Before you try anything tonight, run this quick checklist: Safety first: Do you ever wake up choking, gasping, or with a racing heart? Daytime reality check: Are you fighting sleepiness at your desk or while driving? Partner intel: Has anyone noticed pauses in breathing? Context: Did snoring spike after travel, alcohol, congestion, or a stressful…

Myth: Snoring is just a funny relationship problem—an elbow to the ribs and you’re done. Reality: Snoring is often a sleep-quality problem first.

Snoring is having a moment again—sleep gadgets, “fix your breathing” tips, and wearable data are everywhere. Sleep quality matters more than the noise.
