Nadi Shodhan pranayama, or Alternate Nostril Breathing, is believed in yogic and Ayurvedic traditions to harmonize the two hemispheres of the brain, resulting in a balanced in physical, mental and emotional well-being. This type of focused breathing clears out the blocked energy channels, and just a few rounds a day can help restore imbalances in your brain, improve sleep, calm your emotional state, boost your thinking, and calm your nervous system.

shodhan = cleaning, purification
pranayama = breathing technique
