Love Talk Radio. Hello everyone, it's so good to be
here as always here on the broadcast. Going to ask
(00:21):
you to be very present with me here today. Go
ahead and hit that follow button if you will before
we get started here, so that you can keep up
with what's going on here on the blog talk radio
show with me here. So we're going to talk today.
We're going to continue to talk about breath works. We're
gonna actually tweak it a little bit. Instead of continuing
(00:44):
with what we were talking about last time, We're going
to continue from the last last broadcast the very next
time because I'm going to take a pause here and
talk about something that someone asked me about on our
YouTube channel, and I'm going to answer that question here today.
(01:06):
I like to be able to talk to you guys
about things that people actually ask me about and inform
you on some things that may be of a concern
when it comes to breath work or what breath work
will do for you. How can it help you? How
can you help you? And that's what it's all about.
How can breath work work for you? And when someone
(01:30):
asked me a specific thing, I really like to talk
about it because it may not just be them that
needs that answer for that particular question. And so someone
wrote to me and asked me about how breath work
can help with their speech. And I want to say
(01:52):
this just to clear things up, there's no cookie cutter
answer to everything. I'm not a speech therapist, but I
am a breath works facilitator, and I have actually seen
how breath work can help with your speech. Because nine
(02:13):
times out of ten, when someone is having trouble speaking
in the manner that this person is talking about, they're
upset or stressed out and they just can't get those
words out. Breath works is an amazing tool to help
with that situation. Breath works will help you to calm
yourself to be able to speak in the manner that
(02:36):
you need to speak at a given time. Some people
have trouble speaking all the time because that is an
issue that they have. But even breath works, I believe
will help you. And I just challenge you to test
it out just to see if it will help you.
It's not going to hurt you, but definitely help you
in some manner. Not only does it help you know rest,
(03:00):
you know breathing, your respiratory is better when you practice
breath work. So it's going to help you one way
or the other. So how can this information help you.
I'm going to give you some examples of some exercises
to do that can help you with this situation. The
(03:25):
exercises is going to provide you with, like I said,
greater respiratory support, and it's going to help you to
be able to relax in situations that you may find.
You know, you may be finding it difficult to express yourself.
It's affecting your words. You've been able to get those
words out and to speak effectively in situations. So breathing
(03:50):
exercises are a good way to help you calm yourself
and to pace yourself so that you're able to get
those words out. So here, a good pattern of breathing
is needed to produce an effective voice in anyone in
any given situation, and this involves using that diaphragm. There's
(04:13):
a sheet of muscles found at the bottom of the
ribcage which allows the loans to expand fully. So breathing
exercises will help that to happen correctly. And these exercises
will help you to improve that breathing. And that's technique
that your body goes through when you're actually speaking and breathing.
(04:35):
So to ensure you you are able to do this correctly,
let's go ahead and practice. Make sure you're in a
comfortable position. Always want to be in that comfortable position,
so ensure that you are. We'll give you time to
do that. Okay, So you guys should be in those places,
(05:07):
the comfortable positions, you know. Always taking these exercises gently, please,
you know, and just pausing. We're going to pause between
the sections, and I'm going to do the exercises in
sections so that you can get yourself built up to
the place that you need to be so that you
can repeat these at any given time that you need to.
(05:29):
So always take your breathing exercises gently and pause in
between these sections. And if you start to feel dizzy,
you know, rest for a few moments. That's perfectly normal,
you know, rest for a minute or two, and then
start trying in again. You never have to keep up
with anyone. You always breathe at your pace, what makes
(05:54):
you comfortable. And these exercises should not be stressful. They
should be in so I want you to be enjoyed it,
relaxed and and and and help you. It'll help you
you know, to to calm even right now as you're practicing.
And so these exercises should be enjoyable and they should
(06:16):
be relaxing, and they should help you spend more time
pulling yourself down and building calm. Are you ready, guys,
let's begin. So go ahead, make sure that you're settled.
Whether you're lying on the floor or lying in the bed,
or if you're sitting well supported in a chair. Those
are the suggested positions that you should be in. If
(06:38):
you're sitting in a chair or lying down, just make
sure that you are comfortable. Rest your hands on your
stomach on the diaphragm well ahead and do that the
area above your ways before it needs to be and
(07:00):
wear the gentle inward breaths and outward movements of your breath.
Bring your awareness air to your breath. If you see that,
you could actually use a mirror to monitor the movement
and give you yourself, you know, feedback. If you're lying down,
(07:23):
make sure that you have that hand place there. You
can even place a light book on your stomach to
give you more feedback. You'll actually give you more feedback
from where your breath is coming from. To gradually exaggerate
(07:43):
the outbreaths. As you're breathing, breathe the air out using
the stomach muscles, and then let the air naturally feel
your lungs again as you're breathing back in, breathing in
and out, in and out. Monitor the movement of your
(08:06):
stomach your diaphragm as you're doing this. Make sure that
your awareness is totally with your breath. With the outbreath
of your stomach the diaphragm, notice as it moves inwards
as you breathe in the area it moves out and expands.
(08:33):
Focusing on your breath, make sure you're using your hands
to monitor the range of movement in your lore back
as well as your stomach. Make sure there's only minimal
movement in the upper chest and the shoulders. As you
(08:53):
become used to this breathing pattern, take deeper breaths. You
should steel all along, steeling more and more and more,
and then anteing completely. Can't go ahead if you're lying down,
(09:24):
Sit up? Go ahead, slowly sit up. Make sure you're
relaxed on the upright position with your back support it
for sure. Go ahead and relax your shoulders. Those of
you who are already in a sitting position. Relax your
shoulders as well. Rest your arms. It can be on
(09:51):
the side of the chair or on your sides or
on your thigh, whatever feels right for you. Just make
sure that your arms are not tightly against your rib cage.
Using small breadths only, breathe in or relaxed patterns, and
(10:14):
make sure the pattern is even bringing in and out. Next,
breathe in slowly for three seconds, palms briefly, and then
(10:37):
breathe out for three seconds. Continue to breathe in and
out in for three seconds, oh, for three seconds. During
these movements, feel the bottom of your ribcage and some
of moves out as you breathe in, and then back
(11:01):
again as you breathe out. Now return to your natural
breathing pattern and just relax. Now we're gonna change to
(11:26):
the next exercise. Continue to relax. I want you to
breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth
gently and easily. And I want you to do that
until a smooth and relax random has been established in
(11:47):
and out in through your moons, out through your mouth.
Now begin a silent count, breathing in for three and
out for three Maintain the silent count for several attempts,
(12:08):
and then begin to vary the length of the in
brest and the list of the outbreaths. Now, I want
you to breathe in for a count of two and
(12:29):
out for account of four, in for two, out for four,
and for two out for four. Continue to breathe into
two in the utter four. Continue as this becomes easier,
(12:56):
a decrease in the in bress time and in the outbrest.
Now I want you to bring in for a counter
of two, but out for a count of five, in
(13:21):
for two, out for five and for two out for five.
Continue to bring in that pattern. Now we're gonna change
(13:42):
it up just a bit more. Continue to just breathe
in for two and alpha five in the count of three.
You're gonna breathe in for two and you're gonna on
the outbreast. You're gonna use a hissing sound like and
(14:03):
for two alpha five and two op for five. Continue
to use that pani the bring any experience the belief
that you're feeling right now, experience that release has been
(14:24):
releasing it with sound. And while you're doing that, make
sure that you do not allow any tension and at
tension on the lips, on the top of its throat,
not even on the neck. It should just grow and
for two alpha five with a hipsing sound. Now go
(15:05):
ahead and take a really deep breath in and a
deep breath out. Deep breath in and out all the
way out, all the way out, and relax, returning to
(15:26):
your normal bleeding patterns. Very good. You can repeat this
exercise at least for a time to experience the result
that you would desire to experience to calm yourself. You
(15:46):
do not have to go through the whole process. So
that is an exercise that you can do almost moments.
In those moments when you're feeling stressed and you're feeling
like you immediately leads to help you to be able
to release you whether it's before speech or you're having
trouble speaking period. If you have an issue with struttering,
this will probably help you. It doesn't hurt to try,
(16:09):

this breath work to help you to release your words
in a manner that you need to. It will change
your speech. It will give you even more confidence because
you will be in control of the stress that comes
when you're in a stress of situation that may in
