Lifestyle News Desk: Sitting at one place for a long time has increased the risk of overdose. A lot of work had to be done in the office, but in such a situation, the amount of hard work that was required to travel is not being done now. Staring at a computer screen causes pain in the neck, back, waist and various parts of the body. Also, with age, pain starts appearing in different parts of the body. Do you often take painkillers to get rid of pain? But these are not good for the body at all. There is another way to reduce pain, that is to do breathing exercises. Here are some such breathing exercises.
diaphragmatic breathing technique
This is also called ‘belly breathing’. In the case of this breathing exercise, the diaphragm, abdominal and lower abdominal muscles should be used simultaneously. This exercise relaxes the muscles and reduces pain. This exercise also helps in reducing fatigue and anxiety. Lie on your back on the floor. Then place a pillow under your head and knees. Loosen the shoulder muscles. Now place one hand on the navel and the other hand on the chest. Breathe through the nose for 2 seconds. Feel the air move through the stomach and into the lower abdomen. Now round the lips and expel all the air for 2 seconds with the help of abdominal muscles.
4-6-7 breathing technique
This is also called ‘relaxing breathing’. It relaxes the muscles of different parts of the body. Sit comfortably on a chair. Place both hands near the lower abdomen. Now hold your breath for 4 seconds through your nose for 4 seconds. Then exhale slowly through the mouth for 7 seconds. This breathing exercise relieves pain, reduces stress and improves sleep.
balancing breathing technique
This is also called ‘equal breathing’. Sit comfortably in a quiet environment with one leg crossed over the other. Now close your eyes. Now breathe slowly through the nose for 4 minutes. Hold your breath for a few seconds. Exhale slowly again for 4 minutes. Do this breathing exercise 5-10 times.
