Observation #6 : Diaphragm being pushed down
It has been Observed that while doing the slow breathing, naturally through the blocked nostril and intentionally through the open nostril, the air intake is ensured to be going to the lungs only and not towards the stomach.
Also while lungs get filled to the full, the additional air intake pushes the diaphragm down to accomodate extra air.
Hence it has been understood ho prolonged breathing (and not breathing big breaths) creates additional capacity for lungs.
Big breaths which we used to conventionally breathe were causing huge volumes of air gushing in and hence filling the food and wind pipe together .. and hence resulting in half the volume going towards stomach and lung capacity remaining the same. As well creating all sorts of complications with the air going towards stomach.
