Part 3/8:
Naveen introduces abdominal breathing, also referred to as sectional breathing. Participants are guided to consciously engage their abdomen during this technique: expanding the belly during inhalation and contracting it towards the spine during exhalation. This practice not only enhances the connection between breath and core but also aids in digestion and metabolism.
Participants are advised to maintain a straight back, utilizing support beneath the hips if necessary, and to aim for a full minute of practice—this timeframe is adjustable according to individual capacity. The key takeaway after completing this breathing technique is the increased awareness of relaxation and stimulation in the abdominal area, crucial for initiating the subsequent practices.
