Intervention  Breathing training programme  Breathing training programme consist of three breathing exercises i.e., alternate nostril breathing, 4-7-8 breathing and breath counting which was taught with the help of a video. The first practice session was demonstrated by the researcher. The subjects were then asked to perform return demonstration which was evaluated by the researcher for correct technique. The subjects were provided with a pre- recorded video with which they can perform the remaining sessions. They were asked to practice breathing exercises for 5 minutes thrice daily at home. Frequency- thrice daily. Number of sessions- 3 times a day for 4 weeks, i.e., total 90 sessions. How long each session- 5 mins. Total intervention- 4 weeks intervention period with total 15 minutes per day.
