Overcoming the Effects of Bad Breathing
The Bragg Breathing Exercises and Healthy Lifestyle work to tone and regulate your entire body to make it healthier.

Practice Bragg Posture Exercises Every Day
Correct posture allows the chest to expand so that the lungs can be filled with air. The lungs inflate with air like millions of tiny balloons. Suction is created below by the action of the diaphragm and above by the auxiliary muscles of the chest and abdomen. This suction fills your lungs with air. The lungs themselves are passive and cannot breathe independently. The lungs wait patiently to be refilled with air. So now make it a habit to breathe deeply to help keep your lungs and body healthy.

Now blow imaginary dust from the palm. Where you feel a strong muscular contraction when blowing, that’s the location of your diaphragm, the most important muscle you use in Bragg Super Power Breathing.

With singing, just as in breathing, the diaphragm and abdomen take lead roles and this exercise will help you master their use.
