Filling the Entire Lungs With Oxygen
Lie flat on your back, either in bed or on the floor, relax and then slowly inhale through your nose and do not consciously try to move the upper chest or the abdominal region. While you are inhaling, place your hands on your lower ribs, which are known as the floating ribs. Now – if you are breathing correctly – you can feel your lower ribs expand. Slowly take in a long, deep breath. When you feel that your lungs are filled to full capacity with air – then you can slowly expel the breath with a long, lip-pursed sigh.
