This puts them at risk for<br \/>\ndust, pollution as well as respiratory infections and we should protect them by<br \/>\npracticing good hygiene. Even in the yogic sense the lungs are the primary<br \/>\norgans that help us to control and augment the &#8220;life&#8221; or universal<br \/>\nlife-giving energy. This is why the practice of yoga breathing is called<br \/>\npranayama.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p><ins\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-8055836552951810\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"1426923622\"><\/ins><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt;\">These methods improve overall<br \/>\nhealth, give us greater vitality, manage stress and increase our immunity.<br \/>\nNowadays, pranayama exercises have become particularly relevant because<br \/>\nCOVID-19 is a respiratory infection that attacks our lungs. So, in addition to<br \/>\nrelentlessly practicing preventive measures such as washing our hands, wearing<br \/>\nmasks, and social distance, we should also work on interventions that can keep<br \/>\nthe lungs healthy and vigorous.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><b><span style=\"color: #212529;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Here are a<br \/>\nfew ways to strengthen your lungs:<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-outline-level: 4;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Practice Surya Namasakra (Sun Salutations)<\/span><\/span><b><span style=\"font-size: 13.5pt;\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\">Surya Namaskar is a sequence of 12 yoga<br \/>\nexercises that you practice in coordination with breathing. Thus, it is a<br \/>\ndynamic combination of pranayama and asana and benefits both of us. More<br \/>\nimportantly, in Surya&nbsp;&nbsp;Namaskar, you alternatively give a great<br \/>\nextension to the spine and chest with forward and backward bending movements,<br \/>\ntracheal prescribed patterns, improve overall oxygenation levels and strengthen<br \/>\nthe respiratory muscles. Throughout medical studies, sun salutations have been<br \/>\nshown to improve breathing ability and resilience tolerance as it improves our<br \/>\nrespiration and respiratory capacity.<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background-color: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt;\">If you aim to practice 6-12 rounds of<br \/>\nSurya Namaskar during the day at medium speed, it would be best which one round<br \/>\nincludes both right and left side.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><b><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Adham Pranayama (Deep Belly Breathing or<br \/>\nDiaphragmatic Breathing)<\/span><\/span><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\">It is an initial respiratory tract that<br \/>\nhelps us to correct our breathing patterns. To do this exercise, you bend your<br \/>\nknees and lie on your back and place one hand on the abdomen, above the navel.<br \/>\nYou then inhale through the nose to draw air into the deepest region of the<br \/>\nlungs. As the lungs expand with air they push the diaphragm, which pushes out<br \/>\nthe abdomen. You will notice that your abdominal arms will expand when you<br \/>\nbreathe. And then you can breathe normally<o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\"><b><i><br \/><\/i><\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4 style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: left;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\"><b><i>Variations<\/i><\/b><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\"><i>DEEP BELLY BREATHING<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\"><\/span><\/p>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/yogadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/image-1-1.png\" style=\"margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" data-original-height=\"322\" data-original-width=\"762\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/yogadda.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/image-1-1.png\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<p style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><span style=\"background: white; color: #212529; font-size: 13.5pt; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-language: HI; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: &quot;Times New Roman&quot;;\">2) Prone to breathing: You can practice<br \/>\ndry breathing while lying down (with your head down) and keeping your head back<br \/>\non the palm of your hand like a crocodile (<b>crocodile posture<\/b>).

This gives the lungs more time to<br \/>\nexchange air, which increases the overall efficiency of the breathing process,<br \/>\nand we should also note that reducing stress and anxiety is also a major<br \/>\npositive effect of this exercise. The lungs are very sensitive to stress and<br \/>\nanxiety, in particular, it can make you breathe, make you feel short of breath<br \/>\nor feel tight in the chest.
