Respiration can be classified into four types which are
Claricular breathing, Intercostal breathing,
Diaphragmatic breathing and Pranayamic breathing.
1. High or Claricular breathing - In this type of
breathing, the relevant muscles in the neck mainly
activate the top parts of the lungs.
2. Intercostal or Mid breathing - In this type of
breathing only the central parts of the lungs are
activated.
3. Low or Diaphragmatic breathing - In this type
of breathing, the lower portions of the lung are
activated mainly while the top and contrail portions
remain less active.
4. Pranayamaic breathing - In this type of
breathing, the entire lungs are used to their fullest
capacity. |
