Mirko, I also used to use too much air, intentionally inhaling and
then being unable to exhale fully. I think that the breathing lesson
(based on the work of Carl Stough) that I've previously posted might
be helpful to you in learning to breath without needing to
"consciously breath in after phrases". The basic idea is to practice
increasing the length of the exhalation and then letting the
inhalation just happen. Here's the link:
