    Wow, this is amazing. I’ve breathed through my mouth my whole life because the airway from my nose was just too narrow. The minute I put my tongue on the roof of my mouth I felt so much more air coming in! Thanks so much 😍😍

    To unblock my nose I gently squeeze the ends of my nostrils and it opens the airways. Stimulating the nerves seems to open the airway for some reason. I only need to do this occasionally. Sometimes it lasts for days or weeks. I had one nostril blocked and after doing this it is more open than the other. It works for me. It could work the same way as reflexology, I do not know.

    The major issue for all Mouth breathers is that their MINUTE VOLUME breathing has changed. Just like when people over eat they become over weight, When people OVER breathe - eg mouth at rest, chemical, physical or emotional stress or lack of awareness then gradually over breath more and more.
    The community and Medical world does not really get this.
    THIS is what causes asthma , THIS is what causes snoring and poor sleep, THIS is what causes blocked noses and increasing allergy reactions. THIS is what causes the "feeling of not getting enough air"
    These techniques of Sarah's, though well meaning, will NOT convert people to Nasal Breathers.
    The ONLY way to correct this is to reduce or reset the MINUTE VOLUME breathing.
    If this is done correctly it matters not if you have deviated septum, reduce allergy reactions, eliminate asthma and sleep apnoea and correct the dental issues.
    The Buteyko Method if taught correctly (not thru video or book or Dr Google) corrects breathing in 5 consec days and then with a period of consolidation.
    All other treatments are symptomatic only.
    I know this because I have taught over 6000 people full time for 10 yrs.

      This sounds like bullshit. There’s plenty of people who’ve seen improvements without this and I imagine that once you’ve gradually increased the amount you breath through your nose you’ll have automatically reset how much air you’re used to.

For years I've had really bad sleep and pretty consistent congestion as soon as I lie down for bed. I'm working on things with myself and want to prevent him from having the issues I've had.

      Don't try it, get your nose checked, if you have a deviated nasal septum, it's a structural issue, your nose isn't giving you enough air, so you must breathe with your mouth, no amount of mewing will help that, only getting surgery would, sometimes even chiropractic readjustment works.
      Trying too hard to breathe through your nose despite feeling suffocated will affect your oxygen levels.

    Years ago I lost the ability to breath through my nose. I've just dealt with it by breathing through my mouth, catching my breath, and taking deep breaths. Yesterday, I was at the dentist with a mouth opener and other items, while she "did her work" for a crown placement. She only did half the work and I need to come back next week. It's terrifying to me because I can't breathe when all of this is happening. I'm scared I will die from not breathing at the dentist.

  • @JusBidniss
    @JusBidniss 6 років тому +1

    Sometime the reason people don't get enough air through their nose is due to 'swollen turbinates'. The nose's bony divider (septum) has 3 ridges in each nostril that run front to back, and which are covered by fleshy nasal lining. With a cold or allergies, this lining gets swollen, but sometimes it's swollen all or most of the time without these conditions. Focusing on breathing through your nose for longer periods, or using a nasal CPAP mask, can help shrink this tissue and improve the airflow. If this does not work, your doctor may recommend surgery, where an RF probe is inserted into this lining, heating it and turning part of it into smaller-volume scar tissue (mine once suggested this procedure). In my case, a CPAP 'nasal pillow' mask did the trick, and I can now breath through my nose for long periods. However, I'm still a mouth breather when I sleep due to the lifetime habit, so to use my nasal mask, I have to use a chin strap and tape my lips. I came here hoping to learn how to stop my mouth breathing without all that contraption, because my nasal pillow mask really is the most comfortable and least painful I've found. A full face mask causes me facial and front sinus pain, plus leaks a lot due to the shape of my face. I've tried the tongue-on-the-roof-of-the-mouth thing, to no avail so far -- I always wake up with the CPAP air pressure blowing out of my dry-as-the-Sahara mouth.

    • @wilson7262
      @wilson7262 2 роки тому

      I’m afraid a CPAP mask does not directly address the problem, surgery is the only way. And as to break the habit of sleep mouth breathing, once surgery is completed and patient recovered, used duct tape to tape the mouth shut at night to encourage nose breathing. This is important as the most important time to make breath is when sleeping

      @@preetimittal2123 CPAP did seem to help me overcome my swollen turbinate problem. The positive air pressure and the use of a nasal-only mask choice helped enough air flow past to keep down my nightly incidents of apneic episodes.
      I'm not sure I could say how much my turbinates have shrunk, and I never got such a measurement from my doctor. I used to suffer from a lot of sinus headaches back then, partly due to the swollen turbinates. I have a lot fewer sinus headaches now, usually only during colds and such.
      So overall, I'd highly recommend CPAP, and a nasal mask in particular, assuming escaping air from the mouth can be controlled.

    Starting putting tape on my mouth . Yeah i know it's funny but best decision of my life.. improved my sleep quality plus ...less dry mouth issue..
    ( Finally help of .. frequencies and subliminals)
    Improving lifestyle..
    Like stopping habits which increase nasal congestion or swelling..like late night sleeping.. dairy product or cold stuff .
    Soon i will do something for teeth alignment.. hopefully..it will help me more to control mouth breathing
