Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Sree, Apart from praying, have you tried the yogic method of nadi shodana. Check this website out: http://www.yogasite.com/nadi.htm In case the information disappears, I will cut and paste below. Nadi Shodhana -- the sweet breath Nadi shodhana, or the sweet breath, is simple form of alternate nostril breathing suitable for beginning and advanced students. Nadi means channel and refers to the energy pathways through which prana flows. Shodhana means cleansing -- so Nadi Shodhana means channel cleaning. Benefits Calms the mind, soothes anxiety and stress, balances left and right hemispheres, promotes clear thinking How to do it Hold your right hand up and curl your index and middle fingers toward your palm. Place your thumb next to your right nostril and your ring finger and pinky by your left. Close the right nostril by pressing gently against it with your thumb, and inhale through the left nostril. The breath should be slow, steady and full. Now close the left nostril by pressing gently against it with your ring finger and pinky, and open your right nostril by relaxing your thumb and exhale fully with a slow and steady breath. Inhale through the right nostril, close it, and then exhale through the left nostril. That's one complete round of Nadi Shodhana -- Inhale through the left Exhale through the right Inhale through the right nostril Exhale through the left Begin with 5-10 rounds and add more as you feel ready. Remember to keep your breathing slow, easy and full. When to do itJust about any time and any where. Try it as a mental warm-up before meditation to help calm the mind and put you in the mood. You can also do it as part of your centering before beginning an asana or posture routine. Also try it at times throughout the day. Nadi Shodhana helps control stress and anxiety. If you start to feel stressed out, 10 or so rounds will help calm you down. It also helps soothe anxiety caused by flying and other fearful or stressful situations. guruvayur , sree revu <sree.revu wrote: > > I dont know what's the reason, but my mind is get disturbed minute by minute.... > Please pray for me.... > > sree.. > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
