Hi,

I would like to ask what is the correct breathing pattern. I have read few threads concerning breathing, quite a few of the advice are to breathe slow & deep.

How exactly is it slow & deep?

When you say slow, does it mean we inhale & exhale slower than when we did it on land; and deeper than usual?

Currently, when inhaling, I took deep breathe, then at the exhale part, I do not exhale slowly and continously; rather I exhale a bit, stop, exhale a bit, stop, exhale a bit, stop.

Is that the correct way? After being concerned that I am an air hog, I change my breathing pattern to as I had explained. Previously, I breathe as per normal, ie like I'm on the surface.

Thank you.
Henry
