Conscious, continuous nasal breathing can resolve health issues and improve athletic performance.   Breathing through the nose creates more pressure and helps slow down breathing. This means that the body inhales more oxygen. On the other hand, mouth breathing can mean lower blood oxygen levels.   Choral conductor Carl Stough was an optimal breathing proponent who demonstrated how singers could manage better resonance and volume by using proper exhalation. He also helped emphysema patients get better.   Ancient systems of breathing such as Pranayama and Sudarshan Kriya demonstrate that humankind has long been aware of the vital importance of proper breathing for health and wellbeing.   The way we chew today is very different from the prehistoric hunter-gatherer communities, who would spend up to four hours a day chewing. Ancient skull remains show powerful skulls, big jaws and straight teeth, whereas modern humans have smaller mouths and consequently more breathing issues.   Author, and Investment Expert and Wellness Explorer Adiel Gorel isn't just an expert in his chosen fields but also a storyteller who makes complex issues easily accessible.
