Good day friends and to all my fellow steemians.
- MENTAL ASPECTS.

Brain cells have a high rate of metabolism, so the brain requires much more oxygen, relatively, than any other organ of the body. The common advice when stressed is to take a deep breath; to supply the brain with sufficient oxygen. A lack oxygen means loss of mental balance, concentration, and control of the emotions.
MENTAL BENEFITS OF PROPER BREATHING.
Improved concentration and greater clarity of thought.
Increased ability to deal with complex situations without suffering from stress.
Better emotional control and equilibrium.
Improve physical control and coordinations.

The brain controls the opposite sides of the body. The two halves of the brain have specific functions and deal with different aspects of our lives. These lists show some of the characteristics of the two halves. Yogic breathing exercise help to keep the two sides of the brain in balance.

Proper breathing demands a three-part movement. Firstly, the diaphragm causes the abdomen to expand, filling the lower lungs. Secondly, the intercostals muscles expand the ribcage and fill the middle lungs, and finally, the collar bones lift, bringing air into the top part of the lungs.
