Press your left nostril with your ring finger while exhaling and inhale through the right nostril. Maintain the same posture and inhale through the right nostril. When exhaling, switch sides and press the right nostril with your thumb while releasing the left nostril. Maintain the same posture while inhaling. Exhale and switch sides. Do this alternately, inhaling and exhaling through each nostril, for five to ten minutes.
