Deep Breathing: Inhale deeply through your nose, expanding your diaphragm, and exhale slowly through your mouth to increase lung capacity.
Diaphragmatic Breathing: Practice breathing from your diaphragm rather than shallow chest breathing, promoting efficient oxygen exchange.
Pursed Lip Breathing: Inhale through your nose for two counts, then exhale through pursed lips for four counts, helping to release trapped air and reduce breathlessness.
Lung Exercises with Resistance: Use a resistance device to strengthen respiratory muscles, enhancing lung function and endurance.
Interval Training: Incorporate short bursts of high-intensity exercise, like brisk walking or cycling, to challenge your lungs and improve cardiovascular health.
Yoga and Tai Chi: Engage in these mindful practices to enhance lung capacity, flexibility, and overall respiratory health.
Aerobic Exercise: Regular aerobic activities, such as swimming or jogging, can improve lung efficiency and boost cardiovascular fitness.
Stay Hydrated: Proper hydration thins mucus, making it easier to clear from your airways, supporting respiratory health.
