Namaste, welcome to the day 2 of beginners breathing challenge. Did you know 70% of our body's toxins get eliminated through the breath? Breathing is one of the important vital function. If you are not breathing properly, you are not eliminating your toxins. Whatever we are doing in this challenge to improve the quality of your breathing, it also has advanced techniques to enhance our lung capacity, but this is just focused on beginners. Once you really prepare with these techniques, prepare yourself with these techniques, you are ready to go for other advanced practices, especially if you are living in metro cities, like if you are exposed to the pollutions, or if you want to prevent your diseases. So let's see what I have planned for the day 2. So let's— before that, let's revise yesterday's practice. I hope, I believe that you have practiced the day 1 and coming to the day 2. So make sure your spine is erect and sitting in a comfortable position or sitting on a chair. Shoulders relaxed, neck relaxed, and everything. And second thing is your abdomen should come out whenever you are inhaling. Your belly should come out. Remember that. Okay, so yesterday we have done 3-3 breathing, which is like inhale for 3 counts, exhale for 3 counts. Along with this, Today I am adding 6:6 breathing. Inhale for 6 counts, exhale for 6 counts. Fine. So I hope you all are ready.
Yeah, first let's practice 3:3 breathing.
So back straight, neck straight, close your eyes, observe your breath.
Inhale and exhale. Inhale, 1, 2, 3. Exhale, 1-2-3! Inhale— inhale... exhale one-two-three; breathe out slowly and relax fully to release tension from back neck area of spine body part only—and then take deep breaths normally through nose or mouth as you want it for next round again. Exhale—one-twos-three—inhale-one-two-three-exhale-One-Twos-Three-Inhale One Two Three -Inhaling Slowly Around Neck Area Back Body Part Only (Slow Breathe). And hold this position till I say stop now. [PAUSE] Stop Now. Take Deep Breath Again into Belly Region Breathing Through Nose Like This —BellyBreath 2, 3. Exhale, 1, 2, 3. Inhale, 1, 2, 3. Exhale, 1, 2, 3. Relax.
Now keeping your eyes closed, let us increase the counts. Make your breathing slow, inhalation and exhalation slow. So inhale for 6 counts. And exhale for 6 counts. Let us begin.
With every inhalation, take positivity. And happiness. With every exhalation, release your stress, worries, and tensions. Inhale and exhale. Observe the expansion and contraction of your body, your chest, your belly, Your spine is erect. Your shoulders are relaxed. Your neck is relaxed. Your head is straight. Inhale softly and exhale softly. There is no efforts.
Slowly relax your efforts. Keep your eyes closed.
Observe the changes.
And slowly open your eyes. I hope you found it useful, you practiced along with me. So again, do this for at least 5 minutes in the morning and in the evening so that your lungs get prepared. By tomorrow, session is going to be more challenging. So I am excited to see you tomorrow. Namaste.
