question: why do some kriyas have postures only on 1 side?

[Guest guest]

I am hoping someone can answer my student's question.

 

We did a kriya focusing on the adrenals and kidneys for stress.

 

There was one exercise where we stretched out one hand while chanting " har, har,

har " - but we did not switch to the other hand. The kriya says that it works on

one side of the adrenals.

 

My student's specific question is: Why wouldn't we switch to the other hand to

work on the other side of the adrenals?

 

Also, he asked, in general, there are some sets where we only work on one side

of the body. Why is that?

 

Thanks for your answers. I find this group very helpful!

If you were doing the Stress Set for Kidneys and Adrenals, exercise 2 is for one

side of the adrenals, and exercise 3 is for the other side. The exercise with

the hand out is then exercise 4, and does not specify the effect fo that

particular exercise. So - both sides of the adrenals are taken care of.

Sat Nam Sat Prem,

 

I know some exercises are only done on one side because they are supposed to

stimulate the liver. However, I am not sure about this exercise for the

adrenals. Hopefully, someone else will have the answer.
