How to perform the breathing exercise 'breathing control' - demonstrated by respiratory physio

In this video, specialist respiratory physiotherapist Emily, briefly demonstrates the basics of how to perform the breathing exercise 'breathing control'. This is a great starting point if you think you need to get your breathing back on track. Perhaps you have had a period of illness and are struggling with your breathing; or perhaps you're looking to optimise the way you breathe?
Have a go at this exercise and see how you get on.
Top tip - you are not trying to push your tummy out - the tummy will move slightly, but only as a consequence of the diaphragm moving!
