Welcome to the Breathwork Module! Have you ever noticed how your breath changes throughout the day? It quickens when you're stressed, slows when you're relaxed, and might even hitch when you're surprised.  But breath is more than just a reaction – it's a powerful tool we can use to influence our physical and mental state. In this module, we'll delve into the world of pranayama, the yogic art of breath control.

Please take a close look at the "Anatomy of breath" picture.

Inhalation (Breathing In)

  • Chest expands: The ribs and diaphragm contract, expanding the chest cavity.
  • Diaphragm contracts: The diaphragm, a dome-shaped muscle below the lungs, flattens downward.
  • Negative pressure: This expansion creates a negative pressure in the chest cavity.
  • Air flows in: Air is drawn through the nose or mouth, down the trachea, and into the lungs.

Exhalation (Breathing Out)

  • Chest contracts: The ribs and diaphragm relax, causing the chest cavity to contract.
  • Lung: The lungs are compressed, forcing air out.
  • Diaphragm relaxes: The diaphragm returns to its dome shape.
  • Air flows out: Air is expelled through the trachea, nose, or mouth.
