Midweek Metta - Loving-Kindness Meditation
Ein sehr gutes Video!!😊Es hilft mir besser,intensiver, zu Atmen.
Fantastic 🎉🎉🎉
Label which is inhalation and which is exhalation
No need for that. Breathe in, and feel your ribs expand. Breathe out and feel them release back down. You don't need a video to tell you when your ribs move as you breathe. Put your hands on your own ribs and feel it.
It's very effective for almost every situation. What you've heard is true. You should give it a try and see for yourself.
Such a worthwhile, effective way of treatment that addresses problem causes. I've heard good things about the Alexander Technique for decades.
The fact that our bones flex in and out all the time is beautiful. Watching it is beautiful, and the music helps. 😉
Can i use your video for a instagram video?? I will link to this page here Thank you
Yes, this is a publicly available video from its creator, Jessica Wolf. You can link to my channel (thank you!) but also please credit Jessica. www.jessicawolfartofbreathing.com/
@@amywardbrimmerWOW Thanks to you and Jessica for bringing out such educational videos. Many Thanks and wish you and everyone strength & wellness.
Ive been breathing wrong this whole time!
Beautiful helpful animation. But IMHO as a yogi, the shoulder blades should remain fixed contracted at the back in a mid-height position (relaxed) and the sternum associated with the clavicle and ribs rises up to the level of the first rib associated with the first thoracic vertebra at the back. Which is subtly indicated there, but it is not sufficient in its entirety. The full breath is made up of all three parts of the breath, the diaphragm, ribs and subclavian. I suggest to look at the chests of advanced hatha yogis. It is also very interesting that ancient Egyptian statues have absolutely amazingly shaped torsos, chests and abdomens in terms of breathing.
Nothing in the body, especially the shoulder blades, should be fixed and contracted. I suggest you take a look at the full anmated breathing video at Jessica Wolf's website.
In that case, for a full breath, you would have to move your shoulder blades back and forth, which is energetically counterproductive. A fixed scapula in the back allows the sternum to move with the far end of the clavicle and the 1st rib up. Note, I think the next, main fault is in the position of the cervical spine, the lordosis is too large, this adversely changes the angle, the inclination of the first ribs. Generally the spine is drawn nonsensically curved because there are few people who carry it naturally upright. This means the greatest relaxation against gravity. The posture is based on correct breathing and vice versa@@amywardbrimmerWOW
No doubt Allah is the best creator ❤😊
I never thought of breathing. Now i do it constantly! I also saw it has many health benefits. And air is still free for now! (2023).
This video just sent thousands of people into manual breathing mode
Subhan Allah❤
Nice video! I think it would be more accurate if the left diaphragm were smaller than the right one
Thanks for watching and for your comment. There is only one diaphragm. It is irregularly shaped, and in Jessica's longer version (not freely available), it shows this. Check out her website: www.jessicawolfartofbreathing.com/
This is so helpful!
Told bloody doctors that the six plates diagonally over my ribs was restricting my breathing.they need to look at this video.
Perfect!!!!
pw from samapti mam
Wow our lungs are actually huge
Yes they are! Let your ribs release and expand so the lungs can more easily fill with oxygen.
Finally i found a good video
For some reason on my right side my rib doesn’t expand all the way and I get a poking feeling like in my lung. I’m a college basketball player and I think it may have been from some exercise I did. Anyone know what’s going on?
Maybe rib flair or bad posture
Hello dear Amy! Thank you for sharing these three conscious breaths with us, it really made a difference when I was agitated, I could feel the power of the breath.
Cool video. Now I know more about breathing.
❤❤good
Thank you. Now I know more about breathing.
Engaging music, outstanding storytelling. Makes you want to instantly start your own breathing. Five stars!
Haha, exatcly how i felt. Thanks for the comment!
No need to "start" your breathing. It's already happening. Just tune into it. 🙂
😂😂😂😂
@@amywardbrimmerWOW That's deep. You are wise.
Fantastic
Siccck
Wow❤️🔥

Pause. 3 full breaths in through the nose and out through the mouth. Feel the feet and the support of the ground below.
