Andien, a popular Indonesian singer, shocked her fans when she posted a lengthy Instagram story about breathing - along with photos of herself, her husband and their two-year-old son with tape over their mouths.
She revealed that her family had been practising something called Buteyko for the past three months. It involves finding ways of breathing through your nose - one of which is taping your mouth closed while you sleep.
Buteyko, Andien claimed, had helped her sleep better, had stopped her from getting dry throat, and had rid her of bad breath.
But does mouth-taping work and, more importantly, is it safe?
