For easier breathing, try enjoying your exhale.
Focusing on the inhale is a common habit. Enjoying your exhale allows the exhale to last a little longer so that your lungs can empty more completely. Emptier lungs allow for an easier inhale. This tip goes a little deeper into breathing than the previous. Enjoying your exhale is as simple as that, enjoy it and let it take its time. After all, your next inhale will arrive very soon.

How to NONDO the breath by NONDOING neck,head,torso,limbs by using alexander directions of good use?
Ans@ i think breath is a reflexive of whole body mechanism.
If we think breath depends on two parts.
a) software parts ( we can’t see this part with our eyes. )@
For example, Unconsciously holding the breath is a bad habit of this software part .
b) hardware parts(we can see with our eyes these parts) :
torso(true,floating ribs etc) and torso,neck,head,legs,hands.
The bad habits of these hardware parts are ribcage with floating ribs not moves with breath and
neck not free,
head back and down,back shorten and narrow ,knees lock,holding the abdomin rigid etc.
The holding of breath bad habit can be NONDO by conscious ness on the breath by noticing when we are holding the breath and allowing the breath.
and no movement of ribcage with floating ribs etc can be moved by , NONDOING with alexander neck,head,torso,limbs directions of good use
The software,hardware parts works each other as a whole for the reflexive breath.
The software parts satisfies the hardware parts,
and the hardware parts satisfies the software parts.
One is with out another.one fails another fails.
This is just my opinion.excuse me ,if any wrong statements are there.
