Stand straight with your feet slightly apart. Place both arms on your waist. Take a deep breath in through the nose, filling your lungs completely. Now exhale slowly and forcefully through the mouth while bending your upper body forward. The exhalation should be long and controlled, emptying the lungs as completely as possible. Return to the standing position and inhale again. Do this 10 times. Rest for a minute between sets.
Benefits: Expanded lung capacity provides essential oxygen flow to all organs in the body. The forceful exhalation helps to expel stale air and mucus from the lungs, making room for fresh oxygen. This exercise trains the respiratory muscles to work more efficiently, which is critical for managing asthma symptoms.
