This is a breathing technique that helps improvebreath support and posture. It's named after an 18th-century Italian castrato singer who was known for his exceptional breath control. The exercise involves inhaling, suspending, and exhaling for a set amount of time. Here are some tips for performing the Farinelli exercise:

Inhale: Inhale slowly through your nose while activating your diaphragm.

Suspend: Keep your throat open and relaxed, and don't hold your breath by closing off your windpipe. Leave it open and keep from exhaling using your core.

Exhale: Keep your sternum raised while exhaling. Your belly button will move toward your spine, and your lower ribs will move inward. If you run out of air, slightly pull your belly button in.
