Abstract

Many breathing techniques in mindfulness meditation education are taught through live demonstrations or audio/video recordings. Being able to describe how to breathe through these demonstrations may seem unnecessary and self-explanatory, as breathing is an automatic process. However, many of the breathing techniques used in mindfulness education, such as thoracic or diaphragmatic breathing, require mindfulness students to have an understanding of the thoracic and abdominal muscles used during inhalation and exhalation.
