Lung Cell Stimulation Exercise

Coronavirus 2019, Microthromboses, and Platelet Activating Factor -  Clinical Therapeutics

 This exercise is designed to stimulate the air cells in the lungs, but beginners must not overdo it, and in no case should it be indulged in too vigorously. Some may find a slight dizziness resulting from the first few trials, in which case let them walk around a little and discontinue the exercise for a while.

(1)    Stand erect, with hands at sides.
(2)    Breathe in very slowly and gradually.
(3)    While inhaling, gently tap the chest with the finger tips, constantly changing position.
(4)    When the lungs are filled, retain the breath and pat the chest with the palms of the hands.
(5)    Practice the Cleansing Breath.

This exercise is very bracing and stimulating to the whole body, and is a well known Yogi practice. Many of the air cells of the lungs become inactive by reason of incomplete breathing, and often become almost atrophied. One who has practiced imperfect breathing for years will find it not so easy to stimulate all these ill used air cells into activity all at once by the Complete Breath, but this exercise will do much toward bringing about the desired result, and is worth study and practice.
