How to Clear Stuffy Nose in 1 Min (Easy Breathing Exercise)

How to Clear Stuffy Nose in 1 Min (Easy Breathing Exercise)

This simple breathing exercise (how to clear stuffy nose or get rid of nasal congestion) was developed by Russian doctors practicing the Buteyko breathing method. Around 200 physicians taught this home remedy to their patients with blocked noses.

Over 85% of the people who tried this natural treatment could make their clear stuffy nose in less than 1 minute if they followed the instructions correctly. This remedy has been tested on more than 50,000 people.

Why stuffy nose problem is so common?


Hyperventilation History Graph

Numerous medical studies have shown that modern people or "normal subjects" breathe about two times more air than what is considered the norm. Hence, overbreathing and a lack of CO2 further constrict blood vessels and airways. In addition, hypocapnia (CO2 deficiency) creates tissue hypoxia (low body-oxygen content), and this suppresses the immune system. As a result, your sinuses become the breeding ground for bacteria, viruses, fungi, and other pathogens. It has been shown in Buteyko's research that the reason that one's nose gets blocked or stuffy is due to a CO2 deficiency that in turn is caused by breathing too much.

Instructions: How to Clear Stuffy Nose in 1 Min

Woman with stuffy or blocked nose Sit down and after your usual exhalation, pinch your nose to hold your breath, while nodding your head up and down. Hold your breath as long as possible but remember to breathe only through your nose when you later release your nose to make an inhalation. When you get a strong desire to breathe, release the nose and take a small gentle inhalation (not as much as you want). Then, for the exhalation just relax your body muscles.

For your next breath in, take a small inhale, and relax for the exhale. Your goal is to breathe less air than before this breathing exercise, but with total relaxation of all body muscles. Hence, you are going to have an air hunger or the desire to breathe more for about 1-2 minutes.

How to sleep with a stuffy nose

You can fall asleep faster while by applying the same breathing remedy. Yes, the same exercise helps to get to sleep fast.

Reduced breathing to clear a stuffy or blocked nose

In less than 1 or, maximum, 2 minutes you will notice that your stuffy nose gets clear. Your next goal is to continue this reduced breathing, to clear stuffy nose all the time.

Most likely, the nose will get blocked later (e.g., at night during sleep). If it does happen, you will need to learn the technique that is called "mouth taping". Search this website for the manual that is called "How to maintain nasal breathing 24/7" or see the Resources below.

This extremely popular YouTube video "How to Get Rid of a Stuffy Nose" (clear stuffy nose in 40 seconds) explains this breathing exercise.

How does it help to get rid of a clear stuffy nose?

How does it work? When you hold your breath and do some physical movements (nodding your head or walking, but with the nose pinched), your airways, lungs, blood-and-body cells, including the stuffy nose, accumulate more carbon dioxide. CO2 is the most powerful known vasodilator and dilator of all tubular layers of smooth muscles, including those in the sinuses, bronchi, and bronchioles. As a result, airways dilate and this leads to quick relief of nasal congestion. Additional effects are due to the dilation of arteries and arterioles when arterial CO2 is increased. CO2-induced vasodilation improves blood-and-oxygen supply to your stuffy nose (see CO2-related links for clinical studies).

Both of these mechanisms, vasodilation, and dilation of airways, have physiological similarities since the expansion mechanism is based on the relaxation of all smooth muscles of the human body due to the higher CO2 content in the arterial blood.

The permanent solution to have clear stuffy nose 24/7

The solution to all these airway-constriction problems is to increase your body CO2-and-oxygen content 24/7 by reducing your breathing. There is a simple body-oxygen test that provides the criterion (a number for you to achieve) for a clear nose, more energy, better sleep, etc… It is provided right here below.

If your score is higher than 20 seconds on this body-oxygen test (a special breath holding time test), your nose will be clear all the time. If your body oxygen level drops below 20 s (e.g., after meals, due to mouth breathing, supine sleep, allergies, during night sleep, etc.), you will start to mouth breathe (causing the advance of pathogens, constriction of airways, and other effects of the overbreathing) and will again need to clear stuffy nose of its extra mucus.

In order to achieve a good body-oxygen level, you have to change your automatic breathing pattern. You need to make it slower and lighter (have easier breathing, in contrast to the heavy breathing that you likely have now). This goal can be achieved if you practice breathing exercises and follow a natural lifestyle for higher body-oxygen content.

This is a big deal for me! I thought I couldn't breathe through my nose because it was dry or I was dehydrated so it would keep pounding water lol. At first, it didn't work as well because I inhaled like you would before going underwater, but instead, you exhale. Secondly, I thought I should walk 25-30 steps and sit down and inhale. However, I'm in pretty good cardio shape and I realized that you need to push it to your limit like your a kid trying to hold their breath underwater. So then once I exhaled and walked closer to 60 steps, boom I could breathe through my nose like magic after I was completely stuffed! push yourself hard before you take that first breath and you will get the best result. It is cool to know that if the issue of being stuffed returns, I now know why overbreathing) and how to correct it. This is very reassuring, I have experienced some anxiety related to breathing and this is extremely liberating and empowering to understand! Thanks for sharing this!

I cannot thank you enough to relieve me of this longstanding respiration problem I've had for over 2 years now. This is an excellent example of how we tend to overcomplicate things that are pretty simple in life. I followed this technique from (https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/1xwrup/eli5why_does_my_nose_stuff_up_when_i_sitlay_down/) to this post and it was as if I've cured myself of an incurable disease without any medication etc. The doctors prescribed allergy medication, nasal sprays, etc. and I tried neti pot irrigation, nasal inhalers, etc. over months/years which only suppressed the irritation a bit for a very short duration with some side effects too, and then it was back again. Since this was not the standard "disease", I didn't pursue it with the doctors further considering the treatment didn't seem to help much making my more dependent on steroids. The symptoms varied with seasons and times of the day but were always around. Not having a good sound sleep impacted my work and life overall as I felt low in energy and not in my best form. Worse was not being able to have a good conversation or be an active participant in meetings with this blocked out the nose. This is a sincere thank you from the bottom of my heart and I hope this continues to help others who might be suffering from a similar problem.

It's been two weeks that I started with this breathing technique and am full of energy now as I can breathe normally again instead of breathing with my mouth. I don't even have to follow the technique as the normal nose breathing is back now. A good night's sleep feels priceless compared to waking up multiple times in the past due to a fully blocked nose or a dried-out mouth/throat.
Thank you again.
Peace

I suffered from allergies since I was young and I believe when a person experiences something stressful or traumatic that the pattern of breathing can change causing hyperventilation breathing that once learned is hard to go back to normal breathing. It does take a lot of concentration and time to get back to more relaxed breathing. After 26 years of a year-round runny or stuffy nose, I finally through away my allergy pills and nasal decongestion spray!! I'm very thankful for the info from this website! I'll spread the word!

Breathe out, then pinch your noses, bob head up and down, then breathe in gently through your nose. You'll have at least partially unblocked your nose, and keep breathing in and out gently through your nose for at least 2 minutes so you better be sitting and not doing any physical activity.
