What a ridiculous post. Please leave the Reddit pseudoscience at the door.

There are researchers actively working and studying people with sleep apnea. They're not suffering from "forward head posture" or "breathing wrong".

I have severe sleep apnea and no amount of "breathing exercises" are going to cause my soft palate to uncollapse itself while I'm trying to get REM sleep.

Do you run regularly?

Overweight by chance?

I've put on a bit of weight sunce having kids and my breathing at night is much worse than before.

		You have no idea what you're talking about and it shows by what you choose to type. It's not exclusively caused by fitness or lack thereof. A cursory Google search would show you this. It's not "breathing at night", it's literally suffocating in your sleep. This place used to be full of intellectuals. It's a real shame.

Its been established head posture is a factor. It’s also intuitive - the posture of your head affects the angle of your airway. This is why some patients wear cervical braces to sleep.

Yes! It is a shame that this kind of nonsense gets upvoted. Pure snake oil.
