HW: Panayama
Nadi Shodana. A lot of times – especially when life is busy and or stressful our breath can become shallow and can actually continue our stress cycle. In this exercise we will work with rebalancing your breath. Start on a seated position with a straight back. If your hamstrings are tight it may be helpful to sit on a block. For this exercise you will bend your pointer and middle finger and we’ll be using your ring finger and thumb to block the nostrils. For this exercise we will be in hailing for 8 seconds, holding for 8 seconds and exhaling for 8 seconds and will continue this cycle 10 times while switching the nostril we are opening and closing. Feel free to keep your eyes open or closed. To get use started, close your left nostril with your ring finger and inhale 2..3..4..5..6..7..8 block both nostrils for 2..3..4..5..6..7..8 and release through your right nostril. Inhale through the right for 2..3..4..5..6..7..8 and block both nostrils for 2..3..4..5..6..7..8 and exhale through the left nostril for 2..3..4..5..6..7..8. (I would continue this for 8 more cycles).
