Hmmm. Courage, if you sit up straight and deeply inhale and exhale, you should feel that your stomach and gut contract as well. Remember, the fire chakra is located in the abdomen, and breathing techniques are taught to people who suffer from gastroparesis. Asthma and smokers have lung inflammation so I can see it go either way because I looked on WebMD and it doesn't really say otherwise if lung inflammation can effect stomach exercising. o_o If that makes sense...
