By lowering stress levels, which are known to affect thyroid function, breathing exercises can indirectly help thyroid health. Deep breathing, also known as diaphragmatic breathing, is a useful technique. Place one hand on your chest and the other on your abdomen, and find a quiet, comfortable place to sit or lie down. Inhale slowly through your nose, letting your abdomen rise while keeping your chest still, then exhale slowly through your mouth, allowing your abdomen to fall. This practice helps relaxation and stress reduction. Incorporating mindfulness meditation alongside these activities will further enhance thyroid function by soothing both the mind and body. For thorough thyroid management, always seek professional advice.
