“My teacher told me that it’s incorrect to breathe through the mouth,” she said. “He said that in qigong and tai chi the breathing should be in and out through the nose.”

This question comes up all the time in my Facebook group.

Sometimes, it’s more of a challenge than a question, as if to say: “Why are you doing it wrong, Anthony?!?”

I’m not doing it wrong.

This video explains why. It’s a replay of a live broadcast that I did on Facebook. You can watch it below, or you can click the little “f” button below and watch it on Facebook. (Note: if you want to read the comments, you’ll have to watch it on Facebook.)

If you have any questions, feel free to post them below this blog post.
