Stuff on the net is all over the place and not really easy to grasp.

As I initially mentioned, mouth breathing lends itself to shallow breathing and can have a negative impact on the muscles of your neck and upper back/chest. In recognizing that I have a tendency to breathe through my mouth most of the time, I committed to breathing through my nose instead. At the same time, I've been cognizant of breathing using my diaphragm (being aware of the movement when breathing in and out). That's really all I've done and have seen dramatic results.
