Breathing and Breathing Method Breathing and breathing method mainly achieve the purpose of practicing and promoting qi by breathing exercises. Mainly the essence of breathing, getting rid of the old and getting new. When inhaling, imagine that the fresh air of nature is slowly inhaled into the body through the nose; When exhaling, you can also think that the turbid qi of the related viscera is slowly discharged from the body, and practice breathing and inhaling 36 times every morning and evening. After long-term practice, it is very effective to improve physical condition, especially when the season changes and the weather turns cold, which can improve the body's resistance. Specific methods of breathing training: stand with your feet apart, hands down naturally, stand up naturally, lips slightly close together, and tongue down. Before inhaling, spit out the residual air in the lungs. When inhaling through the nose, lift your arms forward in parallel, at the same speed as inhaling. When the inhalation stops, raise your arms to the highest point of your head. When exhaling, your arms slowly droop at the sides of your body at the same speed as the airflow. When breathing stops, put your arms at your sides. At the beginning of training, the speed of breathing and inhaling is equal, and the starting speed can be slower. When training to a certain extent, the breathing speed should be as fast and deep as possible, the exhaled airflow should be slow, stable and powerful, the exhalation time should be long, and the rubbing sound should be avoided when breathing and inhaling. In the elderly patients with chronic bronchitis, breathing training needs to be relaxed first. In order to increase the utilization efficiency of diaphragm, reduce ineffective breathing, relax chest muscles, improve dyspnea, and adjust breathing with breathing exercise will get better results. The most commonly used posture is when sitting, the back, shoulders and arms are relaxed, the body leans forward slightly, and the elbows rest on the knees to support the weight of the body. If you stand, your feet are slightly apart, your body leans forward slightly, your lower back and hips lean against the wall, your shoulders and arms naturally droop, and your neck relaxes. Breathing training mainly includes lip contraction breathing and abdominal breathing. The specific method is: put your hands on your abdomen and relax your whole body, especially your shoulders; Inhale slowly from the nose until it is full, and the abdomen protrudes at the same time when inhaling; Lips pursed, like whistling, slowly spit out the air in the mouth, and the stomach sinks inward with exhalation; Try to control the exhalation time to about twice the inhalation time. Practice one group every morning and evening, and the number of times in each group can be measured. Moderate breathing is helpful for clearing lung, especially for the recovery of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema. Apply this breathing pattern to various activities in daily life, such as controlling breathing when climbing stairs, inhaling one breath at a time, or inhaling two breaths at a time; When walking, you should also do it together with breathing exercise; Try to make the time ratio of inspiration and expiration 1: 2 or L: 3, for example, two steps for inspiration and four steps for expiration. It can not only improve the asthma symptoms of patients, but also improve the exercise ability and quality of life of patients. Five-step breathing for health preservation 1. Look up and breathe in. Sit, sit and stand. It's best to sit on the yoga board, tuck in your abdomen, lift your shoulder blades and clamp them, and bend your spine backwards to absorb air. When inhaling through your nose, do your best, step by step. At the beginning of training, don't look up too much and inhale too much to prevent dizziness. Second, hold your breath and pause. This is a state of excessive luck, and air no longer enters and exits. Hold your breath for too long, or you will get dizzy. Third, the head is sinking. On the premise that the mouth and nose are airtight, the scapula is lifted up, moved forward and pressed down, while the shoulders are relaxed and the waist collapses (the key move), and a large amount of gas is inhaled, and the gas naturally sinks into the abdomen. When you sink your breath, you must relax physically and mentally, so as to achieve good relaxation of your shoulders and collapse of your waist, and slowly sink your breath into your abdomen easily and naturally. Fourth, stop breathing after holding your breath and sinking your stomach. Fifth, exhale, hold your breath until the effect is just right, slowly spit out the inhaled gas, or gently spit it out with an "ah".
