Recently I heard both James Nestor, author Breathe the lost science of an old art, and David White, inventor of Goodair Nosebuds, describe mouth breathing as “catastrophic” for human wellbeing. Alarmingly, up to 50% of children are regularly mouth breathing - bypassing the primary airway, the nose, designed for healthy respiration. When we breathe through our mouths , we miss filtration, humidity, nitric oxide release, and the sensory feedback that helps regulate our brains and bodies.
Tomas came to me with the goal of reducing his exercise induced asthma and restless sleep. We discussed the “why’s” and “how’s”, providing Tomas with the tools and confidence to better manage his breathing.
Every child needs an individualized approach which the own - one that honors their wellbeing history, habits, sensitivities, and confidence levels. When they feel supported, safe, understood and respected vested their nervous systems settle and real change becomes possible.
Tomas’s Mum shared this “ I honestly don’t have enough words to describe how amazing Tania is. She is one of the most dedicated, knowledgeable, positive and energetic coaches I have ever met”.
Her words mean a lot because a partnership with parents is a huge part of the success.
Small changes, repeated, can reshape how we move, feel, sleep, and perform - breathe well - nose, light, slow and deep.
