Have a Fresh breath

Have you paid attention to the way you breathe?probably not.And if you've taken breathing for granted,you are unlikely to know what harm faulty breathing can cause.People are not aware of their own breathing pattern.Pranayama is a way of bringing that awareness however,to know the correct method of breathing you need to seek guidance from an expert.if you don't have any major health complications,you can breathe normally,like you always do.But if you have contraindications like BP or diabetes,thyroid problems etc,you could seek advice from a yoga expert how to control your health condition through breathing .
Take long ,slow breaths,breath through your nose,using your disphragn,not stomach,dont fill your stomach,don't fill your stomach while air.become aware of the rhythm of your breathing .
Breath normally during a cardio workout,but while using gym equipment,you must exhale when you exert and inhale when you push,do crunches or lift weights and inhale when you return to star position.never hold your breath for too long while exercising,for that can cause a valsalva manoeuvre .if you've held your breath for long it's time to exhale and take things easy
