Founder Story

Hi there! I'm Michael, the founder of Breath Sleep Tape. Let me share with you how my journey with sleep tape began and why I'm incredibly passionate about this product.

As far back as I can remember, I was a chronic mouth breather. I often woke up feeling parched and thirsty in the middle of the night, struggling to find restful sleep. Even as a child, my friends would playfully mimic my heavy breathing, impersonating me by exaggerating their breaths through their mouths.

In December 2022, everything changed when I was given a life-changing book called "Breath" by James Nestor as a Christmas present from my girlfriend. This eye-opening read revealed the profound impact of proper breathing on our health and well-being. Inspired and determined to optimize my own health, I experimented with various methods mentioned in the book.

One method that particularly intrigued me was using mouth tape during sleep to promote nasal breathing. Despite initial skepticism, I decided to give it a try. Within weeks, the results were astonishing. My energy levels soared, my productivity skyrocketed, and my overall fitness improved significantly. Most importantly, my sleep quality transformed. No more waking up parched or struggling to breathe through the night. Instead, I woke up feeling refreshed and revitalized.

As an adult, I've always been a fitness fanatic—running, playing football semi-professionally, and weightlifting were integral parts of my life. However, it wasn't until I discovered the power of nasal breathing during my workouts that my fitness levels truly skyrocketed.

I started running with my mouth closed, forcing myself to breathe through my nose, and even wearing tape to encourage nasal breathing. The results were nothing short of remarkable. I experienced incredible improvements in my endurance, stamina, and overall performance. Nasal breathing not only enhanced my athletic abilities but also contributed to my overall well-being.

Inspired by my personal fitness journey and the impact of nasal breathing, I became passionate about exploring this concept further. While there may not be extensive studies yet, my goal with Breath Sleep Tape is to contribute to the understanding of how nasal breathing can optimize athletic performance and overall wellness.

Driven by my personal transformation and a newfound passion for helping others experience similar benefits, I founded Breath Sleep Tape. Our mission is simple yet powerful: to empower individuals to live fuller, more energized, and vibrant lives through better sleep.

I invite you to join us on this journey to better sleep and improved well-being. Together, let's reclaim our sleep and transform our lives. Here's to a brighter, healthier future!

Warm Regards,

Michael
