Part 3/9:
Next, the practice introduces Nadien or alternate nostril breathing, a technique designed to balance energy and calm the mind. By alternating inhaling and exhaling through each nostril, the flow fosters a sense of harmony and control within the body. Participants close off one nostril while breathing through the other, alternating with care and intention.
Movement: Gentle Flow and Stretching
Transitioning into movement, the practice invites participants to lower their right hand to the ground while lifting the left, switching from side to side before extending both arms in a flowing motion. This gentle warm-up loosens stiffness in the shoulders and upper back.
