Relearn How To Breathe<\/strong><\/p>\n

Do this exercise five times a day and you’ll start thinking and performing better in no time:<\/p>\n

1. Inhale deeply<\/p>\n

2. Exhale with a short burst (as if blowing out a candle). This helps activate your diaphragm, which most people don’t use.<\/p>\n

3. Exhale with a long, slow finish to empty the lungs. Breathlessness comes from not expelling enough CO2.<\/p>\n

4. Inhale, filling your lungs from the bottom to the top, instead of taking short sips. Most use a third of their lung capacity.<\/p>\n

5. Hold for a moment to allow oxygen to saturate the cells.<\/p>\n

6. Exhale slowly and completely.<\/p>\n

7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 for five minutes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
