Alternate-nostril breathing. Follow the orb, breathe in as it grows, out as it settles, and switch nostrils as cued.
Round 0 of 5
Sit easy, spine long, shoulders soft. Rest your left hand; bring your right to your nose.
Breathe in as it grows, out as it settles. Let the rhythm carry you. There is nothing to count.
Close one nostril, then the other, switching each round. Add inner and outer retention as your practice deepens.
A practical timer for inhale, hold, exhale, and hold ratios with presets and custom rounds.
