Exhale Passive

Exhalation is the most important part of the breathing process. It ensures that the oxygen we breathe enters the lungs and carbon dioxide is removed from them. A person begins to exhale after taking a deep breath after a few seconds. Although exhalation is almost always accompanied by movement of the chest, when coughing and sneezing, which occur as a result of spasms in the human respiratory system, it occurs due to contraction of the diaphragm. In humans, fast and deep breathing is very beneficial. It increases the intensity of gas exchange. Some argue that a smoker’s lung activity will not decrease due to constant smoking, but exhalation, which occurs as a result of muscle efforts during inhalation, on the contrary,



Passive exhalation is breathing that can be controlled without using muscles. A person breathes slowly and smoothly, this helps strengthen posture, and also helps in the treatment of chronic cough or diseases of the respiratory system. Exhalation is carried out without the help of the respiratory muscles and is controlled by consciousness. If you master passive exhalation, you will be able to actively inhale and exhale, relaxing your lungs completely. People can use passive exhalation to relax and reduce stress and anxiety. Some people, while doing yoga, consciously control their posture and this skill helps them master the technique of relaxing the consciousness, mind and body at the subconscious level.

To master the skill of passive exhalation, it is enough to perform the following exercises: Exhale. Place your hands on your stomach, above the belt. Place the palm of one hand on the edge of the other palm, that is, palm to palm. Interlace your fingers into a lock. Hold your breath for a second and inhale slowly through your nose. The hand in the lock below should pull the other hand up onto your hand. Make sure your chest rises up rather than rounding out to the sides. When entering the collarbone, a characteristic crunch is heard. The spine should be straight throughout the exhalation. Holding your breath. First, holding your breath must be controlled by consciousness over time. To do this, you will need to additionally train your brain. Gradually, the arm muscles will begin to train themselves, and holding your breath will pass purely mechanically. There is absolutely no need to monitor this. When this exercise can be done perfectly, you can begin to exhale passively “from the whole body.” Have someone stand next to you and look at your face. Hold your breath for a few seconds and listen to your feelings. Now pay attention to physical sensations, including tension. Do nothing at all, try to completely surrender to this process. The muscles are tense, but completely relaxed with the help of passive micro-movements of the lungs and hands and fingers. After a short break, release your free hand and raise it at an angle of 90° relative to your palm. Concentrate on this joint, it should be at exactly the same angle as the other joint of the hand. Body stabilization. Stabilize your core by centering your upper torso on your thoracic spine. Avoid losing balance and keep your head still. Relax your stomach. Imagine that your spine is the core, and your elbows and ribs are like weights. This exercise will help you relax your body completely and help the air circulate calmly, inhaling a fresh portion of oxygen. Do not tilt your head down under any circumstances, otherwise the main load will fall on your neck. It is important not to turn your head. If there is a feeling that the neck and spine are moving together, then this is normal, this is what passive micromovements look like. You must stop the movement solely by your own body effort or volitional effort. The more you practice passive breathing before holding after exercise, the better prepared you will be to breathe correctly on your own.
