Shut Your Mouth And Save Your Life (1870)

Shut Your Mouth And Save Your Life is a book written by George Catlin in 1870. The book is a fascinating account of Catlin's travels and experiences with Native American tribes in the mid-19th century. Catlin was an artist and writer who spent years living among various tribes, observing their customs, and documenting their way of life. The book focuses on the importance of breathing through the nose rather than the mouth, and how this simple act can have a profound impact on overall health and well-being. Catlin argues that the Native Americans he encountered had a much better understanding of the importance of nasal breathing than the European settlers who had come to America. Catlin's book is a mixture of scientific observation, personal anecdotes, and cultural analysis. He describes in detail the various practices and customs of the tribes he encountered, including their diet, exercise routines, and spiritual beliefs. He also provides a fascinating insight into the differences between Native American and European culture, and the impact these differences had on the health and well-being of the people. Overall, Shut Your Mouth And Save Your Life is a unique and insightful book that offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Native American tribes and their way of life.
