Nose Breathing - who knew?
Hey y'all. Got lost in some other worlds along the way, so haven't been by here in awhile, but I just found this book recently and wanted to pass it along, especially to Grant's tribe. It describes an amazing practice with rapid results. Nose-breathing, who knew, ha! (Wonder if it even helps with detox.)

By page 64 I am simply blown-away by the information and history of this practice (on my third day of reading and practicing it 24-7) and there's still 200 pages to go (nose-breathing all the way, ha)
Have a blessed summer,
hillcountry

Amazing. I've practised simple daily breathing exercises throughout my entire detox and it is the one thing that noticeably makes a difference.

I once heard about a book called "Shut Your Mouth" and although I never read it, haha, from that moment on I stopped mouth breathing. I think in the olden days, parents and grandparents knew to make their kids shut their mouth and to stand up straight and sit straight too. I remember that teen girls were taught to walk with grace by balancing a book on their heads. These things are not just adults bothering kids for no reason. The army also makes it's recruits stand and sit up straight.
Allergies are rampant in young kids for many reasons and mouth breathing becomes a bad habit, and whole generations are turning out like Napoleon Dynamite.

I can still over-breathe with the nose breathing. Sometimes I need to concentrate on the out-breath for a while. If you aren't out-breathing, you can't in-breathe. Usually at these times I realize my breathing has become quick and shallow. There will be tension in my throat and front of the chest that needs to be relaxed. There is a sort of chin-forward head-tilt that goes along with wrong breathing as well, which usually I have to undo. I suppose it is a type of hyperventilation. During these times I often find there is some sort of mucus that needs clearing with a little cough. A sip of water.
I think it is easy to call this "asthma" or "anxiety", but at least in my case (and everyone IS different) I can clear it up with just a little bit of work.

It seems when this wrong breathing happens in bed at night, it can lead to a feeling of restless leg for me. Sort of a tingling/needing to move them.

Chin forward head tilt : this is the <star gazing> attitude typical of thiamine deficiency in sheep and birds.

Anyone interested in breathing should search for ‘Dino’ as he had a lot of really useful stuff to say. He alerted me to the importance of breathing for detox and I regularly re-read his posts here.

Great to hear from ya, @hillcountry! 😃 Thanks for the book recommendation. I’ll give it a read on the beach. 😎☀️
When I was a kid, my Mom took us kids to a “neurodevelopmentalist” for support with our various challenges, and they taught that proper breathing was essential for all sorts of developmental reasons. So my Mom was old-fashioned, I guess, in reminding us to breathe through our noses properly. 😂
Looking forward to learning more (reading Dino’s thread, too; thanks, Jenny). 🙂

Hi Guys, especially @ourania I thought you might have an opinion about this. Some of my loved ones are elderly and they have been taught "deep breathing" by the hospital and the home nurse. This is an exercise of breathing in the nose and out the mouth. They have internalized this message and I think they believe this is just great! They are doing it all the time! People in general want to default to mouth breathing and this gives them a bit of permission. I bet it is leading to over-breathing. When I try it, it goes straight to my head.
I'm putting this into the category of "well-meaning advice that is probably back firing". What do you think?
I found this info on the web and I wonder if it is part of some campaign that is being pushed.

"Step 1: Lie on your back, relax your shoulders, and place one hand on your chest and the other on your stomach. Step 2: Breathe in deeply through your nose, feeling your stomach move outward. Step. 3: Purse your lips and breathe out slowly through your mouth while pressing lightly on your stomach. Step 4. Repeat"
