What can you tell about your health from looking at your eyes? 

Nichole teaches us that there's ALOT to learn, including some personality traits, state of the adrenals, whether parasites are a strain on the boy as well as some constitutional characteristics. That's just scratching the surface! Grab a mirror and a flashlight and learn about what your eyes may be telling you!

We've talked about sleep as a vital building block to health, but what if you can't get great sleep because you snore or have sleep apnea? Airway restriction could play a role in this. We've also gone over the importance of stress-reducing practices, getting the body into the calming rest-and-digest phase, but what if you can't because you're always breathing through your mouth (which triggers a fight or flight response)? So many connections with our tongue and breath to our greater big picture health. In this episode I get to talk with Orofacial MyoFunctional Therapist and Airway specialist Catherine Kangas. We discuss the importance of nasal breathing, tongue placement and posture, as well as tongue tie revision.
