From Dhanurasana to Bhujangasana, here are a few yoga asanas that can help in easing breathing and reducing snoring.

Snoring is a chronic condition faced by a lot of people. It usually happens when the air flow in the throat gets restricted, causing sudden pauses in breathing. Sometimes snoring is associated with the medical condition called Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Obstructive Sleep Apnea happens when the muscles in the back of the throat relax too much, causing difficulty in breathing. Snoring, in small amounts is not much of a health issue, however, when the intensity increases, it can become a serious problem. Symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea include excessive daytime sleeping, headache in the morning, gasping or choking, chest pain, high blood pressure and sore throat after getting up from sleep.
