I believe this is how it works--the diaphragm moves down when you breathe in, giving your lungs more room to expand, then moves back up when you breathe out to help push the air out.

Yes, I also have a difficult time with this, will someone explain the steps in proper deep breathing, in steps and detail with pictures. Where is this diaphragm under the sternum? or below the navel? Where will I find it, in order to see if I am doing it properly?

actually the diaphragm relaxes when we breathe in, air pressure causes air to move into your lungs pretty well. The diaphragm contracts and pushes up against the lungs when we exhale against the ambient air pressure.

it sounds like you may have a mild case of OCD ( obsessive compulsive disorder ). Look up the disorder on line and find a symptoms checker to see if it applies to you.If it gets to be a real problem for you , I suggest seeing a psychiatrist for medication.Good Luck! Vera
