A. The info

1. Nose tape:

   Purpose:

   To widen your nostrils, allowing more air to be let in - no matter if you’re blocked or not.

   Thing is, I believe a majority of people have tighjt nostril due to most people being on modernized diets. These results in underdeveloped facial structrue because of inadequate nutrition. Add on top of that inadequate mechanical stress on the jaws.
   

   I believe we should autonomously tap into nose breathing during night. If we cant, fix (deviated)? septum. OR clear it out.
   Right now I’m doing salt-nose flushes to make it roomier in my nostrils and up the adenoids and sinuses (I think.)

2. Tounge sealed to the roof, ‘mewing’:

   Purpose:

   Relaxtive and maintaining good oral structure.

   What are the mechanics?

   It activates your vagus nerve, improving your vagus tone. This activates your parasympathetic nervous system which in turn winds you down by enabling activity such as improved digestion, slowed heartbeat and bile secretion.

   What are the benefits?

   Relaxative.

   It helps to keep your maxilla (upper jaw) wide.

   Makes it easier for you to nose breathe.

   Improves the cervical spine,

   How to do it:

   Like you’d anticipate, seal your tounge to your mouth-roof. To the soft part!

   If you’re not eating or talking, keep your tounge like this.

B. My experience/view

• Why did I write this?

I’ve now tried both for a bit

It has been working very well

Expect my nose isn’t used to having tape on it there’s a little scar but it’s healing. I’ll give it a rest.

• Who inspired me?

This is inspired by different people I have seen on Instagram using nose tape

e.g. Alex Hormozi and Coastbrah.

And sealing the tounge on the roof is inspired by Dr Steven Lin who advocates for it. Highly recommend checking him out, he’s very knowledgeable.

C. What's coming

Next week we’ll talk about sleeping without a pillow.

Catch you in the next one
