鼻呼吸を習慣化しましょう。

　年齢を重ねつつあることから、今までの人生で、つまり、学生時代、その後、職場で出会った数え切れぬほどの人、趣味の世界で知り合った友人たちとは平素会うことがなりました。この世から姿を消された方も多いようです。このため、私が書く記事内容には拙い健康法についてが多くて申し訳ありません。それでも、健康法は誰にでも共通することですから、体験から感じたことを記します。

　８月7日は語呂合わせで「鼻の日」と定められてます。早速、昨日は近くの耳鼻咽喉科に行って診察して戴きました。実はこの耳鼻科で昔、私は手術をしたことがあり、その後も少なく見積もっても２０００回は行ってます。耳鼻科の医師の話では、鼻の構造は複雑で絵では表せないとのことです。立体だからでしょう。ご存知でしょうが、鼻は喉とも耳ともつながってます。しかし、それ以上に大切なことがあります。

　私たちの頭蓋骨の真ん中には、鼻の臓器である篩骨洞と蝶形骨洞があり、一方、額の中には前頭洞があります。この３つの空洞は鼻と繋がっており、空気が通過して「脳を冷やす役目」があると考えられてます。この他、ほっぺの中に上顎洞という空洞があります。このため、平素忘れがちですが、鼻の健康は実に大切で、常に清潔に保ち、空気の通りがよい事が「脳の働きに必須」です。同時に、肺に酸素を送り届け、延いては血液を媒介にして全身に酸素を送り届け、私たちは生命を維持してます。このため、私たちは口呼吸でなく、鼻呼吸を習慣化しましょう。

　一方、鼻はその人の声の特徴をも形成します。姿が見えなくても、誰が話しているか私たちがその人を判断できるのは前述の多くの鼻の臓器に因ります。声楽家に限らず、誰でも鼻の内部を健康にして、良く響く声を心掛けましょう。

Dear my friends abroad

　The simultaneous interpretation for your understanding will be after my radio gymnastics held in the nearby park and breakfast in Japan time.

　As I get older, I no longer meet with the countless people I met in my life, that is, in my student days, at workplace, and friends I met in the world of hobbies. Regrettably it seems that many of them have disappeared from this world. For this reason, I apologize that many of the articles I write about poor way of health. Still, the way of health are common to everyone including young you, so I will write about what I have felt from my clumsy experiences.

　August 7th has been designated as "Nose Day" by punning in Japan. I immediately went to a nearby ENT clinic yesterday in Kuragano-town to get examined. In fact, I had surgery at this ENT clinic 50years ago, and since then I have been there at least 2,000 times. The ENT doctor said that the structure of the nose is very complex beyond description so that it cannot be depicted in a picture. This is because it is three-dimensional. As you know, the nose is connected to the throat and the ears. However, there is something more important than that.

　In the center of our skull are the ethmoid and sphenoid sinuses, which are nasal organs, and in the forehead there are the frontal sinuses. These three cavities are connected to the nose in our face, and it is believed that air passes through them to "cool the brain." In addition, there is a cavity called the maxillary sinus inside the cheek. For this reason, although we tend to forget these existences, nose health is very important, and we should keep it clean and allowing good airflow is "essential for brain function." At the same time, our noses deliver oxygen to the lungs, and then to the entire body via the blood, which helps us to stay alive. For this reason, we should get into the habit of breathing through our noses rather than our mouth.

　On the other hand, the nose also shapes the characteristics of a person's voice the same as face. Even when we cannot see someone, we can tell who is speaking thanks to the many nasal organs mentioned above. Not just vocalists, but everyone should strive to keep the inside of their nose healthy and have a well-resonating voice.
