In this intermediate pranayama practice, Travis will guide you through an advanced variation of alternate nostril breathing, taught by the prolific yogi Krishnamacharya. The breath ratio will be a 4 inhale-4 hold-8 exhale-4 hold count with bandhas. This practice balances out both hemispheres of the brain in addition to activating the healing response of the body.
This is a great pranayama practice. I had been suffering from something akin to asthma after having a head cold quite some time ago. This practice really helped to deepen my breath and guess what……asthma like symptoms are just about gone.

I would highly recommend planning to slip right into meditation after this breathing practice. My mind was so still meditation felt effortless.
Really beneficial practice. Level 1 implies there may be a level 2 on the way – I really hope so!
I was having a tough time mentally and decided to do this practice. By the end of it, I felt re-energised and ready to face the day. Highly recommend this.
