Most of us use only a fraction of our lung capacity while breathing. Many of us
put a lot of pressure on our body system unknowingly while breathing. Quick shallow
breathing results in oxygen starvation which can lead to a poor immune system, sleep
disorders, fatigue, heart diseases and also premature ageing.
