A06 – Button tug-of-war – lip strength training

A few minutes a day is enough to support the breathing pattern without turning the evening into a lesson.


For this exercise you will need a button of your chosen size, threaded onto a string or elastic band. Sit up straight. Place your feet flat on the floor, bend your knees at a right angle and keep your torso perpendicular to the floor. Keep your head straight, facing forward. Keep your teeth lightly closed together.

Place the tied button between your teeth and lips. Close your lips and resist, moving the button in different directions.
