How breathing through your nose can change your life

Did you know that the correct way to breathe is through your nose? Here’s how it can change your life.

🫶🏽 Signals safety to our body - when we breathe through our nose we activate a neurotransmitter in our nose that signals safety to our nervous system, helping to calm and relax us and reduce anxiety and stress.

🫶🏽 Activation of the Parasympathetic Nervous System: Nasal breathing, especially slow and deep breaths, stimulates the parasympathetic (rest and digest) nervous system - relaxing us and reducing stress and anxiety.

🫶🏽 Enhanced Oxygenation: Nasal breathing helps us breath deeper and have a more efficient oxygen intake. This can have a calming effect on the body and mind, reducing feelings of anxiety and stress

🫶🏽 Balancing Carbon Dioxide Levels: Breathing through your nose, helps maintain optimal carbon dioxide levels in the bloodstream. Breathing too rapidly or shallowly, can lead to decreased carbon dioxide levels, which may contribute to feelings of anxiety and panic. 

🫶🏽 Help engage the Diaphragm: Nasal breathing encourages diaphragmatic breathing. This activates the body’s relaxation response helping reduce anxiety.

🫶🏽 Filtration: Breathing through your nose helps filter out dust, pollen, bacteria, and other harmful particles from the air, preventing them from entering the respiratory system.

🫶🏽 Controls temperature: The nasal passages warm or cool incoming air to bring it closer to body temperature before it reaches the lungs, reducing the likelihood of respiratory issues due to extreme temperature changes.

🫶🏽 Nitric Oxide: When we breath through our nose we release Nitric Oxide, it has many benefits from, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anti viral.

Breathing through your nose is not possible for everyone. If it is for you, you should try breathe this way as much as possible.
