About 5 years back I had chest pains that had all the symptoms of Heart Problems.
After extensive pokeing & prodding by specialists they concluded that I have a heart like a very healty horse, and that it is a permanently damaged intercostal muscle. I learned to breathe through my stomach rather than using my chest & all was good.

Annabelle when she is up for long periods wears a corset, which restricts her to breathing via her ribcage, and she never learned kung-fu (which is where I learned the breathing technique). She brethes via her chest, but takes shallow breathes so it's all good.

Just now she was up ("Fronting") and I had to take a phone call so co-fronted, and whilst talking to a customer I leaned back in my chair and streached... OW! Her breathing+deep_breaths+streatching+leaning_back=OW!

Breathing through the stomach rules all, anyway. I'm a singer, so I kinda breathe more from my stomach than my chest by default. :)

one of the others took martial arts back in the day and the stomach breathing thing became a habit.. you get alot more air in your lungs that way..

who's the person in your icon? oh I'm LeAnne!

[ash1977law.livejournal.com]

The person in my icon is me. It's a photo, though the light streaks are photoshopped in. Annabelle's icon is a photo of her taken on the same day (she wants to point out that hers is not photoshopped).

Hi LeAnne. I'm Annabelle. Pleased to meet you. I did some modeling/photoshoot a while back for a website that never actually happened (I don't think it did anyway), and our pics are from that day.

Ow. Singing lessons are good for this annabellelaw could take those. It's where we learned to breathe that way. (It does not have to be opera.) Maybe she can adjust her corset also. I keep thinking I read something on line about different ways to wear corsets so that you don't restrict your breathing. I've been trying to remember where it was ever since you posted this. Can't find it. Luck & Xmas.
