Nadi Shodhana Pranayama

Please join me in this quick demonstration video practice of Nadi Shodhana Pranayama. Nadi Shodhana means Alternate Nostril Breathing using the conch shell gesture to gently clear pranic blockages and balance Ida and Pingala Nadis directing energy towards Shushumna Nadi which leads to deep states of meditation. It also harmonizes the vayus (the different pranic winds in the vital energy body). With this practice you nourish the entire body and establish calm rhythm to the brain and heart balancing sympathetic and parasympathetic systems in the ANS (autonomic nervous system) and many other physical, psychological, energetic, and health benefits.
