I’ve been mouth taping every night and even during my at‑home workouts the past 6 years. I’m not quite ready to bring mouth tape to yet, haha, but the difference it has made has been huge. While research on mouth taping is still in its early stages, my own experience has made me a big believer.
Nasal breathing at night has helped me sleep more deeply and breathe less overall. Lowering our respirations per minute supports a shift into a parasympathetic state, which reduces strain on the heart and other organs.
A bonus benefit: it often helps reduce snoring. Better sleep, more morning energy, and less stress on my cardiovascular system? I’ll take it.
Important note: Mouth taping may support nasal breathing for some people, but it isn’t the right choice for everyone and shouldn’t replace a medical evaluation—especially if snoring, fatigue, or breathing difficulties are present.
A healthcare professional can help determine whether there’s an underlying issue, such as a deviated septum or airway obstruction, that needs attention.
