This lesson helps you let go of muscular habits that interfere with breathing. It's not just the breath, though, it's all the hidden ways that we hold and grip throughout the ribs and trunk. By imagining the lung filling the chest cavity in many directions, the muscles become more responsive to the demands of your shape, as well as your emotional needs.
You practice meeting the external pressure with the internal pressure, feeling how the whole surface of the ribs can widen, expand, and release.
