读过 Breath 🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
1. 呼吸要用鼻子，口腔虽然也可以呼吸，却只应做辅助。睡觉时用胶带封嘴，可以有效的减少打鼾。
2. 呼吸要轻柔，缓慢，学会降低呼吸频率，对身体和精神都有好处。5.5 bpm的呼吸练习可以尝试，此法是5.5秒钟吸气，5.5秒钟呼气，一分钟呼吸5.5次。一个叫做Breathing Zone的app可用做引导。
3. 肺活量越大，人的抗病能力和寿命就越高，可以用运动和屏息练习两种方式来增加肺活量。
4. 多吃硬的食物，多多咀嚼，可以改善口腔和面部结构，使之更利于顺畅呼吸。
5. 适当的屏息练习会让人提更有效的利用氧气，变得更有活力，耐力，抗力。
书中还介绍了许多呼吸法。

No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly.
There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat 25,000 times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences.
Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe.
Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is.
Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.
