Diaphragmatic breathing

This is also known as belly breathing:

• Relax your shoulders and sit back or lie down.
• Place one hand on your belly and one on your chest.
• Inhale through your nose for 2 seconds, feeling the air move into your abdomen and feeling your stomach move out. Your stomach should move more than your chest does.
• Breathe out for 2 seconds through pursed lips while pressing on your abdomen.
• Repeat.
