Another benefit of using the lower bandhs is that they indirectly increase your breathing capacity. During a normal inhalation, your diaphragm moves down from its arched resting position at the bottom of your ribcage and pushes out your abdomen. When your lower bandhas are engaged, your diaphragm can’t descend in the usual way so your abdomen doesn’t swell outward. Instead, your breath meets resistance and spreads upward and outward through your chest. This causes your lungs to inflate fully and expand the chest muscles (the intercostals) from the inside. This way of breathing is now commonly called “empowered thoracic breathing” and it produces a positive and focused mental state. For more information about breathing and bandhas, refer to David Coulter’s excellent book, Anatomy of Hath Yoga
