Nose breathing

Hi, David.
I have a question about nose breathing. You say that nose should be closed (also Winslow Yerxa teaches that way), but Joe Filisko says that we can exhale through the harmonica (his "nose push" tip). Can You help somthing about it?
Greetings from Poland.

PS. Sorry for gramattic :-)

I really care about proper
I really care about proper breathing and I pay attention to it when I practice. I think it takes time to learn correct breathing and maybe it comes by itself, but I just want to be sure that I'm going right way.
Thanks a lot!

Hello Gabriel. You're correct, the Nose Push is an important technique for breath balance, but at first, harmonica players are struggling with a lot of new techniques, so I don't mention this until later lessons. If you would like to work on it now, reference Joe's lessons and mine on this page https://www.bluesharmonica.com/faq (watch the video titled, "I run out of breath so easily!")
