As someone who’s been around my little sister dealing with asthma for years, I know how tough it can be when an attack hits. I’ve heard a lot about breathing exercises, like diaphragmatic breathing and pursed-lip breathing, and how they can help ease the struggle a bit. I’ve even tried a few myself, and honestly, they do make a difference in terms of calming things down when things start feeling tight. But I’ve also read that techniques like Buteyko breathing and the Papworth method are really good too.
Have any of you found certain techniques to be a game changer? I’m curious to hear from others who are managing asthma—what’s helped you breathe a little easier? I’m always looking for tips that might help my sister out even more. Would love to hear your thoughts!
