Watch the baby's breathing - does he breathe a nose? Watch: How does a child sleep, how to breathe when he is passionate about the game? Bad, if the lips of the child are revealed even by 2 mm. Owl breathing leads to drying mucosa, traumatization and, as a result, to adenoinitis. When we breathe mouth, together with cold air, inhale many viruses and bacteria, dust, allergens, exhaust gases. When we breathe the nose - the air is warmed, cleaned, moistened, and the blood is immediately enriched with oxygen. A healthy person should breathe only his nose. For this there are special exercises.
For example: pull the lips, tightly close and hold for 6 seconds (you can conduct an invoice), add to it smooth head tilts up and down (6 times). Repeat every day and as often as possible.
