Left Nostril Breathing for Calming

MeditationBreathworkCalming
Written By Shanti Krishna
 

Left Nostril Breathing Breathing through the left nostril activates the Ida and is associated with:

  • Apana, the cleansing energy

  • Moon energy—cooling, receptive

  • Calmness, inner peace

  • Empathy

  • Sensitivity    

  • Synthesis

The Practice

When your energy is racing and you need to calm and soothe your nervous system, close the eyes, block the right nostril with the thumb of the right hand, and breathe long and deep through the left nostril for 3-5 minutes.
