s a writer, I've always imagined having a little shop where I could share my favorite books with my readers, and now, with the magic of the Internet, here it is!

Breathing is the most basic necessity of health to the human body--it cannot live without air for more than a few minutes. So making sure our breathing is optimum seems to me to be the most important foundation of health.
Over fifty years ago, Russian scientist Dr Konstantin Buteyko observed that the correct volume of breath is fundamental to maintaining good health and asserts that we actually breathe too much air. Since many toxic chemicals are airborne and come into our bodies through inhalation, if we are breathing in more air than our bodies require, we are also bringing in more toxic chemicals than are necessary. Hyperventilation can also cause many health problems on its own. This book offers a simple program of breath retraining through the nose (thus the title "Close Your Mouth"), the nose being perfectly designed for breathing. Correct breathing results in our bodies being in their natural state of healthy function--all organs and tissues receive the oxygen they need, enabling them to function as they should. Benefits reported include improvement in respiratory complaints, increased calmness, higher energy levels, better sleep, weight loss, normalization of blood sugar, and a reduction of "mind chatter."
