Left Nostril Breathing

SPECIAL MOON HEALING TECHNIQUE WITH MOON MANTRA AND PRANAYAMA

The word “Chandra” is stands for the Moon and the meaning of Bhedan is piercing, enter or breaking through something e.t.c. and it is also known as Chandra bhedi pranayama. We have two nostrils for breathing, in yogic term these two nostrils are called nadi, Right nostril is surya nadi and left nostril is known as Chandra nadi. There is another name for this Ida nadi (left nostril) and Pingala nadi (right nostril). Chandra Bhedana Pranayama is the simple and effective breathing technique. Moon is the symbol of coolness, so by doing this pranayam we feel some coolness in our body. Best and effective breathing process for cooling down the body. In this breathing exercise breathe in (inhalation) is done by the left nadi and we breathe out through the right nadi or right nostril. So this process is named as left nostril breathing or Anuloma type of pranayam. It is afore said that energy passes through Ida nadi (Chandra nadi) on the inhalation and by Pingala or Surya Nadi on the exhalation. 

Perform pranayam with empty stomach.

Om Kshira Puthraya Vidhmahe Amrit Tatvaya Dheemahi Tanno Chandrah Prachodayat”

ॐ क्षीरपुत्राय विद्महे अमृतत्त्वाय धीमहि। तन्नो चन्द्र: प्रचोदयात्

5- Now hold your breath for some time or as per your capacity and chant the moon gayatri once again.

6- Breathe out (exhale) slowly through right nadi.

(Exhalation should be longer than the inhalation)

While exhaling chant the moon gayatri mantra two times. So the cycle of chanting mantra is one time while inhaling, one time while holding, and one time while exhaling.
