I don't know if you remember the scene where he was with Bruce Banner, and then he started sitting there doing the... He started explaining that in his English.
He started explaining, when you breathe here, it's very tense.
You need to breathe here.
And then he started breathing into the diaphragm.
Then he started doing these diaphragmatic waves, which for the longest time I wanted to teach myself how to do that.
And I finally learned how to do that.
But that's the first time I was like, I started thinking about that.
Now, diaphragmatic breathing isn't necessarily...
it's not novel, but it's something that gets lost.
It gets lost through lifestyle, stress, habits, and a tendency to want to look sexy.
So when people start being very subconscious, very aware of like the way they look, they try to hold their stomach top.
You have women that wear these waist trainers to keep their stomach in.
You have guys that are walking around constantly flexing their abs.
so that they don't look like they have any type of belly, right?
Because we want to look trim.
But what that inherently causes is it causes us to take more shallow breaths.
That one habit causes us to start breathing shallowly.
Instead of allowing like 360 degree expansion here and into our diaphragm.
And our diaphragm is this kind of like it's a pan-shaped thing that's right underneath the rib cage, right?
And when you breathe, it flattens when you inhale.
