#23From my personal experience I can confirm that breathing right makes a big difference but the article fails to mention one very effective approach in many cases to improve breathing, septoplasty.

#24I've been experimenting with mouth taping recently. When I'm able to use it effectively it does result in a much more restful sleep and my blood pressure seems to be lower the next day.

Unfortunately I'm frequently congested so it's difficult to do this without the use of a decongestant.
You may want to explore using a neti pot for that.

#29Standing up straight isn't as easy as it sounds. For a lot of desk workers you're going to have to fix your tight hamstrings, abnormal pelvic tilt, and weak abdominal muscles before it will be possible to stand up straight.
Sort of anecdotal, but as soon as I started deadlifting I noticed an immediate improvement in standing posture.
