About Breath & the Lungs

Every breath is a quiet miracle, the chest lifts, the diaphragm drops, and two spongy lungs bloom open to welcome a rush of fresh air. Oxygen crosses into the bloodstream through millions of tiny air sacs called alveoli, while carbon dioxide makes its unhurried exit on the exhale. It happens some 20,000 times a day without a single conscious thought, the most faithful rhythm in the body.
