the stillness - alternate nostril breathing (7 mins)
The At-Home Retreat

6m 53s
Alternate nostril breathing is an ancient yogic practice otherwise known as nadi shodhana pranayama - meaning to "cleanse". Its also said to help balance the different hemispheres of the brain. Truly, the benefits that I most notice is that it keeps me present. I show you a couple different hand placements to accomplish this - more traditional and then a simpler version.
Give it a go and let me know how you like it!
