Nasal breathing can increase your ability to nasal breathe, and allow for more dilation of the vasculature, leading to more blood flow and delivery of nutrients to organs, as well as aesthetic changes such as elevation of the cheekbones, improvement of the teeth and entire jaw structure.
This episode explores the connection between breathing patterns and their impact on brain function, including fear modulation and learning ability. The benefits of rhythmic breathing and nasal breathing are also discussed.
Inhalations cause fast physiological changes in the brain, leading to an increase in brain activity and signal to noise ratio, which helps the brain detect things in the environment better. Inhalation has also been linked to increased memory retention and ability to learn new information.
Nasal breathing allows for more blood flow, the delivery of nitric oxide to all tissues, and efficient removal of waste products. Switching to nasal breathing can also result in aesthetic improvements such as elevated cheekbones and improved dental structure.
