Lets talk about one of the most important thing in living beings, breathing. 

Well, i think everyone knows about it but still lets define it. Breathing is the transfer of air in and out of our lungs for gas exchange with our inner organs, primarily to flush out carbon dioxide and take in oxygen for metabolism of our body. 

70% of waste is excreted from the lungs. Most of our lives we have not been taught the importance of proper breathing. Most of us breathe in a very shallow manner, which not only hinders waste excretion, but also hinders our intake of oxygen. More conscious and connected breathing is one of the best ways to let go of more waste, gain a boost of energy , and gain much more mental clarity.

In our school years, we have learned all about its mechanism like inspiration, expiration, cellular respiration and many more. So now we will discuss a bit about some problems that hurts some people and some techniques that might help us breath even better

EMOTIONS.

Breathing patterns can change according to our moods. For example, when you are anxious, you tend to lose your regular breath and hyperventilate.

PHYSIQUE 

Your physical body and health also affects your breathing. As when you have less fat percentage, it is easier to breath but if your body has more fat, you are overweight and it would weigh your body down and effect your breathing pattern. 

DISORDERS

There are a lot of disorders that effect our internal processes mostly related to lungs like Asthma, cystic fibrosis, etc. And you will need some medical equipments to stabilize your health.
