Mouth breathing, on the other hand, completely bypasses this mechanism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"654\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.02.jpg?resize=1024%2C654&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"breathing trhough the nose\" class=\"wp-image-1761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.02.jpg?resize=1024%2C654&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.02.jpg?resize=300%2C191&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.02.jpg?resize=768%2C490&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.02.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nasal Breathing and the Nervous System<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the most interesting aspects concerns the relationship between nasal breathing and the brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research published in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.jneurosci.org\/search\/nasal%252Bbreathing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Journal of Neuroscience<\/em> <\/a>indicates that nasal breathing:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>modulates brain wave activity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>influences memory, attention, and emotional regulation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>promotes states of calm alertness compared to mouth breathing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One study observed that nasal breathing is associated with better memory consolidation, while mouth breathing reduces this effect. This suggests that how we breathe can influence not only the body, but also cognitive functions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-794e3cfa wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Open Mouth, Short Breath: Signals to Listen To<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breathing predominantly through the mouth\u2014especially at rest\u2014can be associated with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>dry mouth and throat irritation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>fatigue and difficulty concentrating<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>increased tension in the neck and chest<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>poorer sleep quality and snoring<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is not a matter of \u201cfault,\u201d but of habit. Stress, poor posture, and fast-paced lifestyles easily push us toward rapid, mouth-based breathing, which over time becomes automatic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The good news is that the body can relearn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1016\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?resize=1024%2C1016&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"nasal breathing\" class=\"wp-image-1760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?resize=1024%2C1016&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?resize=300%2C298&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?resize=768%2C762&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/naso.01.jpg?w=1280&amp;ssl=1 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A First Practical Step: Conscious Nasal Breathing Exercise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before introducing more complex breathing rhythms (such as 4-4-8 or 4-7-8), it is useful to stabilize a simple and sustainable foundation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Exercise: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/parasympathetic-breathing-4-6-exercise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nasal Breathing with Prolonged Exhalation<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Sit or lie down in a comfortable position<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inhale through the nose for <strong>4 seconds<\/strong>, without forcing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Exhale slowly through the nose for <strong>6 seconds<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Keep the rhythm smooth, without holding the breath<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Duration: <strong>5\u201310 minutes<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A slightly longer exhalation promotes parasympathetic activation and helps the body \u201ctrust\u201d nasal breathing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Studies on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.br3ath.org\/blog\/2025\/05\/16\/the-effects-of-coherent-breathing-on-heartbeat\/\">Heart Rate Variability<\/a><\/strong> show that this type of breathing improves cardiac coherence and reduces physiological markers of stress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Breathing Through the Nose Is a Daily Choice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nasal breathing does not require long sessions or special tools. It is a choice you can bring into:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>walking<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>moments of pause<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>working or studying<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>before going to sleep<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It does not mean \u201cnever breathing through the mouth\u201d (during intense effort it can happen), but rather returning to the nose as the main reference at rest and during light activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Breathing through the nose is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to make breathing more functional. There is no need to change everything at once: it is enough to begin observing, slowing down, and consciously choosing the right pathway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next month, we will explore how breathing can become a direct tool to regulate stress and the nervous system, integrating rhythm, awareness, and physiology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>One breath at a time.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After rediscovering the importance of a more conscious, diaphragmatic breath, the next step is to rediscover nasal breathing.
