Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art

Breath is one of the most engaging books I have come across in some time.  Author James Nestor is a gifted writer that also has an excellent voice if you like audiobooks.

Centuries of cultural and scientific studies link mouth breathing to all manner of mental and physical disorders, from crooked teeth to asthma, anxiety, attention deficit hyperactivity, sexual dysfunction, insomnia, sleep apnea, snoring, heart disease, hypertension and a myriad of others.  Well worth a mull.

New Year’s Resolution:  keep that mouth shut!
