Breathing Exercises

Post by elise »

Always suck in/blow out as if you're using a straw and keep your shoulders/chest relaxed.

Imagine the air going to the bottom of your belly, and control in and out. Engage your core.
• Pant (like a dog) or HA HA HA to feel your diaphragm/abs engage.

• Lying down, put book/cat on diaphragm and breathe deeply in and out.
In = stomach expands and book goes up, out = stomach and book come back down.
shoulders and chest stay relaxed

• Farinelli exercise: Breathe in for 6 beats, out for 6. In for 7, out for 7. In for 8, out for 8, etc.
Go to 10 at first, then try to build up to 15 or 20.

• "tss" and "shh" either held (tssssssss) or in bursts (tss tss tss tss), in for 4 beats, out for 8/12/16/20. Make sure they are even all the way.
Make sure you use the entire set of beats to breathe in and out, don't suck/blow quickly and then hold your breath!
