Who else was breathing through their nose throughout this entire video? Lol
Lol 😉
Don´t you do that all the time except when worling out??
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Go jogging or working out with a mouth guard.👊💪
@@redicej5843not always - nasal congestion, regardless of cause, leads to shifting to (partial) mouth breathing, which can become an unconscious habit
It's quite shocking how few people know about book called Secret Testosterone Nexus of Evolution

Admin deleted my comment. Haha funny.
But this is a scam. The admin promotes these books with these fake comments.
The one thing that changed things for me was vitamin B1. I had sleep apnea and type 2 diabetes. By Consequence the B1 had an effect. I no longer use a CPAP machine.
Did you find any studies to support this? I would to find out more.
Mewing helps nasal breathing. Mewing is placing the tongue so it is sucked up to the roof of the mouth. With the tongue in the mewed position it pulls the back of the tongue forward opening the airway behind the tongue allowing for greater nasal air flow. There are many videos on YT about proper mewing technique but once you have done for a while, your tongue just naturally prefers the position.
Thank you for your videos. I been implementing your videos in my daily routine and been noticiting positive changes in my life. Thank you!
Thank you Doc. I needed this info!
Great info !!
Nasal breathing increases nitric oxide production for vasodilation. Especially effective when you hum when exhaling.
Can you explain a little more please? What does the humming do?
@@MarkWalmsley I'm not really sure. I saw a video on CZcams about it and did a Google search which both said humming does this. Had to do with vibration and sound waves.
@@edsalem6800 thanks man I'll check it out.
I don’t want to be the guy who is walking around humming LOL
@@ryansahd1 I always hum, and whistle, am I that guy? lol
And to reduce sleep apnea, reduce sugar and carbs …. It always comes back to them. Metabolic syndrome. Cut out sugar, lower your carbs.
I've always been a natural nose breather. It's very rare for me to ever take a breath through my mouth even while eunning cardio. My jawline is very strong and my voice is very deep
@@TigersLullaby125That´s just marginal...
@@redicej5843 Well I'm also built like a body builder. And used to be obese in high school, by all reason my nasal pathway should be tight I'm just lucky I guess
The only time I breath through my mouth is if I am completely out of breath after a good run.
Hope ur not a chick..lol😂
For centuries Indian yoga texts have given methods for accomplishing just what Huberman says here. They heavily emphasize the diaphragm and its central role in breathing properly.
dope edit
Thanks mate .👊

Keeping my mouth shut while on the treadmill was a training method I felt would help in surfing, needing less oxygen over exertion, diving under waves, wipe outs, etc. Now winter and not doing it for some time, I'm finding my nose is always stuffed, snoring and waking up at odd hours of the night. Remember googling the mouth shut/running thing and found nothing. This is the first I've heard of it. Sounds like the cardio itself is the only thing benefiting oxygen efficiency while exerting.
When, I ran track, mouth breather for short distance, high intensity, high air volume.
Long distance, breath / inhale through the nose, mouth exhale.
Thanks for the information sir
Information copied from Andrew Huberman
I struggle with only nose breathing during hard cardio as I take really deep breaths.
Many thanks for the great advices.
-P.S.Eating: Fenugreek sprouts also contributes to increase testosterone
(and milk production during lactation in females).
Take notice to the Diamond League sprint competitors, especially 100 m, 200 m and 400 m. They're crossing the finish line with their mouths closed! God knows they must have been practicing this technique for a long time. World class coaching.
Thank you :)
When exercising and breathing through the nose, is it inhaling and exhaling or is one more important than the other?
What's your take on excessive yawning? Even when I'm well rested and not sleepy... I've been like this for my entire life, now in my 50s.
It was great. I had a question. Your CZcams channel is not copyrighted؟
When I am doing a cardio intensive style workout, I take between three to five deep breaths through my nose to bring my breathing and heart rate down enough for the next set. I'll be more deliberate in my nose breathing after seeing this video, thank you for posting it.
I have been writing to individuals, commenting on videos, and talking to whoever I can about my current physical predicament. For the past 8 months (started first week of July 2023) I have had pressure, pain, and a type of cramping in my right flank area. I usually tell non-medical individuals the "love handle" area, as that gets the point across. This is deep inside the flank area, not on my outer skin area. The outer area of my flank has been numb this entire time. So, from when I awake each morning until I go to bed at night, I have anywhere (on a scale of 1 to 10) from a 4/5 to a 7/8, all day long. Every day, all day for 8 months now.
I have seen 12 doctors / medical professionals in this time-frame, I have had multiple X-rays, CT scans, Ultrasounds, and MRIs of my abdomen, pelvis, hip, Lumbar and Thoracic spine areas, and the right flank / abdominal area that have not shown any definitive reason for what I am experiencing. And this has been with three different medical institutions here in Los Angeles, Providence, Cedars-Sinai, and the latest with Keck of USC.
I have also done many things on my own outside of the traditional medical route. I have done chiropractic treatments, acupuncture treatments, physical therapy, and Trigger Point Release treatments, none of which have improved my condition at all.
I feel I am at the point where I am not being taken seriously, or even believed, by these "professionals". I get responses such as, "But your walking okay", or, "You've seen them a lot, though" (my latest Keck doctor's response when I told him my Orthopedic spine specialist has not responded to me for a month), and the "You'll be fine, just keep moving and / or exercising" one I've heard three times now.
I am a 61 year old male, and I was in the best shape / condition I had been in in 15 years when this started last July. My wife and I added stair climbing to our weekly routines after being invited to climb the US Bank building for charity about a year and a half ago. This is a 75 floor building, and we added specific training to help with climbing stairs. My resting heart rate was in the mid-50s, blood pressure averaged in the 120s over mid 70s, all of my blood panels were normal, and I had just passed my annual physical two days prior to going to the ER for the pain in my lower right side of my back in July. I have never been on any medications for any medical conditions, and only use OTC remedies for headaches. I am currently not on any type of medication.
I am hoping to find someone that has heard of this type of situation, or has known someone dealing with this, and can either state what they know was done, or at least suggest who I should be speaking to. I am really starting to feel like I'm losing my mind, as I have not slept more than 3 or 4 hours a night over the past two months, and usually wake up with a very bad headache because of this.
Try epsum salts baths..(dunk ur face under water 4-6 lbs hot water) B4 sleep...and magnesium glycinate.
Very important for sleep..my two cents..and I'm pretty smart about this stuff
Pain could start from inflammation, olive oil with garlic wouldn't hurt.
Olive oil cured my headache.
Rubbing your feet could help with relaxation and sleep, quality sleep will ease pain...
Best wishes to you!
Wow! For the last decade nearly I’ve had this exact thing. Went to multiple doctors also…Was told I’m a young healthy normal adult. Did every scan just as yourself. Felt crazy, all of it.I’ve given up, please, if you do find out, let me know! Bless us both.
@@specialk3357I told a woman I would become a distributor of her supplement if it helped me with my issue. Unfortunately, the supplement didn't work, either. I'm looking for anyone that can actually help.
Dead hangs to decompress spine, turmeric for inflammation
Hi there!! But what about the voluntary apneas doing in different pranayamas breathing technics and others like alkaline or Wim Hof breathing??
I’d appreciate some light on this 🙏🏼
I believe nose-breathing increases the amount of time gas exchange can take place and that nitrous oxide levels in the blood subsequently increase which then allows for blood vessel dilation (important during exercise). So, don’t be a mouth breather, particularly if you can sustain nose-breathing during exercise.
Great info 👍
Thank you so much. 🙏 It takes a lot of time and effort to make these videos, so we appreciate it.
@@RespireOfficial I appreciate you taking the time and effort 😊
I'm not sure if this channel is endorsed and/or created by Huberman BUT i need to clarify one thing, whenever you talk about "unorthodox/revelations" regarding posture/skull stures alignment/nasal cavities and all related bones structure and skeleton muscle syncronization in regards to apparent/quantifible facial aesthetics/anatomy, such as this time an unexpected major impact of breathing pattern on hormonal balance at any given time,
You sir definiltey first and foremost mention Orthotropics Before Anyone Else on this planet!
No other people than a father and son who risked their comfortable in compliance careers for the sake of truth, being exiled from conventional market/profits driven science circles and managed to contribute and demystify relations in between orthodonty, ent, aesthetics from a pure functional reasoning perspective. purely analytical approach! this was the norm of science back in the golden age of science before ww2! now it's all about loosing perspective and getting out of touch among statistical big data without any guidance of basic reasoning and basic but eternal question of "why?"
So if one breathes from mouth , and jaw changes, can it be reverse by breathing from nose?
Random sleep question,what does it mean if you NEVER have REM sleep?
Is there a breath-work protocol that can used during the day time to help condition the night-time breathing? and what duration would that protocol need?
Make it up yourself
Google 02 trainer
When exercising, can you inhale through the nose and exhale through the mouth.
Also try a ... Lung Expander ...No .. it does Not expand your lungs.I makes the muscles stronger that help you to breath.This thing really makes a difference.....
I just got my o2 trainer. Helped me immediately. I trust Bas.
It's the action of nasal breathing that creates the deep breaths from the lungs. The deeper the breaths, the deeper the oxygen intake, the deeper the exhale of CO2.
I cured my apnea, after being diagnosed with modered to sever apnea. took me 2 years to find the exercise that helped me. it involved blowing into different size tubes, done a certain way to build back pressure. This targeted the weakened throat muscles
could you share these exercises?
Yeah more of if please. Is there a name to find more info about this we can look up?
For making such a big claim it would be really a great thing for you to share it with the rest of us suffering. Generate some good karma for yourself and spill the beans on where to get these exercises.
@@greg6509 I did, Its all in my original post
Also if you wish to increase Testo levels men should apply Zinc to their diet. Just 20-50mg/day. Men do not get enough Zinc from the food we eat. This causes decline in Testo levels. Try it out. Once you have enough Zinc in your body even 10mg will make you feel nauseous. But never take the Zinc to an empty stomach (can make you feel nauseous). Once you get enough zinc I dare to say your wife/GF will notice the difference every morning... 100% Improves your day. :)
I just started supplementing with oyster powder, seems to be increasing my libido.
So is 10mg zinc a day enough do you think, after after how long do you notcie benifits
@@rajahassan1236 Well it depends on how much Zinc you get from your everyday meals. The lower the starting point the more time it takes to see the benefits if you only take 10mg. Might take a week, might take 2 weeks. All depends on your starting point.
Personally I prefer 20mg of Zink. And once your body reaches saturation you will notice as it will cause you to feel a little nauseous. At that point you dont need to take it every day anymore. Once every 2 days or 3 days is enough.
And as always its good to stop using it for a week or two then start again. So your body wont grow tolerance for it.
One thing you definitely shouldn’t try? Mouth taping, the practice of using micropore tape to hold your mouth shut during sleep to ensure you’re breathing through your nose, which you might have seen lauded on social media. Allure has previously reported that this ritual can clog nasal passages, limit oxygen flow, and cause skin irritation even for those who are “normal” breathers. Mouth breathers or those who have irregular breathing or sleep apnea absolutely steer clear, lest you deprive the body of oxygen.
Wow this is going to require some time to change. For the last 60 years, I was taught to inhale through the nose and exale throught the mouth. This was to help me bring my pulse down. And you also can exale more and faster because the mouth is bigger than the nausals. There are excellent presentations on TedEx about the cycle of loosing weight; breathing oxygen and exaling carbon dioxyde, the Calvin Cycle and more.
I do the opposite. I'm 61 and have had sinus issues and excessive phlegm(allergy related) my entire life. I learned to breathe in through my mouth and exhale through my nose to minimize the phlegm that made it to my lungs.
😢🤔🤓🍻
*_QUESTION:_* Nasal for both inhale and exhale? I've been told that inhaling through the nose is good, but then exhale through the mouth to have the CO2 go a different path. Which makes a little sense when you picture inhaling and exhaling through the nose sucking in some of the CO2 you just exhaled.
😎♥✝🇺🇸💯
Remember to use a netty pot to clean out your nose and sinuses before sleep.
It is not netty pot it is called NETI POT which is one of the ancient yogic cleansing techniques which is meant for cleansing the nostrils and the sinuses.
Been breathing through my nose for years. I could work more on deep breathing. I never liked breathing through my mouth. Who likes constantly having dry mouth?
Would using nasal breathing strips on the nose while sleeping help or hinder nasal breathing training?
That's the thing. Most apnea, is an internal upper airway problem. So putting nasal strips on the "outside" of your nose in an attempt to breath better is not really helping the problem.
Try mouth taping. Forces you to breathe through your nose
@@nicholasmuro1742 Have to a non-congested nose first.
@HateDietPepsi
That's what I thought, too. Then, when I did it, my nose became uncongested on its own.
You could also use nasal spray to get started. Don't tape your whole mouth shut. Leave the corners open in case you need to breathe.
When I’m working out if I breathe through my nose my sinuses start stinging and hurt
possibly from dry air ?
Would EWOT fix this?
What should tooth grinders do (who have to wear night guards to prevent tooth grinding)?
Tape their fucking mouths shut
Answer this andrew!
I have found that since I started breathing through my nose the past year I have stopped grinding my teeth. This is just my personal experience.
Meditation.
It's a mental issue.
WORMS! GRINDING OF TEETH MAY INDICATE WORMS----IVRMECTIN
Summary: if you're not breathing through your nose most of the time, do so. Use medical mouth tape during sleep. If you already breathe through your nose, there's nothing to boost.
I can say without a doubt, years of mouth breathing (developed during childhood due to allergies), changed my facial structure for the negative. That being said, I’m making conscious effort to rewire my “default” and have been strengthening my tongue and neck muscles (both atrophied through decades of habit), and I am already starting to see changing in my sleep quality. Too soon to see if any facial adjustments will happen (maybe I’m too old for it already), but just being about to help regulate my hormones better and health is more important than cosmetic aspects (although improvement would be nice).
Dont you mean years of mouth breathing?
@@jrajendranjayaraman3025 yes, thank you for the correction, will edit.
How old are you?
@@GermanEistee2000 I’m in my mid 40s
Same case here, Allergie against dust and Pollen, 34 now and going to have 2 Operation of upper and lower jaw because i can not actually Close my mouth
So when you say nasal breathing does that mean inhaling & exhaling through the nose or just inhaling through the nose?
both in and out. but the increase happens when breathing in. No one normally breathes in through nose or mouth, and out the other. Usually one or the other.
Ah... As someone who has observed anecdotally the seemingly lowered standard of hormone production and physical health and "attractiveness" of the colorful-haired activist brigade, the pejorative term "mouth-breather" is taking on a whole new meaning. Thanks again, Dr H!
The only problem is that once you get slept ,you can’t control which way you are breathing
I hear some tape their mouth lol
@@triggerskull
Tapping hour month won’t get h to sleep I believe everything in moderation
So what if you're a nasal breather and you still snore.
I breathe through my nose as I run I've never been a mouth breather.
I have the videos that show that I'm a nose breather at night sleeping and yet I snore.
At 54, my testosterone is 1140 lol. So high they did an ultrasound on my sack because they thought it was a tumor or some BS. I told them, I live like a man, work like a man, lift weights and party. That's my secret :D
so what about swimmers? top cardio sport, mouth breathers
My nasal passages severely limited the amount of air I could take in. Swimming was the perfect sport for me. Distance swimmer in high school
They all bat for the other team. They shave their bodies. It is unnatural.
@@JudgeSteve-pe8fh lol what a retarded statement, ur obsolete man
He addressed your question. It's towards the end of the video.
I've had low testosterone and sleep apnea for 20 plus years, while using a CPAP machine and (painful) Testosterone injecting. The only way to fix this is to get rid of Carbs. Either Keto or Carnivore eating habit's can fix this. I'm not says these people are wrong. This fixed me in one month. I feel great. No snoring, weight loss, better sleep and long term energy. I'm now 50 years old and wished I did this in my 20's. Life is short, stop torturing yourself.
Have to say Andrew..."so true!" Great video. Blessings to you!
Double inhale exhale has helped me sleep
There's an old saying that goes
Mouth is for eating, nose is for breathing
Practice qi gung
Wow what a powerful way to say "Hey, breathe through your nose"👃
No go for nose problems
if you wanna stop snoring and stop having sleep apnea, get on the carnivore or keto diet ... i use to have bad sleep apnea and I would snore like a pig, ever since I got into the carnivore diet, my snoring and my sleep apnea stopped completely and now i sleep like a normal healthy person ... i've never slept so normal in my entire life ... thank me later 🙌
I put duct tape over my wife's mouth 25 years ago .. did 20 years in the can
What I don’t get is how do the nostrils provide more air than your mouth? Why wouldn’t mouth breathing actually be better?
The nasal passage is a miracle of life that filters the bad air intake through the intricate network of passages and rated notice oxide into your system. Hence the quote in with the good out with the bad. Whereas breathing through your mouth does not filter anything or create anything beneficial to your health. It may feel like you are taking in more air, but in reality, there is absolutely no benefit in mouth breathing.
Unless you have enlarged nasal turbinates or Nocturnal Nasal Congestion syndrome.
I was nose breathing and thought this video should have been three sentences long.
So there really wasn't any advice here for people with severe obstructive sleep apnea? Other than breathe through our nose during the day?
3:40 - Nasal breathing creates N2O (nitrous oxide) in the bloodstream
How about wim hof breathing
I don't mind that he does.
Is there an optimal way to tape mouths for men with beards?
Good news for all of us who have big noses.
What's wrong with large nostrils ?
I'm surprised that Andrew didn't mention the correct tongue position. The tip of the tongue should be about 1/4 inch (6mm) behind the top front teeth. It should be held there with little to no effort (after you adapt to it). Chinese Martial Arts practicers have know this for millennia. So have Indian Yogis. So do all self aware and healthy people. We should be taught this at an early age.
How about people with nasal polyps 😢
I believe Dr. Huberman discusses this in the full version of the podcast. We highly recommend watching it, as he goes into much more detail on this topic.
@@RespireOfficial thanks for sharing will watch
What about buteyko breathing
yes!
Spot on about rhe apnea. I put on 40kgs in last 3yrs & I got apnea, @107 events per hr. Mainly central events. Cpap didn’t help but. I also have emphysema, so my breathing is shit. I’ve learnt meditation & breathework in last 2.5yrs. I nose breathe at night, but during the day I breathe through the mouth as my lung capacity is at 40%. I lost 20kg since Xmas from a intermittent fasting diet 18/6 & am on a keto diet. My lung capacity increased to 50% since last test 12mnths ago. I wondered why I developed man boobs, now I understand the testosterone /sleep link. I hadn’t out that part together & my doc is a useless piece of shit who just writes scripts really, like most these days in aus. Thankyou for the video. I now know how to attack this problem.
If i breathe through my mouth while sleeping am I screwed?
Try nasal openers. I used to struggle breathing through my nose in sleep, but now it's much better
Try mouth tape. Works !
cpap: expensive and doesn't work for me.
Easy hack for nose breathing is to push your tongue to the roof of your mouth. Do this and then try to breath through your mouth . You won’t be able too your body somehow forces you to nose breath 🤷♂️
Nasal breathing means to exhale from the nose as well? Can anyone answer?
Yes, a breath is in and out.
Do/ search pranayam..
I think I have a cold, so it is hard right now. So, breathe in through the nose and also out through the nose.
Try the Buteyko method to clear up your stuffy nose, it really helps! Pinch your nose after a normal outbreath, mouth shut, and move your head up and down until you need to breathe in again. Catch your breath and repeat. I only need 2 or 3 times or meent maybe 4 if I’m really stuffed.

Key Takeaways:
## Summary
Andrew Huberman, a renowned neuroscientist, delivers an insightful presentation on how proper breathing techniques can significantly influence testosterone levels and overall hormonal balance. Huberman emphasizes the detrimental effects of apnea, especially sleep apnea, on hormonal health, stating that inefficient breathing leads to increased carbon dioxide levels, which negatively impacts testosterone production. He advocates strongly for nasal breathing, over mouth breathing, presenting a compelling case backed by scientific evidence and research. The presentation covers the importance of good breathing habits for reducing stress, improving sleep quality, optimizing hormones, and enhancing facial cosmetics. Huberman’s discussion extends to practical advice on transitioning to nasal breathing through techniques like mouth taping and nasal dilation exercises, showcasing how simple lifestyle adjustments can lead to substantial health benefits.
## Ideas
1. Efficient breathing is crucial for maintaining optimal testosterone levels; improper breathing patterns can disrupt hormonal balance.
2. Sleep apnea, characterized by poor breathing efficiency and excessive carbon dioxide buildup, plays a significant role in diminishing hormone levels in both genders.
3. Nasal breathing is superior to mouth breathing in numerous ways, including enhancing facial aesthetics, improving sleep quality, and optimizing hormone production.
4. Addressing breathing habits can be an effective, non-invasive strategy for hormone optimization, highlighting the interconnection between breathing, sleep, and hormonal health.
5. Physiological sighs, a pattern of double inhales followed by an exhale, can significantly reduce stress and anxiety while helping offload carbon dioxide.
6. Hormonal regulation is essential for overall well-being and can be positively influenced by managing stress levels, ensuring quality sleep, and maintaining proper breathing patterns.
7. Deep sleep and REM sleep are critical for hormone optimization, with breathing patterns playing a pivotal role in achieving these sleep stages.
8. Mouth taping during sleep and nasal dilation exercises are practical methods for promoting nasal breathing and improving sleep quality.
9. Huberman's presentation underscores the importance of everyday habits in influencing hormonal health, advocating for awareness and proactive management of breathing patterns.
10. The discussion brings to light emerging literature on the subject, encouraging further exploration and application of breathing techniques for health optimization.
## Quotes
1. "The buildup of too much carbon dioxide in the body was a problem... impacting hormones negatively."
2. "Patterns of breathing... can modulate hormones in ways that are immediately actionable."
3. "Breathing through the nose... is powerful for improving... cosmetic features of the jaw and face."
4. "Nasal breathing... can modify level of different neurotransmitters and neuromodulators in ways that positively impact hormones."
5. "You have to breathe properly to get your breathing and sleep right, so that your sleep can actually support gonad function."
6. "Cortisol... you don't want it elevated too long throughout the day and night."
7. "Proper sleep is important for offsetting reductions in testosterone and estrogen... if we don't get enough sleep."
8. "The best way to get good at nasal breathing is to dilate the nasal passages... breathe through your nose more."
## Habits
1. Consistently practice nasal breathing throughout the day and night to improve hormone levels and reduce the risk of sleep apnea.
2. Incorporate physiological sighs into daily routines to manage stress and anxiety effectively.
3. Engage in nasal dilation exercises regularly to enhance the ease of nasal breathing and improve airway patency.
4. Apply mouth taping techniques during sleep to encourage nasal breathing, reduce snoring, and improve sleep quality.
5. Make nasal breathing a priority during cardiovascular exercises, except when maximum effort necessitates mouth breathing.
6. Prioritize achieving deep sleep stages through good sleep hygiene practices, emphasizing the role of breathing in sleep quality.
7. Monitor stress levels and implement strategies to manage cortisol levels effectively, including breathing techniques and ensuring adequate sleep.
8. Educate oneself on the science of breathing and its impact on health through recommended readings and resources.
## Facts
1. Inefficient breathing and sleep apnea are closely associated with hormonal imbalances, particularly decreased testosterone levels.
2. Nasal breathing offers multiple health benefits over mouth breathing, including better oxygen-carbon dioxide exchange and improved sleep quality.
3. Mouth breathing can lead to negative cosmetic changes in facial structure, as detailed in studies comparing nasal and mouth breathers.
4. The physiological sigh is a natural response to apnea episodes, highlighting the body's mechanism to manage stress and breathing efficiency.
5. Hormonal optimization is intricately linked to sleep quality, with deep and REM sleep phases being particularly important.
6. Breathing patterns have a direct impact on hormone levels, making proper breathing practices a key factor in hormonal health.
7. Elevated cortisol levels, particularly when prolonged, can have detrimental effects on testosterone and estrogen levels.
8. Techniques such as mouth taping and nasal dilation exercises can significantly improve breathing efficiency and support hormonal health.
## Resources
1. "Jaws: The Story of a Hidden Epidemic" by Sandra Khan and Paul Ehrlich, which explores the health and cosmetic benefits of nasal breathing.
2. "Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art" by James Nestor, offering insights into the importance of proper breathing for overall health.
3. Literature and studies on the impact of sleep apnea on hormones, providing a scientific basis for the discussion on breathing and hormonal health.
4. Previous podcast episodes and discussions by Andrew Huberman on related topics, serving as additional resources for understanding the interplay between breathing, stress, and hormones.
## Recommendations
1. Adopt nasal breathing as a consistent practice during both waking and sleeping hours to optimize hormone levels and improve health.
2. Consider mouth taping as a practical approach to ensure nasal breathing during sleep, especially for those prone to mouth breathing.
3. Regularly perform nasal dilation exercises to facilitate easier nasal breathing and improve air flow.
4. Educate oneself on the benefits of proper breathing and apply this knowledge to daily life to enhance hormonal balance and overall well-being.
5. Utilize stress-reduction techniques, including physiological sighs, to manage cortisol levels and support hormonal health.
6. Ensure quality sleep by adhering to good sleep hygiene practices, recognizing the crucial role of breathing in achieving deep sleep stages.
7. Proactively manage and monitor breathing patterns, recognizing their significant impact on hormonal health and general well-being.
8. Seek professional advice for severe breathing difficulties or sleep apnea, exploring options such as CPAP machines when necessary.
