As someone who likes to experiment with this kind of thing I went ahead and tried things like lightly taping my mouth shut while sleeping and was amazed to feel the difference when I didn't do it.

I literally learned to breath properly after reading this book. Took me months to train out of the bad habits I had acquired over the years.
