A return to your whole breath—bottom to top, inside to out.

This foundational practice gently guides you to breathe fully, using the diaphragm, ribs, and upper chest in one smooth, expansive wave.

Also known as dirgha swasam (the three-part breath), this technique reconnects you to the natural depth of your breath by inviting you to:

• Inhale into the belly (diaphragm)

• Expand into the ribs (intercostals)

• Rise into the chest (clavicular)

When practiced with awareness and ease, Full Yogic Breath can:

• Repattern shallow or fragmented breathing

• Calm the nervous system and ease anxiety

• Expand lung capacity and oxygen flow

• Cultivate a sense of grounded presence

• Lay the foundation for more advanced breathwork

It’s not about forcing a “big” breath, but rediscovering the complete breath that’s already within you—layer by layer, wave by wave.

Ideal as a daily anchor, a centering pause, or a gentle reset whenever the breath feels short, high, or tense.
