The Brussels sprouts should be brown with a bit of black on the outside when done. Any leftovers can be reheated or even just eaten cold from the fridge. I don't know how, but they taste sweet and salty at the same time!
Deep diaphragmatic breathing is the act of breathing by expanding oneâs belly and thereby allowing the diaphragm to move down creating more room for the lungs to expand. Deep breathing is marked by expansion of the abdomen rather than the chest.
To complement your regimen of sandbag breathing there are two kinds of yoga postures that are especially helpful in strengthening the diaphragm: inverted poses and twisting poses. Inverted postures place the weight of the abdominal organs on the diaphragm, so that during inhalation the diaphragm must lift them.
