Repost @heidikristoffer who's taking us through her sleep boosting breathing ritual TONIGH! Join us via the link in bio 💤🙏💫 Did you wake up tired because you are having trouble getting your zzzs? Alternate Nostril Breathing / Nadi Shodhana Pranayama is my favorite yoga breathing technique for bed time (or when my nerves or ANXIETY decide to kick in!). It encourages deep relaxation by balancing the left and right sides of the brain while calming the nervous system.
.
.
Try it:
Sit comfortably in or next to your bed (cross-legged, kneeling, propped up on blankets, or any way that feels the best for you), resting your left hand on your left thigh. .
.
Take your right hand with the fingers extended like you are waving at someone and bend your peace fingers (pointer and middle finger) so they curl into your palm.
Rest your right ring finger and thumb on either side of your nostrils, lightly touching them but not constricting. Take a big breath in through your nose, and a big breath out, then close off the right nostril with your thumb and inhale through the left nostril fully for a count of four. At the top of that breath, close off the left nostril with your ring finger, hold and retain the breath for a count of four, and then release the right nostril and exhale for a count of four.
.
.

Next, inhale deeply for a count of four through the right nostril, close it off, hold and retain the breath for a count of four, and then release the left nostril as you exhale completely through it for a count of four. Proceed to inhale deeply through the left, repeating the cycle.
.
.

Do this as many rounds as you like, being sure to exhale through the left nostril to complete your last cycle. Once you are done, lie down in bed and drift away!
