If you have a hairy, as observed in the House! No, I’m not crazy! Just us bipeds, immersed as we are in a hectic and full of tension, we lost the ability to breathe fully and deeply! Yogic breathing is similar to that of babies and animals and is the first step to deal with every situation in the best possible way!

If you can’t breathe well, in fact, you nervous when you are rilassia, you calm when you are upset, it revitalizes when you feel tired, you clarify your ideas when you get confused.

But how to do yogic breathing? Yogic breathing follows three phases: the first is the abdominal breath, what you do when you breathe, that uses the lower part of the lungs. The second stage is the chest breathing, which uses the side lobes of the lungs, while the third is the clavicular breathing, that climbs to the top of your lungs.

To start you have to sit back: then lying down, sitting or standing in a position that you can keep for a wee bit of time without becoming fatigued, provided that your spine is straight! The first thing to do is place your palms on your stomach and twist, exhale! You must exhale completely, leaving the outside air flow as much as possible, so empty your lungs completely.

Exhale is very important, because it throws out all the dirty air and prepare the lungs and the whole organism to receive clean water, loaded with oxygen, that will feed the entire body. Ok…
Exhale and inhale for some time, watching the hands that rise with the inspiro and lower with the exhale.

Now bring your hands over the ribs, putting them on the sides of the thorax. When you inhale, now, be mindful of the belly expands, as before, but also to the air that rises along the column, expanding his chest. When you exhale, the air travels down the column and your ABS contracting slightly. Go for some breath, keeping attention on your body which expands and contracts.

Now your hands moving a little higher up, near the collarbone and below the shoulders: when you inhale the belly and chest expand, but the attention follows the air up on until you get below her shoulders, letting her hands rise slightly following the movement of the clavicles. When you exhale, now, you will notice that not only is it compresses the chest and belly will deflate, but also that your shoulders relax.

At first this may seem laborious breathing, but with time it will become a very healthy habit! The important thing is not to strive: must be performed breathing slowly and deeply, becoming a single movement of the upper body.

Once you get the full experience with this type of breathing you can also enter the retention with empty lungs and lungs (suniaka ekumbaka). Usually a respiratory cycle (expiration, retention, retention, insipirazione) more or less lasts 11 seconds: you exhale for 6 seconds, 1 restraint, inspiration for 3 and 1 restraint.

Uuuhhhhhyeaaaa!
