Your yoga and postural drainage mention inspired me to look up the link between them. I found this article. Granted, most of the poses are challenging and geared for younger folks but they may be modified and can be helpful for the opening the lungs. https://www.wellcurve.in/blog/yoga-asanas-for-lungs/

Hi,
Just a word of caution about the yoga poses. I have osteoporosis in addition to bronchiectasis & MAC. I’m afraid most of those poses would not be recommended for me. Best to discuss with your Dr. and/or an experienced physical therapist.
Take care,
Linda

Thanks Arlo, I do triangle pose, cobra , and spinal twists along with some other “senior poses”. I am very protective of my back. Glad to hear these are good for lungs ! The deep breathing while holding positions for a minute is also helpful.
