RU2276599C2 - Method for training psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious breathing control - Google Patents

Abstract

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: method comprises two stages. The first stage involves teaching a patient for respiration process biomechanics in rest and motion for carrying out conscious breathing control. Training is carried out in successive relaxing face muscles, muscles of shoulder girdle, thoracic muscles and diaphragm calling warmth and weight feeling in solar plexus region. The second stage involves proceeding to conscious breathing depth reduction feeling general organism warming and warmth and weight in solar plexus region. The patient remains in this state until muscle relaxation and peace of mind comes. The attention is concentrated over supporting light air shortage feeling with rising warmth, pricking sensation and withdrawing pain syndrome in the organ under treatment.

EFFECT: wider set of human psycho-emotional self-regulation means.

Description

The invention relates to therapeutic gymnastics, in particular, respiratory organs for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes and can be widely used in medicine to treat and improve the general condition of the human body.

A known method of psychophysiological self-regulation, described in p. RF №2063248

"Method for the correction of psychosomatic dysfunctions" according to cl. A 61 M 21/00, c. 09/15/94, op. 07/10/96.

A known method is as follows.

The psychotherapeutic program is composed taking into account a representative system of patient information perception. At the beginning of the treatment session, deprivation of vision is carried out, the breathing rhythm is established with an extended expiratory phase of the respiratory cycle, after which the patient is brought into a state of light trance, psychotherapeutic information is presented, and the semantic emphasis of the suggestion formula is combined with the expiratory phase of the patient’s respiratory cycle, and when the patient is withdrawn from trance states switch his attention to another channel of information, which ensures amnesia of the introduced psychotherapeutic program.

The disadvantage of this method is that it is very inefficient.

A known method of psychophysical self-healing of a person, described in the eponymous s. RF №2001108289 by class A 61 B 5/16, A 61 H 1/00, A 61 M 21/00, c. 03/29/01, op. 02/27/03.

The known method includes performing seven static and breathing exercises of hatha yoga (such as full breath of yogis standing or sitting, breathing "stretching", breathing "vertical" or "horizontal swings", breathing "mill" or "strengthening nerves"), a set exercises of muscular-articular gymnastics, seven sets of prayers of various religions and five mantras with the development of each subsequent complex after mastering the previous one.

The disadvantage of this method is the complexity of its implementation, not available to every patient.

A known method of regulating the emotional state is described in the same patent of the Russian Federation No. 2135223 according to class. A 61 M 21/00, c. 11/03/98, op. 08/27/99.

The known method is aimed at expanding the emotional and mental state due to the alternation of rhythmic hyperventilation of respiratory cycles with hypoxic pauses (breath holding) and consists in the following.

The method of regulating the emotional state is carried out by means of a rhythmic deep breathing course carried out by sessions in which rhythmic breathing is alternated with delays at the exit, the delay time is determined by the appearance of significant discomfort during relaxation, the number of respiratory movements between breath delays during each session is first increased from once to three to ten, then gradually reduce to 30-39% of the maximum number reached, after which their number is again increased to 60 -70% and reduced to the initial values, and during the session they carry out a suggestive effect aimed at relaxation and stabilization, the course includes from 2 to 7 such sessions per week, and the duration of the course is from 1 to 3 months.

The disadvantage of this method is that it uses deep breathing, leading to excessive removal of carbon dioxide from the body, which causes a protective reaction of the body in the form of a narrowing of its release channels and oxygen starvation of the body, as well as a shift in the internal environment to the alkaline side.

Closest to the technical nature of the claimed is a method of regulating the emotional-mental state described in the book Buteyko K.P. "Buteyko method. Experience of implementation in medical practice.", Kiev-Moscow-Novosibirsk. M .: Patriot, 1990, p.148-149, and selected as a prototype. A known method is as follows.

The patient is explained the harm of deep breathing, then a test is carried out to the depth of the patient’s breathing, with a positive test, the organ system most affected by deep breathing is determined, then, by measuring the control, volitional and maximum pause in holding the breath, the level of carbon dioxide in the lungs and the patient’s will index are determined and the patient is trained to gradually decrease the volitional depth of breath by relaxing the diaphragm until a feeling of lack of air appears and this feeling is constantly kept at otyazhenii entire workout while mastering the patient elements of the theory of deep breathing of the patient's disease and teach the use of volitional elimination of deep breathing (VEDB) at the onset of symptoms and satisfactory condition.

The disadvantage of this method is that it is not very effective, because It gives a rather large percentage of relapses, since breathing exercises are focused only on eliminating deep breathing, leading to carbon dioxide deficiency, without understanding the biomechanics of breathing and the physiological norm of conscious breathing regulation in terms of controlling the respiratory muscles.

The objective of the invention is to increase the efficiency of the method.

The problem is solved in that in the method of psychophysiological self-regulation on the basis of conscious breathing regulation, which consists in explaining to the patient the harm of deep breathing, then a test is carried out to the patient’s breathing depth, with a positive test, the organ system most affected by deep breathing is determined, then measuring the control pause in holding the breath, determine the level of carbon dioxide in the lungs and conduct patient training to gradually reduce the depth of breathing by relaxing aphrams until the sensation of lack of air and the constant maintenance of this sensation throughout the training session while the patient is mastering the elements of the theory of the disease of deep breathing and teach the patient how to eliminate deep breathing when the symptoms of the disease appear and in satisfactory condition, ACCORDING TO THE INVENTION, the method is carried out in two stages: First, they master the conscious regulation of breathing, and then on its basis they master the psychophysiological self-regulation, while for By creating conscious breathing regulation, the patient is explained by the biomechanics of the breathing process at rest and during movement, and they are taught during training to consciously control the respiratory muscles, successively relaxing the muscles of the face, upper shoulder girdle, upper pectoral muscles and diaphragm, until the additional physiological effects of this regulation are practically achieved: general feelings warming up the body and sensations of heat and heaviness in the solar plexus, and the development of psychophysiological self-regulation begins with a short about acquaintance with the anatomy and physiology of the body, gradually, studying at each lesson that organ system with which health work is to be performed, then they go on to consciously reduce the depth of breathing with the achievement of the above effects of its regulation and are in this state until muscle relaxation and complete mental rest further divide the attention directed to the regulation of respiration, leaving a part of attention on the relaxation of the diaphragm and maintaining the feeling of lack of air, and the other part directing on the organ with which psychic interaction will take place, until three psychophysiological effects are achieved - the sensation of the presence of an organ in the body, as confirmation of the formed psychophysiological connection, the sensation of increased blood circulation in the organ due to the mental expansion of blood vessels, an increase in blood flow to it, which should be confirmed by the appearance warmth and tingling in the organ, and relieving the sensation of a painful syndrome in a healthy organ.

The meaning of psychophysiological self-regulation is mental, i.e. the mental impact of a person on the organs of his body with the aim of their natural healing and restoration of their normal functioning.

The use of conscious breathing regulation opens up a new opportunity for highly effective psychophysiological self-regulation, since allows you to create a stable neurophysiological connection between consciousness and the subconscious level of regulation of internal organs.

This can be explained as follows.

According to neurophysiology, an increase in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the blood, occurring with a decrease in the depth of breathing during its conscious regulation, increases the production of acetylcholine in interneuron synapses, which facilitates the passage of nerve impulses from organs to centers of autonomic innervation, and vice versa. Therefore, with an increase in the level of carbon dioxide in the blood and maintaining consciousness, the possibility of active interaction between the central, peripheral and intraorgan parts of the nervous system of the body appears, i.e. that bridge between the psyche and physiology arises, which gives a person the opportunity to form direct and feedback with the world of internal organs and physiological systems.

The involvement of conscious breathing regulation in psychophysiological self-regulation has two more indisputable advantages:

- in the process of conscious regulation of respiration, oxygen consumption by tissues increases and accordingly the formation of energy in them increases, which increases the mental potential of the nervous system and provides the organs with energy necessary for healing;

- conscious regulation of breathing restores gas balance, acid-base and physiological balance and heals the body as a whole, which enhances the effectiveness of psychophysiological self-regulation and allows you to get a potentized healing effect. Therefore, the implementation of self-regulation in series in two stages - the development of conscious regulation of breathing, as described above, and the subsequent implementation on its basis of psychophysiological self-regulation, carried out in the above manner, in the aggregate significantly increases the efficiency of the method

Compared with the prototype, the claimed method of psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious regulation of breathing has a novelty, differing from it by such essential features as the implementation of self-regulation in series in two stages: mastering conscious regulation of breathing with an explanation to the patient of the biomechanics of the breathing process at rest and during movement, learning during training conscious control of the respiratory muscles with successive relaxation of the muscles of the face, upper shoulder girdle, upper chest muscles muscles and diaphragms to the practical achievement of additional physiological effects of this regulation: the sensation of general warming up of the body and the sensation of warmth and heaviness, and the subsequent development on its basis of psychophysiological self-regulation with a brief introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the healing organ systems and division of attention during regulation into two parts - parts for breathing, parts for regulating the organ until the above effects are achieved, which together provide the desired result.

Although some of the distinguishing features regarding actions to perform conscious regulation of breathing are known from Section 2225188 of the Russian Federation, their use alone does not produce such an effect, and the use in combination with other distinguishing features, ensuring the achievement of a given result, is from the prior art it is not known, therefore, the applicant believes that the claimed method meets the criterion of "inventive step".

The inventive method of psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious regulation of respiration can be widely used in medical practice, and therefore meets the criterion of "industrial applicability".

The inventive method of psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious regulation of breathing is as follows.

Mastering the method is carried out sequentially in two stages: first, they master the conscious regulation of breathing, and then, on its basis, they master the psychophysiological self-regulation. Moreover, for the implementation of conscious regulation of breathing, the patient is explained the harm of deep breathing and the biomechanics of the breathing process in a state of rest and movement. Conduct a test to the depth of breath of the patient. With a positive test, the organ system most affected by deep breathing is determined. Next, a control pause in the breath holding is measured, the level of carbon dioxide in the lungs is determined. The patient is trained to gradually consciously reduce the depth of breathing by consciously controlling the respiratory muscles, successively relaxing the muscles of the face, upper shoulder girdle, upper pectoral muscles and diaphragm, until the three physiological effects of this regulation are practically achieved: a feeling of lack of air, a feeling of general warming of the body and a feeling of warmth and gravity in the solar plexus. They teach the conscious elimination of deep breathing when the symptoms of the disease appear and in a satisfactory condition.

Having mastered the method of conscious regulation of breathing, they begin to psychophysiological self-regulation, which begins with a brief introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the body, gradually studying at each lesson that organ system with which to improve the work. Then they go on to consciously reduce the depth of breathing with the achievement of the above effects of its regulation and are in such a state until muscle relaxation and complete mental rest appear. Further, attention is directed to the regulation of respiration: part of the attention is devoted to relaxing the diaphragm and maintaining a feeling of lack of air, the other part is directed to the organ with which psychic interaction will take place until three psychophysiological effects are achieved: sensation of the presence of the organ in the body, as confirmation of the formed psychophysiological connection, sensation of increased blood circulation in the body due to the mental expansion of blood vessels and an increase in blood flow to it, which should be confirmed by Heat phenomenon and tingling in the body and removing the painful sensations syndrome organ heals.

In practice, the method of psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious regulation of breathing is carried out in two stages and proceeds as follows.

Stage I - the development of conscious regulation of respiration.

At the first stage, the patient is explained the harm of deep breathing, consisting in excessive removal of carbon dioxide from the body, causing a protective reaction of the body in the form of a narrowing of its release channels and oxygen starvation of the body, and leading to a shift in the internal environment to the alkaline side, which disrupts metabolism. Then, the patient is explained the biomechanics of the breathing process, saying that two types of external respiration are distinguished: breathing at rest and breathing at rest or in a state of stress, which differ in the degree of inclusion of the respiratory muscles in the work. Breathing at rest is characterized by the fact that only intercostal muscles are involved in the work, which is practically not visible during external observation. With a slight movement or light physical activity, the diaphragm is included in the work, with a significant increase in the load, the upper pectoral muscles, and with overloads, the muscles of the upper shoulder girdle. The patient is also advised that since the respiratory muscles are simultaneously also the motor muscles, like all motor muscles, they need to be consciously accustomed to them through training to semi-automatic correct work, i.e. shallow breathing during rest or movement. The patient is forced to sit on a chair or stool, placing it with the angle between the legs, free the tailbone and straighten the spine. Hands should lie on your knees, legs should rest on tables, heels should be in contact, and socks should be divorced. The head should be in line with the spine. This posture should not strain, but its preservation keeps a person in need to feel the body and its external parts, i.e. includes the necessary level of consciousness for further actions.

Next, a control breath pause (COP) is measured in seconds by holding the breath after a normal exhalation. With independent studies, the use of a stopwatch or watch is undesirable. You need to learn the internal count of seconds.

Then begins the relaxation of the muscles of the face, shoulder girdle, diaphragm and a slight lack of air is formed. Next, a sensation of warming up the body is achieved and attention is concentrated in the solar plexus until sensation of heat and gravity in this zone. In this condition, you need to be until the appearance of general muscle relaxation and mental peace. Breathing exercises are carried out repeatedly, each time for 20-30 minutes with constant awareness of their actions and the maintenance of all three therapeutic moments.

After each training session, using the stopwatch measured with a stopwatch, until there is a slight lack of air, the level of carbon dioxide in the lungs is re-determined to determine the effectiveness of the session. The delay pause each time should increase by 4-6 or more seconds, increasing during training to 20-30 or even 40 seconds.

The effectiveness of the lesson is measured by a change in efficiency before and after training.

To train the conscious regulation of breathing, three collective exercises in a group of 3 to 7 people are enough.

Stage II - the development of psychophysiological self-regulation on its basis.

The development of psychophysiological self-regulation begins with a brief introduction to the anatomy and physiology of the body. This is done gradually, at each next lesson, they study the system with which health work is ahead. Then they go on to consciously reduce the depth of breathing with the achievement of the above effects of its regulation and are in such a state until muscle relaxation and complete mental rest appear.

The next action consists in dividing the attention directed to the regulation of breathing, part of the attention is left on relaxing the diaphragm and maintaining a feeling of lack of air, the other part is directed to the organ with which psychic interaction will take place.

Psychophysiological self-regulation requires the mandatory achievement of three psychophysiological effects:

- sensations of the presence of an organ in the body, as a confirmation of the formed psychophysiological connection;

- sensations of increased blood circulation in the body due to the mental expansion of blood vessels and an increase in blood flow to it. This should be confirmed by the appearance of heat and tingling in the organ. This action enhances nutrition, energy supply and natural cleansing of the body;

- a feeling of normalization of the function of the diseased organ: the disappearance of pain, tension and spasms in the organ or the achievement of a sense of peace and comfort in the organ. This mental effort allows you to break the pathological connections of the nervous regulation of organs that have caused the formation of autonomic neuroses, or become an effective means of their prevention.

The mental effect on the organ can be enhanced by the following methods:

- mental stimulation of its natural function;

- using elements of creative imagination that predetermines and enhances the course of natural healing.

Examples of such effects include:

- increased production of hormones by the cells of the endocrine glands;

- resorption of scar and tumor tissues, emptying of cystic formations, dissolution of stones and removal of salts from joints, etc.

In this case, it is necessary that the mental effect on the organ corresponds to the course of physiological and morphological processes of healing and does not exceed the body's natural capabilities. Neglecting the data of modern science on the functioning of the human body contains the danger of complete deregulation in its work and the appearance of severe neurotic and mental states. In order to prevent such phenomena, the necessary collective and individual educational work is carried out.

In the process of mastering the method, the patient must fully study the internal structure of his body and learn to consciously regulate all its functions and organs.

Maximum effort and time is devoted to working with a diseased organ or functionally maladaptive system.

During one lesson, they work with organs belonging to one functional system. The lesson lasts 30-40 minutes, while there is always a feeling of lack of air and heat in the body. The lesson ends with a second measurement of efficiency, which should increase by 4-6 or more seconds.

After class, you need to maintain awareness of breathing and a slight lack of air. This allows you to extend the process of healing organs, as evidenced by the preservation of heat in them up to 1.5-2 hours after class.

The full development of the method requires eight training sessions. Further, the patient continues to work on healing independently with an analysis of the results of self-healing and entering them into an individual diary of self-observation. Within a year after mastering the method, patients are actively monitored. As a rule, patients who began to engage in psychophysiological self-regulation continue it after this period. In the process of group work, relations of responsibility are formed not only for oneself, but also for the team as a whole, which helps to overcome joint moments of fatigue and frustration at work.

In the process of health improvement, constant conscious regulation of breathing is achieved, which is the main condition for maintaining health and the basis for the prevention of relapse of the disease.

The developed method has been used in practice for 5 years. The following results of restoration and improvement of health from its change are achieved:

- the disappearance of chronic nervous tension, fatigue, insomnia, improved memory;

- the disappearance of pain and the restoration of normal mobility and flexibility of the spine in osteochondrosis;

- improvement of posture and the disappearance of scoliotic spinal deformity in children with scoliosis of the I-II degree;

- restoration of joint mobility and the disappearance of pain in them with arthritis;

- restoration of nasal breathing in chronic nasal congestion, sinusitis, adenoids of the I-II degree;

- restoration of cerebral circulation and the disappearance of headaches in patients with cerebral atherosclerosis, VVD and migraine;

- restoration of coronary circulation and the disappearance of heart pain in coronary heart disease with angina pectoris of tension and rest;

- drug-free normalization of high and low blood pressure;

- restoration of normal heart rhythm with tachycardia and bradycardia;

- restoration of the drainage function of the bronchi and the elimination of chronic bronchopulmonary processes;

- the disappearance of heartburn, belching, pain and cramping in the stomach;

- elimination of spasms in the intestines and constipation;

- epithelialization of ulcers or peptic ulcer of the stomach and duodenum;

- restoration of normal kidney function in chronic glomerulonephritis;

- elimination of pain and tension in the prostate and restoration of potency;

- the disappearance of recurrent ovarian cysts and the normalization of the menstrual cycle;

- a significant decrease in fibromatous nodes in the uterus;

- complete resorption of diffuse mastopathy;

- the elimination of hyperglycemia in type II diabetes mellitus with the abolition of drugs;

- restoration of adrenal function and the abolition of hormones in hormone-dependent forms of bronchial asthma;

- restoration of thyroid function with its hypo- and hyperfunction, the abolition of hormones and hormone synthesis inhibitors;

- Improving blood circulation in the lower extremities, eliminating pain and intermittent claudication with obliterating endoarthritis;

- epithelialization of trophic ulcers of the lower extremities with varicose veins and obliterating atherosclerosis;

- elimination of itching and restoration of normal skin with neurodermatitis and allergic dermatitis.

This list should be supplemented with those changes in the human mind that can be called gaining hope, faith in oneself, an understanding of justice and grace in the highest sense of these words.

These changes are especially pronounced in families where children are sick. Teaching children psychophysiological self-regulation is carried out in individual lessons together with parents. This takes into account their age, overall development and understanding.

Contraindications for mastering the method are a decrease in intelligence, mental illness with impaired criticism, illness in the stage of decompensation, cancer without the supervision and treatment of an oncologist, acute infectious diseases, skepticism about the possibilities of natural healing and the patient’s lack of discipline.

Clinical examples

1. Patient P., 41 years old. DS: peptic ulcer. Chronic prostatitis, impotence. Carcinophobia, astheno-depressive syndrome. Sick for 3 years. Complaints of heartburn, belching sour, pain in the stomach, pain and tension in the prostate, difficulty urinating. For 2 years, erectile function was impaired, and therefore left the family and lives with his mother. Over the past year, he lost 10 kg, there was a fear of cancer. General condition oppressed, skin with an earthy tint. With a height of 175 cm, the weight is 57 kg.

He sleeps poorly, smokes a lot and cannot reduce smoking. It takes almagel, drugs that suppress gastric secretion, antispasmodics. On FGS - in the area of great curvature of the stomach, two ulcers 1.5 × 2.0 and 1.5 × 1 cm in size, the mucous membrane is loose, swollen.

In the 1st lesson of efficiency - 4 sec. Within a week, he learned to relieve pain in the stomach and prostate in the manner described above, and canceled the medication. Mental epithelization of ulcers, mental massage of the prostate by emptying it from a stagnant secretion is recommended.

By the end of the second week of classes, the efficiency increased to 12 seconds, heartburn and belching disappeared. After training, thick mucus is secreted from the urethra. The sleep normalized, he began to understand that the fear of a tumor in the stomach had no foundation. Then there was an aversion to cigarette smoke, which helped to significantly reduce smoking while maintaining a desire to smoke. Appetite appeared. By the end of the month of classes, the general symptomatology of diseases disappeared, for the first time in many years, I began to feel the joy of life. After 3 months of training, it reached an efficiency of 20 seconds, the erectile function was restored, but does not want to return to the family, because realized that the real cause of ill health was chronic stress from constant conflict with his wife and her family. Engaged in this way 2 times a day, constantly aware of breathing. Stopped smoking.

After 6 months, efficiency = 24 seconds, on FGS - ulcer epithelization without cicatricial deformities of the mucosa. Symptoms of prostate disease have disappeared. After a year, efficiency = 28-30 sec. He believes that in his youth he did not feel healthier than now. He gained weight and increased it to 80 kg with dumbbell exercises. Constantly aware of breathing, continues to engage in a method of self-regulation in order to stimulate the work of all internal organs in order to ensure active longevity.

2. Patient M., 57 years old. DS: varicose veins of the lower extremities, thrombophlebitis of superficial veins. Trophic ulcer on the anterior surface of the lower leg on the right. Allergic dermatitis. Hypertension II B Art.

Vein expansion began after 40 years, there were repeatedly exacerbations of thrombophlebitis, after which a trophic ulcer was formed that did not heal for 2 years. Concerned about severe itching of the skin on the legs, tension and pain in the right lower leg. The skin on the lower leg is cyanotic, thinned. In the region of the lower third, there is a ulcerative surface measuring 10 × 5 cm, weeping. Does not remove tight dressings, as pain intensifies. Uses ointment with heparin and vitamin healing creams, constantly takes aspirin, antihypertensives and sedatives, sleeping pills.

On examination, she is very tense, constantly crying, feels lonely, although she lives with her husband. When measuring I efficiency = 6 sec. During the first week, the efficiency increased to 10 seconds, the tension and itching in the limbs decreased. The dream recovered, calmed down internally. Mental epithelization of the skin, restoration of venous vessels patency, and strengthening of the vascular walls of the veins are recommended.

After a month of regular classes in the described way of self-regulation, epithelization of the ulcer surface began. She stopped taking aspirin and sedatives, trying to remove the rises in blood pressure in the named way. After three months, the efficiency = 20 seconds, does not take medicine. The skin on the limbs acquired a natural color, in the area of the ulcer complete epithelization. After 1 year of classes, she feels healthy, makes friends with former patients, does not consider herself lonely.

3. Patient K., 38 years old. DS: uterine fibroids 4-6 weeks, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, bilateral diffuse mastopathy, VVD, depressive syndrome.

Appealed about severe depression associated with progressive ill health. Registered and conservative treatment by a gynecologist for 2 years. There are no improvements. Curettage of the uterine cavity was carried out three times in connection with heavy bleeding during menstruation. Before menstruation, chest pain; engorgement and mild watery discharge from the nipples. Constantly headache, heavy obsessive thoughts about death.

On ultrasound, there is a fibromatous node in the uterine body with a tendency to grow into the uterine cavity. In blood tests - mild anemia. Accepts iron preparations, sedatives. When measuring I efficiency = 4 sec. During the first week, the efficiency increased to 10 seconds, calmed down internally, controls the mental state and does not allow heavy thoughts. Headaches decreased, sleep improved. A mental massage of the mammary glands with their release from congestion, mental resorption of the intrauterine node is recommended.

After 2 weeks of training, Efficiency = 10 seconds, feels constant heat in the chest, headaches disappeared, realized her condition and realized that she could restore health without surgical intervention. By the end of the month, the efficiency = 12 sec, before the monthly pain in the chest there was no, but the engorgement remains. Menstruation was plentiful, but shorter.

After 6 months of training, efficiency = 20 sec. The normal mental state was restored, pain in the mammary glands disappeared, menstruation was plentiful, but in terms of time they were approaching normal (6-7 days).

After 1 year, an ultrasound scan did not detect a fibromatous node; upon examination, the body of the uterus is somewhat compacted and enlarged. There is no engorgement of the glands before menstruation. Considers herself healthy, continues to study in the described way of self-regulation. Efficiency = 26 sec.

Compared with the prototype of the claimed method of psychophysiological self-regulation based on conscious regulation of breathing is more effective.
