The Top Five Benefits of Pilates Breathing








Here are five benefits of learning the Pilates Breathing Method and five health conditions it can help:


1️⃣ Increases your lung capacity

2️⃣ Improves muscle activation and performance during exercise

3️⃣ Reduces anxiety and stress

4️⃣ The exhale activates the core muscles

5️⃣ Improves mental health by focusing your attention to the mind/ body connection


One Lung Breathing is an incredible tool for anyone as it focuses you on one lung and one side of your ribs at a time. I’ve found it very helpful for people new to Pilates in understanding HOW lateral breathing works.


It’s also particularly good for those with:


1️⃣Scoliosis

2️⃣Asthma

3️⃣COPD

4️⃣COVID recovery

5️⃣Pneumonia recovery

Have a beautiful day,


Much love,

Rachel ❤️
