Pursed-lip breathing lying on your side

Inhale calmly and direct the breath toward the area emphasized by the exercise. Exhale without forcing while keeping the neck, shoulders and jaw relaxed. If the position is held for time, keep breathing and avoid accumulating unnecessary tension.

Avoid lifting the shoulders with every inhale and do not hold your breath unless the exercise specifically calls for it. Keep the intensity low and use a position that lets you breathe without strain.
