The importance of nose breathing

 

Hey luckystar 🤗

Today I will share on nose-breathing and my breath healing journey:

Breathing is an essential part of healing and overall-health in general. For many years I have been a mouth breather, and my health suffered a lot from it.

BREATHING TROUGH THE MOUTH IS VERY BAD FOR YOUR HEALTH😱

BUT DONT WORRY, THERE ARE LOVING WAYS TO GET BETTER🥰😉

At one point I couldn't properly breath trough my nose anymore, I went to the ear-nose-throat doctor about it but they didn't find the cause of my clogged nose. 

I tried all kinds of nasal sprays, from sea-salt sprays to special nose-oils,  only the cortisone nose spray helped, and using cortisone for prolonged periods is really bad for your health. 

For the longest time I thought that it was an allergy, but it turns out it wasn't!

The last few years I have been focusing on imporoving tongue posture and the resting position of my lips. I slowly started to breath trough my nose during the day and my stuffed nose went away. 

After a nights sleep I would still have a swollen nose and it was hard to breath trough my nose at the beginning of the day, I also had a  yellow-white coating on my tongue that I would scrape off with a tongue cleaner.

Then I started to experiment with methods to keep my mouth closed at night and not only did my nose breathing improve more and more, also the yellow-white coating on my tongue got dramatically better!

This all was a 2-year process and a lot of learning and experimenting, so please don't put pressure on yourself and your healing journey ❤️🤗

Nowadays I tape my mouth every night. It's the easiest way to insure that I breathe trough my nose when I'm asleep.

I use the @hansaplast.de

Sensitive band aid tape and I find it is the softest on my lips. 

To peel it off I start to lick it off with my tongue 😋  it's important to get it wet for easy removal. 

please DON'T RIP IT OFF, I did it at the beginning and I had weird dark spots on my lips 😬

The book Breath by @mrjamesnestor

taught me a lot about healthy breathing, this book was a major gamechanger in my healing journey 😍

I love you ❤️
