Strange question..Breathing wrong ?
I recently visited an acupuncturist, one of the things he focused, was breathing. He told me to breath in through my nose and OUT through my nose, deeply and slowly. I have never heard of this. I always thought the correct way- was in through your nose out through your mouth, expanding your diaphragm. I even goggled it and couldn’t find anything? Is this guy nuts, or has anyone else heard of this??

I don't know if it is the "right" way but I breathe through my nose unless exercising intensely.

Except for deep deep breaths, I breathe in and out through my nose. I never thought there's a right or wrong way to breathe but it can be a little gross when someone with stinky breath exhales through their mouth.

I breathe in through my nose, but out through my mouth, or in and out of my mouth due to asthma and allergies. My dentist hates it when I breathe using my mouth!

totally agree.
My acupuncturist tells me the same..also breathing through the lowe third of your lungs expanding the diaphragm pushing your lower gut out.
It really relaxes me. I do it in the am and in the pm while lying in bed.
Either way, just breathe!

Re: Strange question..Breathing wrong ?
I have also heard you are breathing "wrong" if when you inhale, you deflate your belly.
You are supposed to inhale and fill your belly and then exhale and empty your belly. I think I do it wrong

I breathe in through my nose and out through my nose
only time i breath out of my mouth is if i'm in pain or trying to relax - its more 'concentrated' breathing i guess

Re: Strange question..Breathing wrong ?
Really? I thought it was the opposite which is why we have nose hairs - to filter out dust, etc. Hmmm.
ETA: Nevermind. I read it wrong. He wants you to breath in AND out through your nose....
