Hi, my name is Danielle,
1
00:00:03.920 --> 00:00:08.300
and we are going to practice a meditation for balancing.
2
00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:14.100
So if you'd like, please take a comfortable seat. This is best done seated.
3
00:00:14.520 --> 00:00:18.100
So allowing the crown to reach up towards the sky, the top of your head,
4
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:20.780
and rooting down through your tailbone.
5
00:00:21.790 --> 00:00:25.060
We're gonna practice a breathing technique called naty chona,
6
00:00:25.350 --> 00:00:27.740
which is an alternate breathing practice.
7
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:33.420
So take your middle finger and your index finger and place them right at
8
00:00:33.420 --> 00:00:36.220
between your brows. That's called your third eye.
9
00:00:37.130 --> 00:00:40.820
Take your pinky or ring finger, whichever is more available to you,
10
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:43.820
and hover that over your left nostril.
11
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:46.900
And then take your thumb and hover that over your right nostril.
12
00:00:48.040 --> 00:00:50.820
You can close your eyes for this if you'd like, but it's not required.
13
00:00:52.090 --> 00:00:53.660
Take a deep breath in through your nose.
14
00:00:56.190 --> 00:00:57.880
Deep breath out of your nose.
15
00:01:01.930 --> 00:01:04.820
Take one more breath like that to start. Breathe in
16
00:01:08.480 --> 00:01:09.313
and breathe out.
17
00:01:14.320 --> 00:01:18.380
So we'll plug up the left nostril first using the ring finger or the pinky
18
00:01:18.380 --> 00:01:21.700
finger, leaving the right nostril open.
19
00:01:21.880 --> 00:01:23.500
So take a breath in through the right,
20
00:01:26.150 --> 00:01:28.860
close it with your thumb open up the left side.
21
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:31.180
Exhale through the left nostril.
22
00:01:35.440 --> 00:01:36.460
Inhale through the left,
23
00:01:39.870 --> 00:01:43.380
close the left nostril. Open up the right exhale.
24
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:48.140
Inhale through the right,
25
00:01:52.030 --> 00:01:56.020
close it up, releasing the left nostril to exhale.
26
00:01:59.250 --> 00:02:02.060
Keep this going on your own, making sure you breathe in
27
00:02:04.170 --> 00:02:05.740
through the nostril that's open,
28
00:02:05.870 --> 00:02:08.900
close it and exhale through the opposite nostril.
29
00:02:11.890 --> 00:02:13.700
What this does is creates balance
30
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:17.060
in the energetic body,
31
00:02:20.600 --> 00:02:22.740
so really bringing the right and left sides
32
00:02:26.010 --> 00:02:26.843
into harmony.
33
00:02:31.720 --> 00:02:33.610
This is your first time practicing this.
34
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:37.370
Take your time.
35
00:02:40.550 --> 00:02:43.690
Really focus on breathing in through the nostril
36
00:02:46.870 --> 00:02:49.530
and breathing out through the opposite nostril.
37
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:56.410
Breathing in through that same nostril
38
00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:01.460
and exhale through the opposite.
39
00:03:06.650 --> 00:03:09.060
Take one more round on your own. Breathe in
40
00:03:17.100 --> 00:03:20.800
and we will end our exhale out through the left nostril.
41
00:03:30.150 --> 00:03:32.330
And once you've completed that final round,
42
00:03:32.940 --> 00:03:35.370
allow your palms to turn down onto your lap
43
00:03:36.910 --> 00:03:41.730
and maybe take a brief moment to observe if there's any shift
44
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:44.650
from when we started.
45
00:03:47.310 --> 00:03:52.210
And this is a beautiful practice to engage in on a regular
46
00:03:52.340 --> 00:03:56.290
basis, especially if you have a lot of energy in the right side,
47
00:03:56.300 --> 00:03:57.610
which is your sun side.
48
00:03:58.420 --> 00:04:02.050
Maybe you need to balance that out with a little more lunar energy on the left.
49
00:04:03.070 --> 00:04:06.810
So practice this at home, at your office, wherever you are,
50
00:04:07.470 --> 00:04:08.770
and have a beautiful day.
