No matter how experienced or knowledgeable you are, trading can sometimes be a difficult game.

Carter Miles is a modern day Yogi and a professional Yoga Therapist. Based in Austin, TX. he helps people and athletes to "Move Better, Breathe Better and Feel Better" and he joins #OntheMark to do the same with you. Carter explains the mechanics of yoga - moving bodyweight against elastic resistance - and why it is beneficial to golfers for better flexibility and mobility in strength. He also dives into Breathing (Good Breathing Patterns, Nose vs Mouth Breathing, and Diaphragmatic Breathing) and Restorative Yoga practices to reduce tension and calm the Central Nervous System. He explains how the body is designed to heal itself and how it either exists in a Stressed State or a Healing State and how, through good life habits and yoga, you can live in the latter more often. Carter also illustrates two basic yoga shapes that will target rotation and improve your golf swing. He explains how to do a Twisting Pose in two ways - the Supine Twist and the Closed Twist.  This podcast is available on YouTube.

This exercise uses conscious control of the diaphragm (the largest breathing muscle) to quickly reset the nervous system and allow access to a deeply relaxed state (rest & digest mode). Get situated in a comfortable spot, lying down on your back. Make sure to limit distractions, and use pillows and props as needed so that you can relax more fully and focus on the breathwork. ~Check out my book 'The Power of Guided Meditation' (https://www.cntrdwellness.com/book) or Join Us in community for live, online meditation sessions every Saturday morning (https://www.CNTRDwellness.com/classes) --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/mindscaping/support

In episode 8, U.S. free diving champion, Ted Harty, also known as Aqua Man, discusses how diaphragmatic breathing reduces our heart rate, calms our nervous system, increases oxygen in our blood stream, and reduces stress and anxiety.  This deep breath technique with a slower exhale is available to all of us and it's easy to do.  Ted shares some hilarious stories and talks us through the breath technique.

When we are anxious or stressed our breaths become very shallow and we don't fully draw air into our lungs. Intentionally focusing on our breath help us lower our heart rate, blood pressure, increase energy levels, decrease anxiety and stress, improve sleep, and allow for a more focused mine. Basically, allowing us to be in the driver seat and in control of our lives! We all have a few minutes in the morning, while we're driving, at lunch, in between meetings, during naps....to look inward and focus on our breathing. It is free. Easy. And will change your life if you keep working at it. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/christy-payne/message

Breathing seems so natural because you do it every day. In this episode, you'll learn that breathing not only keeps us alive, it also affects our emotions, attention, and how our brains process the world around us. Especially important is learning how to use diaphragmatic breathing. Highlights In times of stress, people often do shallow breathing – from the chest. Diaphragmatic breathing is much healthier and helps to relieve stress. Here's a list of some of the positive effects of deep diaphragmatic breathing. I talk about how to do diaphragmatic breathing. How you are being in the world is a choice. How you are in the world is a habit. You can train yourself to notice when you are tensing up, and when you do how to use breathing as a release. Being in a hurry or being nervous doesn't help anything. If you understand that you have control over how you feel and how you react to what's going on, it will make your life not only easier but also more successful. When in a state of stress or fear you can't make the best decisions for you. If you get in touch with and deal with the pain of your childhood, you will have less physical pain. I asked myself what can a person do that is free and easy to do, and the answer is learn diaphragmatic breathing. If you become aware of what's going on in the world, you can prepare for the chaos and make decisions as to how you want to feel and act.

Description: An immersive reading ‘O could my wandering breeze-pinioned mind' by Henry Derozio with reflection on anxiety and therapyPoem:O! could my wandering, breeze-pinioned mind  True brotherhood in earthborn spirit find.  One that might ever on unflagging wings  Companion me in my imaginings,  One that from earth could take its earthliness.  And robe it with the mind's own light — 'twould bless  The wheeling of existence — we should rise  Like wild twin comets hurrying through the skies,  Or swift as starshoots dart into the chasms  Of earlier planets. These enthusiasms  Which ceaseless glow in my volcanic brain.  Because unshared, have ever brought me pain,  And left my mind in dark, despairing mood  To feel, and think upon its solitude. — ReferencesHenry Derozio: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Louis_Vivian_Derozio Sonnet: https://scalar.lehigh.edu/derozio/sonnet-o-could-my-wandering-breeze-pinioned-mind?path=fakeer-of-jungheera-a-metrical-tale-and-other-poems-1828 Grech T, Marks A.

Are you thriving through conscious breathing?The diaphragm is the foundation of the ribcage and it is SO important to pay attention to and strengthen it. When the diaphragm is optimized, it brings air to the base of the lungs for proper oxygen absorption and creates an internal heating system.Learn how we can increase our intake of oxygen by 600% in this episode.Get your FREE Ultimate Fascia Decompression Starter Kit here: www.blocktherapy.com/fasciakitThanks for listening to The Fascia Masters.

Welcome to Low Carb Conversations with Leah Williamson and Holly Jean Mullen, Functional Nutritional Therapy Practitioners.   In this episode, Holly Jean and Leah review their favorite moments from most recent previous episodes. Breathing, digestion, and stress management go hand-in-hand! This week's article is a look at how belly breathing could be the key to better digestion. Deep belly breathing can actually massage the contents of the gut helping move food through the body for better elimination. Tune in to hear more about this and tips on a non cost method that is essential to life! When we activate the diaphragm with breath, it creates a gentle massaging action for internal organs like the intestines and stomach. In doing so, it can reduce abdominal pain, urgency, bloating, and constipation. Diaphragmatic breathing, or deep breathing, does not take much more effort than standard breathing and is one of the best things you can do to help with digestion.

Jay is back to answer more great questions from our loyal listeners! In this episode, Jay discusses... -The Hanu device allows you to log and track life events so you can analyze how your life events effect your stress...04:10 -Dr. Wiles uses the Hanu device daily and has noticed how eating effects him physiologically...08:15 We have 3 branches of the autonomic nervous system. Eating food is an activator for the enteric branch of the nervous system. We can prime the digestive system with breathwork. Heart rate will go up when you eat. The parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems can work antagonistically or complimentarily. It's complicated, but that's physiology! Intermittent fasting: when you break the fast with foods that are highly inflammatory, there are immense changes in biometrics. The effects of inflammatory foods persist much longer than a typical, less inflammatory meal. Dr. Wiles has found from his personal tracking that there is a direct correlation between the amount of time HRV is suppressed and heart rate is increased after the meal, all dependent on the quality of the food, and perhaps even more so, the quantity of the food consumed when breaking the fast. Dr. Wiles has conducted some tests with quantity and quality of food for breaking his intermittent fasts. -You can use your own data to get self-informed about the variables that effect your nervous system from a longevity standpoint and a severity standpoint...25:00 -https://www.researchgate.net/publication/348882443_Brief_breath_awareness_training_yields_poorer_working_memory_performance_in_the_context_of_acute_stress (A new study about mindful awareness to help prime the nervous system for better stress resilience)...27:25 -"https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2021-30999-001 (The Influence of Slow Paced Breathing on Executive Function)" study...33:30 -The take-away from these two new articles is that to improve executive functioning and cognitive function, engage in activities that slow your breath respiratory rate down, but do not engage in activities that have you focus on your breath awareness...36:30 Listener Q&A: Brandon asks: I'm having a hard time understanding if my breathing mechanics are still dysfunctional. It's hard to tell if my ribs are expanding like you have said that they should. Am I doing something wrong? Also, I've heard that when you are exhaling that it can help to gently pull your naval inward. Is that OK?...39:30 In the answer, Jay discusses: This question focuses on biomechanics. Panic attacks are the most extreme form of anxiety, and you see very short, quick breaths. Rapid, Thoracic chest breathing. LSD breathing: Low, Slow, Diaphragmatic Breathing is recommended. Try not to get hung up on executing the 'perfect mechanics' of a breath The gentle pull of the naval is not something you actively pull. You just notice it when you are breathing correctly. Jennifer asks: When I am doing breathwork exercises, especially to relieve stress, I have found that instead of sitting upright, I actually like to lean over. Still seated. Is this OK? I just feel better when I do this....50:50 In the answer, Jay discusses: When we are engaging the core and over-activating muscle contraction, it has a negative impact. Maintaining a non-rigid, relaxed neck posture is good. Biometrics are highly subjective and individualized, so try different postures and check the biometric shifts and changes for yourself. Is it OK? Yes! When you lean over, you are letting gravity help expand the lungs. Trust your body when things feel good and use data to confirm. That's a wrap!

Create Positive Change One Breathe at a Time Things may not be the way you want them right now, but you can do a lot with what you do have and where you are at. Just breathe!   I'm going to keep this week's post short and simple. Learning to breathe the RIGHT way is so important for your body and mind.  Diaphragmatic Breathing is when you allow long, deep breaths to come in and out of your diaphragm, not from your chest. To illustrate this lay on your back and put one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach. Now breathe in through your nose and out of your mouth. You should feel the hand on your stomach rise and fall, NOT the one on your chest. If you are breathing correctly, you will be able to take nice, slow and deep breathes in and out of your diaphragm which will slow your heart rate down, allow you to call your nerves, push blood through your body more efficiently and, all around, make you feel better.     This week I want you to practice Diaphragmatic Breathing once a day, at least, for 1 minute. Take that time just for you. If you want to really go for it, do this exercise whenever you feel yourself getting frustrated, angry, or afraid. Spend time just practicing this breathing and really slowing down your life in that moment, even for just a minute.  Let me know how it goes and what changes you start to feel as the week progresses.  You might be surprised at the mental and emotional benefits you feel from doing this just once a day!! Oh, and enjoy some baby goat love, too!❤️   As always: Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!   much love, Angie

The diaphragm is the primary breathing muscle and in most people, it is weak, tight, locked, or dysfunctional and they rely instead on the upper chest, neck, and shoulders muscles to do breathe. This is not healthy and creates excess tension in the upper body. The primary breathing muscle, the diaphragm, is used as the main motor of proper breathing. This practice will help you become aware of your diaphragm and guide you in how to use it properly. Alleviate Stress and Anxiety in 6 Weeks is her newly released online breathing course.
