Alternate Nostril Breathing For Support And Resourcing
by Larissa Link
We'll utilize alternate nostril breathing, or Nadi Shodhana (from the Sanskrit: nadi = channel, vessel - shodhana = cleansing, purifying), to support this meditation practice. This style of breathing offers us not only deep concentration and focus, but physiological benefits like harmonizing your brain hemispheres and improving respiratory function, and perhaps more importantly, gives you moments of mental clarity. Your steady breath can slow you down just enough to find a pause, so you can take wise action instead of reacting. Take this time to resource yourself, restore your stable ground, and create the respite you need in this moment. (You will hear my cat make a sweet little sound in the background near the end).
