@becleartoday Your: "or breathing more shallowly" made me think of how important it is. I finally learned to do, to do deep breaths in to hopefully get the saline deep down into the lungs. Deep breaths, hold and from what I understand we are to slowly breathe out with some resistance as you breath out...as if blowing on a whistle.
Does that last part sound right.....resistance..... as if blowing on a whistle???

@blm1007blm1007 It sounds right to me - my speech therapist had me practice blowing out through straws - first one for a milkshake, then a regular one, and finally through a coffee-stirrer, to get the point. I also blow a kazoo for strengthening my lungs. Maybe some day I'll be able to play the trumpet again?🤣
