You breathe thousands of times every day.
So it’s worth understanding what your breath is doing to the rest of your body.
Your diaphragm doesn’t work alone.
As it moves, your rib cage changes shape, pressure changes through your abdomen and muscles around your trunk respond to help manage that pressure.
That makes breathing part of how your body organises support for movement.
And once you start noticing it, you might catch things you never thought about before.
Maybe you hold your breath when you bend. Maybe your ribs barely move when you’re sitting. Maybe you brace harder than you need to during simple tasks.
Try paying attention today without forcing anything.
Sometimes awareness is the first step towards changing how you move.
Your breath has been there your whole life. The interesting part is learning how to use it. 🫁
