Learn to Breathe Deeply for Better Health
Many people may not realize that they are not breathing deep enough. Shallow breathing does not allow enough oxygen into the lungs. There are even clubs were you can go just to get extra oxygen. Many people rave about these establishments and say that they have never felt better in their lives.
It is not necessary for you to breathe deeply every time to breathe, but you can set aside some time each day to take a few deep breaths. I would recommend about 10 minutes per day.
Sit in a comfortable position with your feet flat on the floor. Breathe in through your nose to the count of seven. Hold your breath for the count of four. Exhale your breath to the count of eight. Make sure you get all of the air out of your lungs and then repeat.
Getting extra oxygen will help you feel better, give you more energy and make you healthier.
