So you are a snorer? Snoring is the butt of many jokes, but it is not that funny when you or even worse, your partner, snores.



The snoring can be soft and short in duration which makes it a small problem, but when it is quite loud, lasting for large parts of the night it can be seriously disruptive. Being continually awakened through the night can have not only both emotional and mental effects by physiological effects as well.

When there is a need, there will be products. And so it is with snoring. Untold devices and contraptions are available to try to help the snorer be quiet.Some of them work somewhat, and some not at all. one of the problems is that people snore for a variety of reasons and these devices are for the most part only a band aid.

Using a chin strap may bring temporary relief, so may that new pillow as long as you lay on it just in the right way. But since these devices do nothing to correct the cause of the snoring the snoring will return as soon as the device is not used. Not very helpful.

Then there are other natural means such a doing yoga, breathing exercises, sewing a golf ball into the back of your pajama etc. and these can work to some degree, but we are still not getting to the CAUSE of the snoring.

Addressing the CAUSE of the snoring which is usually A. A weak soft palate. B.Narrow nasal passages. C.Stuffy nose from a cold or allergies. D.Muscles in the throat are weak. E. Muscles supporting the jaw are too tense. And the most common reason: The tongue falls into the throat as you relax and partially blocks the airways.

This is great news. In the same way, (but much easier) you exercise other muscles for tone, the muscles and tissue around your airways can be toned and strengthened by spending a few minutes per day doing easy and pleasant exercises. With toned muscles in your throat and jaw and tongue, your snoring will only exist in your memory. (And in your partner's)
