2 weeks ago, I was complaining of headache to my colleague and she told me to breathe through one side of my nose. She said she received an email saying about breathing therapy. And she forwarded me the email too.
Here's what she sent to me:
Left nose, right nose breathing therapy
We have left, right nose, is that the same for inhale and exhale?
Actually they are different, can feel the difference; right side represent the sun, left side represent the moon.
When having headache, try to close right nose and use your left nose to do your breathing, about 5 min, headache will be gone.
If you feel tired, do it the opposite round, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose. After a while, you will feel your
mind is fresh again.
Right side belongs to heat, so it gets hot easily, left side belongs to cold.
Most of the girls breathe with their left nose, so their heart gets cold easily.
Most of the guys breathe with their right nose, so they get angry easily
Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or right?
If left is faster, you will feel tired. So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refresh quickly
This can be taught to kids, but the effect will be better if apply by elders.
I used to have headache, it was so painful, go to doctor, doctor told me:
it will be all right if you married! (All audience laugh), doctor does not bullshit, what he said is supported with proofs.
That time, every night I am having headache problem, not able to study, I did take medicine, but that is not a good way.
One night, I sit down and close my right nose and breathe with left nose, less than one week, my headache problem is gone! I continue to do it one month, from that night until today, headache does not attack me anymore.
This is what I experienced myself, I told others, if headache, can try this way, because this is effective for me. Many people have tried and it works for them as well. This is a natural therapy, not like medicine, taking for long term will get side effect. So, why not try it out?
Always breathing your body can feel very relax.

Wow, I never know about this left right nose breathing.... so interesting.
that's the first time I heard about it too.
Wah...powers of healing eh.
Speaking of which, you've been tagged! (http://kinigu.blogspot.com/2008/01/tag.html)
Clement, thanks for the tag, would take a while to finish the tag though. 🙂
We do this kind of breathing in yoga lessons too! but hor, i have sinus and one of my nosetrils is perpetually blocked. hence it was very challenging for me to do this kind of breathing. somemore quite embarassing coz of loud sound when i inhale and exhale thru the blocked side. =_=
if you enjoy breathing exercises, there are quite a few others which i enjoy doing during yoga classes. some really warms up your body after a few breathes!! esp good in cold weather!
