It is very usual for some people to experience breathlessness during COVID-19. Here are some of the positions that might help you overcome this concern easily:

High side-lying: Lying on your side propped up by pillows, supporting your head and neck, with your knees slightly bent.

Forward lean sitting: Sitting at a table, lean forwards from the waist with your head and neck resting on the pillow, & your arms resting on the table. You can also try this without the pillows.

Forward lean sitting: (no table in front) Sitting on a chair, lean forwards to rest your arms on your lap or the armrests of the chair

Forward lean standing: While standing, lean forwards onto a windowsill or other stable surface.

Standing with back support: Lean with your back against a wall and your hands by your side. Have your feet about a foot away from the wall and slightly apart.
