Five years ago I was that diver. 🤿
The one surfacing early, signalling “low on air”.
Every descent — shallow chest, tight ribs, fast breath.
Then I started a daily pranayama practice.
Not for diving. Just for life.
Slow breath. Full exhales. Learning to exhale completely before the next inhale.
Five years later — I come back from every dive with half a tank still full. 🌊
Same body. Same lungs. Same ocean.
Completely different breathing pattern.
Your breath is your most underrated tool — on land and at depth.
Train it on the mat first. 🧘♀️
