“There’s a nose-blocking exercise which helps you with that, the more you sleep-breathe through your nose, the better you get at it.”<\/p>\n
Julia added: “It’s just a little tiny bit of tape that goes from underneath my nose to underneath my bottom lip. And it just means it promotes my nasal breathing during the night.”<\/p>\n
The presenter went on to urge anyone who feels nervous about the method to practise during the day, such as when sitting on a laptop.<\/p>\n
According to Healthline, it\u2019s healthier to breathe through your nose instead of your mouth as it helps your body effectively use the air you inhale.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s estimated that about 30 to 50 percent of adults breathe through their mouth, especially earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t define you, but it shapes you,\u201d she said of her diagnosis.<\/p>\n “It might sound like a weird thing to say, but I\u2019m actually grateful for my diagnosis because it made me re-examine my life.”<\/p>\n Some of the ways she altered were cutting out alcohol and only eating during 10am to 6pm.<\/p>\n She spilled: “I have a really healthy diet, full of vegetables, fats and protein. What I don\u2019t do any more is have buckets of ice cream and chocolate brownies.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve also cut out booze, as alcohol can increase the risk of recurrence, and I\u2019ve probably done enough drinking in my life.<\/p>\n \u201cThe question is, \u2018Do I want that feeling again, or do I want to stay alive?\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
