NOTE

Breathe Deeply, Live Fully

Breathing patterns significantly impact health, particularly for individuals with poor posture resulting from prolonged sitting. This leads to restricted thoracic mobility and reliance on neck muscles for respiration, causing tension and chronic pain. Effective breathing is essential for oxygen flow and muscle recovery, making it a priority in health assessments. Regularly checking and enhancing breathing techniques can prevent injuries during physical activity, often misattributed to strength training itself. Additionally, adopting good movement habits and taking breaks from prolonged sitting can improve overall well-being, emphasizing that motion is vital to health. Awareness of one's breathing is crucial, as many may not realize they are in a state of shallow breathing, impacting their physical health.
