~ Left Nostril Breathing ~
Chandrabhedana Pranayama is made up of two words, in which Chandra means the moon and the piercing means entering or breaking. We have two nostrils for breathing. In yoga, it is called Nadi, in which the right nostril is called Surya Nadi, and the left nostril is known as Chandra Nadi

~ Right Nostril Breathing ~
Surya Bhedana or Surya Bhedi is a warming/energizing pranayama practiced in a seated meditation posture. Using Vishnu Mudra (hand gesture), you block the left nostril, inhale through the right, retain the breath for as long as you can, and block the right nostril to exhale through the left nostril
