We yawn both voluntarily and involuntarily. Sometimes, we yawn intentionally to equalize the pressure in our ears, a well-accepted reason for yawning. However, yawning is often an involuntary reflex triggered by the brain, not as a sign of sleepiness or boredom, but as a way to wake you up or make you more alert. Yawning releases certain hormones that briefly increase heart rate and alertness, which is why we tend to yawn when we're bored or tired—it's the body's way of keeping us awake and attentive, even if just for a short period. https://planetgim.co.ke/2024/08/23/things-you-might-not-know-about-yawning/
