How to Stay Alive During a Solar Event: Introduction

Matthew Nihra: This section is a brief run-through of the logic behind the yogic breathing techniques that the series author and I find helpful for our own survival. These breathing techniques help us get clear of other people who are impelled to ‘act out’ during Solar events. The succeeding section describes the ‘nuts and bolts’ of these yogic breathing techniques.

Lightworkers speak of remaining ‘in form’ during these times as a way of softening the fact that our lives may sometimes be in danger. This and the succeeding section speak to this need to stay alive.

We who are called to assist all humankind to Enlightenment must stay alive in order to be of service to everyone. We cannot serve as Lightworkers or pathfinders during the Ascension process here on Earth unless we are careful to remain ‘in form’ during these turbulent times. We feel that very strongly.

The same logic applies to those of our readers just now arising to an enlightened state. Each of us must improve our yogic skills in order to make it through, come what may. Survival is a very important aspect of life on Earth.

With this as the end I have in mind, let me take you step-by-step through a logical process that will determine what course of action may best keep us alive during these perilous times on Earth. Here we go …

The sushumna is shown as a column of white light that runs vertically along the spine. Through the sushumna flows the central vertical power current or ‘kundalini’ of the human energy field. The ida is shown as a wavy white line of light originating at the left side of the base of the spine, coursing upward through the chakras to the third-eye point (6th chakra). The cooling and relaxing energy of the ida courses through the left nostril. Personal chakras 1 through 7 (those within the torso) are depicted as spheres of light. The colors, from lowest to highest, are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet. The indigo sphere of light at the level of the eyebrows (or slightly higher) represents the third-eye point (the 6th chakra or ‘ajna’). The violet sphere of light at the top of the head represents the crown chakra (the 7th chakra or ‘many-petaled lotus’).

Here is our rationale for this assertion …

Parasympathetic Nervous System Relates to the Freeze Response

The parasympathetic nervous system is said to be associated with the ‘freeze-and-dissociate’… ‘rest and digest’ … and ‘feed and breed’ … functions of the subconscious mind. Thus the series author feels that the parasympathetic nervous system is related to the cooling ida energy of yogic lore.

Sympathetic Nervous System Relates to the Fight-or-Flight Response

The sympathetic nervous system is said to be associated with the fight-or-flight response of the subconscious mind. Thus the series author derives that the sympathetic nervous system is related to the stimulating pingala energy of yogic lore.

Left-Nostril Breathing and Right-Nostril Breathing Stimulate Ida and Pingala Respectively

As mentioned earlier, the ida is associated with breathing through the left nostril; and the pingala is associated with breathing through the right nostril.

. . . . .

First Conclusion: Left-Nostril Breathing Stimulates the Freeze Response

Thus the series author finds, in her personal yogic practice, that stimulation of the ida through left-nostril breathing will bring about the freeze response of the parasympathetic nervous system. She feels it may also factor into the fawn response and the flop response to a perceived threat, as these seem to her also to relate to ‘cooling’ energies.

. . . . .

Second Conclusion: Right-Nostril Breathing Stimulates the Fight-or-Flight Response

On the contrary, the series author finds that stimulation of the pingala through right-nostril breathing will bring about the fight-or-flight response of the sympathetic nervous system. My own experience confirms this.

Grand Conclusion: Our Choice of Left-Nostril Breathing or Right-Nostril Breathing Can Help Us to Avoid ‘Acting Out’ and to Escape from Other People ‘Acting Out’ During Solar Events

During a Solar event, we can avoid ‘acting out’ … or else we can escape from other people who are ‘acting out’ … through our choice of left-nostril breathing or right-nostril breathing.

If you find this to be true (as did the series author and I), then you will have at hand a means of changing up your response to solstice and equinoctial energies, and to solar wind gusts and geostorms.

Image: “Should I Choose Right-Nostril Breathing or Left-Nostril Breathing?” self-portrait by Alice B. Clagett, 24 June 2023, CC BY-SA 4.0 International, from “Awakening with Planet Earth,” https://awakeningwithplanetearth.com ..

. . . . .

By consciously breathing through the left nostril only, a person can move out of the fight-or-flight response, and into the freeze response. In other words, it seems to us that left-nostril breathing can help us to ‘put on the brakes’ and to avoid ‘acting out’.

This applies when we ourselves feel tempted to overreact to stress by ‘acting out’.

For example, through left-nostril breathing we might avoid taking a bus out of town to escape what we overestimate to be danger. That might save us money.

Or we might avoid angrily confronting other people as a reaction to stress. That might save us begging their pardon and setting our relationships back in order.

In other words, breathing through the left nostril might help us to attain a calm and thoughtful mind even in the midst of a stressful situation.

By consciously breathing through the right nostril only, a person can move out of the freeze response, and into the fight-or-flight response during stressful situations.

In other words, it seems to us that right-nostril breathing can help a person avoid being ‘a sitting duck’ and ‘freezing in fear’ as other people ‘act out’. In that way, it seems to us, right-nostril breathing can help us to fight back or else to escape from a violent person or situation in these perilous times.
