How to Play the Didgeridoo

How to Play the Didgeridoo

The didgeridoo is one of the most exotic and interesting woodwind instruments being used today. The native population of Australia, the Aboriginals, developed it, but no one knows how old it is. The Aboriginals believed that the didgeridoo was an important part of the creation of the world.

Traditionally, the Aboriginals made didgeridoos from hollowed out eucalyptus or bamboo stalks. You can find didgeridoos in a number of materials in today’s market, from Agave cactus stalks and any number of woods, as well as from plastic, fiberglass and other man-made materials.

The first step in playing the didgeridoo is to stretch your mouth by opening wide and moving your jaw. Place your lips around the mouthpiece, creating an airlock. The didgeridoo is similar to a tuba in this respect.

How the Didgeridoo Can Help Your Snoring

How the Didgeridoo Can Help Your Snoring

In 2006,Swiss researchers reported that playing the didgeridoo can reduce snoring. The didgeridoo is a musical instrument that produces a droning sound. It is a traditional instrument of Australian Aborigines.

The intriguing study was prompted after a didgeridoo teacher reported that some of his students experienced less snoring and daytime tiredness after a few months of practice.

7 Unusual Ways to Treat Snoring & Sleep Apnea

7 Unusual Ways to Treat Snoring & Sleep Apnea

If you suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, and you’re frustrated with conventional treatment options, you may feel an urge to look at alternative options. If you spend enough time researching this, you’ll find a number of strange, interesting and sometimes bizarre ways of treating sleep apnea. To save you some time, I’ve listed 7 unusual ways below, along with my personal opinions for why it may or may not work:

1. Singing for snorers. There are various programs that teach snorers ways of singing to tighten throat and tongue muscles which in theory can lessen the severity of snoring. I haven’t see any scientific studies validating this method, but I can imagine that singing in general can make you feel good. Singing or speaking is activated by the vagus nerve, which is a part of the parasympathetic nervous system, which is the relaxation half of the involuntary nervous system.

When you spend a longer time exhaling than inhaling, you’ll definitely feel better.
