Self Care - Breathing Therapy

This one came to me via a forwarded email:

The nose has a left and a right side and we use both to inhale and exhale. Actually they are different; the right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon. In other words, right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily; whereas left side belongs to 'cold'.

During a headache, try to close your right nostril and use your left nostril to breathe. In about 5 mins, your headache would be gone.

If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nostril and breathe through your right nostril; after a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed.
