Moving is about feeling better. We are physical animals, and daily exercise is esential to our health. Relaxation breathing can be easily integrated into your day, since all it involves is sitting quietly, focusing on the breath, and allowing air to completely fill the lungs right down to the abdomen.
Many people discover that only their chest expands when they breathe.
Lie on your back and place a book on your belly. Relax your stomach muscles and inhale deeply into your abdomen so that the book rises. When you exhale, the book should fall. You'll still be bringing air into your upper chest, but now you are also bringing air down into the lower portion of your lungs and expanding your entire chest cavity. Sit up and place your right hand on your abdomen and your left hand on your chest.
