Breathing Exercises for Focus

Dragon Breath is an energizing breathing exercise similar to Standing Deep Breathing Pose in hot yoga. Deep Breathing Pose is a breathing technique done at the beginning of a hot yoga class to help improve focus while practicing balancing poses.

Dragon Breath is free and takes little time, which makes it a perfect brain break during school or homework when a little extra focus and concentration is needed. It will enhance your child’s focus and wake up the mind before tackling the next assignment or task.  

Benefits of Energizing Breathing Exercises

Dragon Breath improves focus and attention. Deep breathing transfers oxygen to muscles and organs such as the brain, and nervous system priming the brain for learning. Deep breathing promotes mindfulness and overall well-being. Being a dragon enhances visualization and imagination.

What to Say

  • Interlace all 10 fingers, glue knuckles under the chin.
  • Bring elbows together.
  • Take a deep breath in.
  • Keep knuckles glued to the chin.
  • Begin floating elbows up like dragon wings by ears.
  • Tilt head back and breathe fire out through your mouth.

Breathing Exercises + Yoga Poses = More Benefits

To enhance the benefits of this energizing breathing exercise, couple Dragon Breath with a Dragon Pose or create your own Dragon Pose. Try making up a yoga pose on the ground and in the aerial hammock.
