Hi,
This is general advice only you should really work with a teacher in these
things.
Try placing your hands on your waist before you breath in and let your waist be
quite "spongy" with a relaxed throat chest and body and good posture you should
feel the area around your waist expand. You will probably feel like your not
doing much and you shouldn't hear any air go in. Try not to suck air as this
sometimes creates tension. Also you shouldn't feel tight after the breath. Try
not to take huge breathes and then hold them before singing as this also creates
tension.
Hope this helps.

many of you here are either voice teachers or professional singers
so do you all mind offering some tips on how to breathe properly and
some exercises to help faciliate better breathing during singing.
Thanks!
