Breathing Techniques to Energize

Energize And Calm Yourself In 10 Minutes. After experimenting with many pranayama's, I’ve realized One particular practice gives the best calming effect and boosts energy enough to add an extra 1–2 productive hours in your day.

It’s Vibhaag (section breathing) done for the three sections of the lungs.

Here’s why it’s different

→ Opens all lung lobes for maximum oxygen intake

→ Activates the parasympathetic nervous system, giving a deep calming effect

→ Stretches the vagus nerve, improving focus and energy

Here’s a simple guide to try it yourself

1. Lower lobe → palms parallel, fingers below ribs. Inhale 4 counts, hold 2, exhale 6, hold 2. Focus on expanding the lower lungs.

2. Middle lobe → thumb inside armpit, fingers parallel, elbow raised. Inhale 4, hold 2, exhale 6, hold 2. Expand the mid-lungs.

3. Upper lobe (my favorite!) → palms up, rotate backwards, place on upper back. Stretch, breathe deeply, and slowly exhale. Hold for 2, exhale 6, repeat.

Relax fully with hands behind your back, head down, breathing out. Feel rejuvenated. Do seven rounds and notice the difference.
