Years ago, my Chiropractor mentioned I was not breathing with my belly… my upper body was a disaster of chronic tightness and pain. I was stressed and filled with anxiety.
As I’ve focused on breath through mindfulness & yoga... there has been a significant change in my body tension and overall sense of well being.
You can train your body to breathe in through your nose, expand the breath into your belly and gently exhale in the same manner. This is very similar to when we unconsciously take in a deep breath and release a heavy sigh to relieve ourselves and take a pause during a stressful situation.
Over time, it’s a Habit you no longer to focus on... you begin to breathe this way without focusing, as your body realizes how much more efficient it is.
I’d say it’s worth a try...
