• Breathe in through your nose.
• Let your belly fill with the air.
• Hold your breath shortly.
• Purse your lips as if sipping through a straw and slowly breath out all of the air through your mouth whispering Whooosh! sound making exhale longer than inhale.
• As you breathe in, feel your belly rise. As you breathe out, feel your belly lower. The hand on your belly should move more than your chest.
• Breathe fully into your belly as it rises and falls with your breath.
• Try not to focus on other thoughts during practice. Instead, try and keep all attention focused only on your breath.
