Mouth breathing can exacerbate ADHD. Nasal breathing can be a helpful tool in supporting cognitive function due to the nose's ability to enhance oxygen uptake efficiency. This optimized oxygen delivery supports brain function by maintaining proper levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitric oxide in the body, which are essential for neuronal activity, restful sleep, stress reduction, anxiety relief, and improved mental clarity and focus. Practicing different breath techniques helps to synchronize brain waves and regulate emotions. Be a nasal breather; each breath matters.

Snoring Can Be Harmful. Commonly regarded as a nuisance, snoring can have significant harmful effects on our health and quality of life. The primary harm of snoring lies in its association with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). This can lead to severe cardiovascular problems such as high blood pressure, heart disease, and increased risk of stroke. Furthermore, the persistent vibration and movement associated with snoring may cause irritation and inflammation in the throat, worsening respiratory health.

The relationship between nasal breathing and the vagus nerve demonstrates how breathing influences our nervous system. The parasympathetic branch of the nervous system is largely controlled by the vagus nerve. Slow, deep, nasal breathing stimulates the vagus nerve promoting calm, lower heart rate and reduced blood pressure and over all well being.

Nasal breathing plays a crucial role in cognitive function due to the nose's ability to filter, humidify, and regulate the temperature of air as it enters the body, thereby enhancing oxygen uptake efficiency. This optimized oxygen delivery supports brain function by maintaining optimal levels of oxygen, carbon dioxide, and nitric oxide in the body, which are essential for neuronal activity. Breathing through the nose in specific patterns of focus can influence brainwave activity, particularly in areas associated with memory and emotional regulation.

Nasal breathing is important to the creation of nitric oxide in our bodies. Nitric oxide is important to a number of our body’s physiological processes.

Navigating from the nervous system discusses a perspective and a collection of tools designed to rewire my brain to change my physiological responses to stressful situations. I can respond to triggers rather that react and be stuck in a state of high alert.

When it comes to stamina, endurance, and overall physical performance, not all breathing is equal. Nasal breathing while exercising plays a crucial role in enhancing physical performance, whereas mouth breathing can significantly hinder performance by reducing oxygen intake efficiency and increasing the risk of dehydration.

Having enjoyed a few years of solid, restorative deep sleep, I find myself in a cycle of sleep disturbance, restless nights and dysfunctional days. This article explores going through my days and my sleep checklists to help improve my sleep.

Nasal breathing can significantly benefit oral health by promoting proper air filtration and humidification, preventing dry mouth, supporting pH balance in the oral biome, supporting jaw development, and reducing the risk of sleep-disordered breathing. Mouth breathing harms our oral health. Be a nasal breather.

Exploring through digital fatigue.

Nasal breathing is crucial to maintaining pH balance in our body. Mouth breathing leads to health problems: enzyme disruption, electrolyte depletion, cardiovascular problems, respiratory issues, diminished oxygen delivery, heart arrhythmia, sleep disturbances. Ensure nasal breathing with BreatheWell’s Mouth Tape to support health and well being.

Tacking the stress of the holidays and family gatherings by remembering to focus on the breathing.

In addition to removing carbon dioxide and creating oxygen, trees provide mental and physical health benefits, calming anxiety, improving depression and lowering blood pressure.

Maintaining nasal breathing and mouth taping through a recent bout of covid required diligent effort.

Nasal breathing can be used as an effective tool to improve athletic performance.

While breathing is an autonomic function of the central nervous system, we can be attuned to the quality of our breathing and use that awareness to improve our breathing and our health.

Consistent, quality sleep is essential to health and well being. There are many tools we can utilize to improve the quality of our sleep.

Breath work can be a powerful tool to enhance cognitive functions by activating the parasympathetic nervous system.

My understanding of how profoundly the quality of my breath affects my health continues to grow.

Breathing is so essential we have a primary system, our noses, and a back-up system, our mouths. Each of these systems has capabilities that the other does not, which gives us a clear indication which system is the most beneficial to the body for breathing: It’s the nose.
