Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. While paying attention to your breathing pattern, slowly work your shoulders on a cyclical motion. Now stretch your arms parallel to the ground and circle them in the air, as if to pump air inside. Stretch your ribs, inflate your thorax as much as you can. Now try to inhale longer than you exhale. Try to count 5 seconds inhaling and 3 seconds exhaling. In between, stop and hold your breath for a second or two. Try to do this for 10 cycles. When you are done, take one last deep inhaling and exhale as slowly as possible
