BREATHING

Breathing is the only major source over which every human being has some conscious control.

Sit in any comfortable posture. Keep left hand on the left knee. Keep the body and head upright. Close the eyes and relax the body. Place the thumb on the right nostril and ring finger on the left nostril; the mid and index fingers on the eyebrow centre.

Close right nostril with thumb. Inhale and then exhale through left nostril only. Close left nostril with ring finger, open right nostril. Inhale and exhale through right nostril only. Breathe evenly, without break, strain, etc.

The Respiratory passages are cleared of blockage; the blood stream is purified and the brain cells get enough oxygen to stimulate the brain centres.
