- y-curious 3y agoI help run a Myofunctional Therapy business (Happy Myo in NYC) with my mother and she's a huge fan of humming as a tool. Did you come up with this on your own? Good intuition! I'm glad to see more and more focus on breathing in the media lately.
- horsawlarway 3y agoYeah, mostly just a thing I've been doing since I was a kid, but I've been paying a lot of attention to breathing lately (blood pressure...) and I get notably less negatives sitting at a computer if I'm humming along to music. If I just sit here silently, I often notice cold hands/feet and a blood pressure spike. Often associated with intermittent sighs or irregular breathing. Humming just forces me to breathe. I can't keep humming if I don't have air, and it's a good regulator to keep me breathing without having to really think about it.
