    I think there may be a misunderstanding here. My understanding of belly breathing is not that you only use the belly to breath, but use it for more capacity and along with the lungs and rib cage expansion

      Yes, agree. That's how i use to breath while meditating and slowing my brain waves down. I use all of it and i can ex and inhale for so long and i feel how the air fills up all of my lungs from belly to chest leaving no free spot

The point is to get away from shallow chest breathing associated with fight or flight.

      @golfingmatt82 Před 4 lety

      Yes that can all be tied to the lack of control of your diaphragm on the L side as a breathing muscle. When you have a rib flare you are using the diaphragm as a postural stabilizer which is more common on the L due to the heart pushing down on the diaphragm. Best thing would be to tie home the L serratus anterior and L abdominal obliques to reduce all 3 of these postural issues. The side plank she shows work these two muscles.

      If you want to get rid of anxiety or stress. Next time. Lay flat on your back and don't try to breath at all. Don't try to inhale or exhale. Let go. And Just let your body breath. You'll see the brunt of the body's movement is going to be the belly.
      So really if you want to breath correctly, the most important thing to look for is posture, and let the body breath itself. You shouldn't be having to breath yourself or even think about it.

  • @globoyflemming
    @globoyflemming Před 6 měsíci

    This is good information but at the same time misleading if interpreted improperly which is what I did. She is 100% right with how the diaphragm actually works and the importance of rib expansion etc... but dont interpret this improperly like i did and only focus on rib movement, the abdominal is still vital and important. I was focusing only on my ribs and letting my core/abdonimals be soft, not active and weak, thinking they have no function and its all about the ribs. If you dont pull your gut/core in sligthly that it will effect the quality of your exhale. They work together. The core/abs do help the mobility and function of the ribs, so does the back, SHOULDERS (Look into what a forward head posture can do to breathing) even the pelvis, even the legs because of how they can tilt your hips. Im not saying she was saying nothing else matters and its all rib and only rib, but the emphasis she put the diaphragm and rib, added with the fact i may not be the brightest and tend to never see the big picture in things led me to many many manyyy doctors appointsments and pulmanologist appointments. All to eventually come to the conclusion that its an entire system of muscles that help the 1 major function of breathing. Also, there have always been things like "breath of fire" and so on that emphasize all that belly movement and its pretty clear have good control and function of your core does assist your ribs, diaphargm and all other main and accessory muscles in breathing. So again, im not saying shes wrong. Just be careful how you perceive the information and feel things out for yourself as well and itll make more sense

    I can’t prop myself on my elbow like that for very long and I’m also straining my neck. My body is so messed up and it’s really depressing me. I let the docs perform an elective surgery on my neck 2.5 hrs ago and it was so painful and the spasms are slowly spreading down my trunk. I feel like I’m in costa to hyperarousal sympathetic state because my ribs are frozen. My left rib one day after doing my first yoga class since the surgery (I should’ve have done that) hurt and is now bloated like it doesn’t want to compress back, as if it was constantly full of air. My right rib is still flat (like when I put my hand around it it feels thinner like a wall). Gonna go buy some weed and buy some food so I don’t have to cook and spend the day working on my breath. Oh and when I do relax my left ribcage a bit like first time I did yesterday the pain on my upper ribs back scapula returns that I had previously for a few days before my left ribs “froze”. I think that’s a good thing though right ?

    I did side plank technique by breathing into the right side and exhaling into the left and after a number of repetitions I felt my "core" shift over to the left side and I was really struggling to pull my left ribs in, back and down. What does this imply?
