Could be an advertisement for nasal strips, like Breathe-Right.

Can you describe the details of boxed boxed breathing. Does a seal nap consist of just laying down with your legs elevated for 25 minutes. Or is there more to it?

NAVY SEAL NAP

This nap technique is only for 8 minutes however I do it for 20 because I originally read it as a 20 minute pre REM technique that both Einstein and Edison used. I use my phone timer.

I think Einstein used to sit in a chair and not Elevate his feet and he had a ball in his hand and when he dropped the ball he would wake up. That was the two differences I need to elevate my legs so the elevation aspect is good for me.

I used that strategy in scuba diving to save air and relax. To me it seems that pain such as a toothache or arthritis, diminishes on the exhale.

I’ve been reading research that shows that people in ketosis have an altered Krebs Cycle in the mitochondria production of ATP that decreases CO2 in the blood and results in a decreased need for resparation.

They found free divers could hold their breath longer when in ketosis.
