YOGYAKARTA - Diaphragm breathing is an important key in the efficiency of lung breathing. Breathing is a natural process that occurs without realizing it, but usually respiratory activity tends to be shallow and does not use full lung capacity. Therefore, you should do a diaphragm breathing exercise.

The breathing of the diaphragm is different from the usual breathing because it involves a complete diffragm and increases the efficiency of the lungs. Your breathing work will increase by routinely doing diaphragm breathing exercises. Basic diaphragm breathing exercises can be done easily in the position of lying down or sitting.

Diaphragm is a large muscle located at the bottom of the lungs. When you inhale, the diaphragm will contract and move downwards to create space for the lungs to fill with air and expand. When you exhale, the diaphragm will relax and move upwards to help get the air out.

Diaphragm breathing is also called stomach breathing, which involves the stomach, stomach muscles, and diaphragm while breathing. Each breath you breathe, you will actively pull the diaphragm down. This condition will help the lungs become filled more efficiently.

When breathing daily, you usually do it unconsciously and the diaphragm does not work too much. While while doing the breathing of the diaphragm, you will activate the diaphragm consciously to take a deeper breath. When doing this breathing, the stomach will move up and down, and feel the sensation of expanding or stretching in the stomach and not just on the chest or shoulders.

Actually, there are various forms of diaphragm breathing, but the simplest form is basic diaphragm breathing. You can do this breathing technique in a sitting position or lying down.

You can do the breathing technique of the diaphragm in a lying position, following the following steps:

You are advised to do this breathing exercise in a duration of 5'10 minutes every time, 3'4 times every day.

When you are used to the breathing technique of the diaphragm in a lying position, you can start trying the diaphragm breathing technique while sitting in a chair. How to do this breathing technique is almost the same as breathing exercise in the position of lying down.

It's just that you do the breathing technique while sitting in a chair. When practicing breathing techniques in a sitting position, make sure you keep your shoulders, head, and neck relaxed.

That's a review of the breathing exercises of the diaphragm that you can do while lying down or sitting. Full breathing of the diaphragm will provide many health benefits, especially the performance of the lungs.
