Discover the power of your breath! Did you know the average person takes about 20,000 breaths daily primarily using the diaphragm? Explore how deepening your breath and fully expanding your lungs can transform your well-being. Through imagery, touch, and anatomical insights, you’ll attain greater insight of your diaphragm and its crucial role in the health of your lungs, heart, liver, and stomach. Learn how a flexible rib cage enhances your breathing capacity and why deep breathing is key to relaxation. Engage in gentle movements to feel the mobility of your diaphragm and rib cage and discover how optimizing your breath can improve both physical and mental health.
