Origin, history
This training type, as well as "Harmony" and "Power", is derived from Pranayama, and is an ancient Vedic technique of breathing gymnastics - Pranayama. It is also named "Surya Bheda", and is translated from Sanskrit as "Sun (energy) penetration".
In Prana Breath this training type is adapted even for people that don't practice Yoga and/or don't have much time for practice but still need its effect.
Setting the training
- Download this pattern if you don't have it yet.
- Choose this pattern in Training tab or Control tab.
- Set the optimal training complexity so the training brings you joy, yet doesn't seem too easy. Use the options in Control tab and/or Dynamic tab to adjust all parameters.
Training process
- Choose the comfortable position.
- Empty your lungs, breathing out with effort ("Prepare"), through your left nostril.
- Make a full inhaling ("Inhale") though your right nostril.
- Exhale through your left nostril.
- Keep breathing, like this till the end of your training session, following the breath method indicator.
- After you're done, you might take some time for meditating and contemplating yourself.
- NB! Make sure you don't press down on the nostril too hard so the septum is pushed off the center, or so your head starts leaning.
Other questions
How long should I train? How can I combine this pattern with another? Should I always inhale through my nose?
If you have such or other questions, please look through the FAQ page.
