. . . . .

Our human breath naturally subconsciously alternates between the left nostril and the right nostril during the day. A small scientific study has reported the interval for coursing of the breath through one nostril as being about 2 hours while waking … and about 4 and a half hours while sleeping.

The article is “Measuring and Characterizing the Human Nasal Cycle, “ by Roni Kahana-Zweit and others. It was published on the National Library of Medicine website …

Conscious Alternation of the Breath from Nostril to Nostril

Rather than waiting 2 to 4 hours to attain a balance of ida and pingala, we can consciously switch to left nostril breathing or to right nostril breathing. We can consciously change the operation of the autonomic nervous system … and the subconscious mind … by practicing left-nostril or right-nostril breathing, as described below. These techniques I find to be a sure way to deal with solstice and equinoctial energies, and with solar wind gusts and geostorms.

I have but one caveat: Only try these yogic breathing practices on your medical doctor’s advice …

How to Do Left-Nostril Breathing

Left-nostril breathing has a calming relaxing effect. It is easily practiced, even by a novice to the science of yoga.

. . . . .

While first learning left-nostril breathing, use the thumb of the right hand to close off the right nostril. The mouth is also closed. This forces the breath through the left nostril. The other fingers of the right hand are pointed up, like antennae.

After a while, I found it was possible to switch to left-nostril breathing by simply placing my Awareness on the left nostril, and feeling the breath there. The hand pose was no longer needed.

Long Deep Breathing Helps Us Judge Whether to Do Left-Nostril Breathing or Right-Nostril Breathing When We Are in Danger During a Solar Event

Alice B. Clagett: When the breath becomes long and deep, the feelings of a person facing stressful events become less involved in the outcome. The person becomes the neutral witness of the events that are unfolding. This is the yogic state known as ‘neutral mind’.

I advise practicing Long Deep Breathing all day long. I have found that this breathing technique helps me judge whether to switch to right-nostril breathing or to left-nostril breathing when danger looms during a Solar event. Long deep breathing can help me gain that extra instant in which I am able consciously to decide on a right course of action.

. . . . .

It could be, for instance, that I might have a notion of ‘acting out’ during a Solar event. Long deep breathing can help me decide that left-nostril breathing will help me avoid acting out. In that way it can help me inhibit my own fight-or-flight response.

. . . . .

It might also be that, while doing long deep breathing, I notice other people ‘acting out’ or in danger of ‘acting out’. Long deep breathing can help me decide that right-nostril breathing will help me to safely get away from these people before they begin to ‘act out’. In that way long deep breathing can help me inhibit my own freeze, fawn, and flop responses.

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 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.

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.

Image: “Right Nostril Relates to Pingala and Left Nostril Relates to Ida,” self-portrait by Alice B. Clagett, 24 June 2023, CC BY-SA 4.0 International, from “Awakening with Planet Earth,” https://awakeningwithplanetearth.com …

. . . . .

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.

The Autonomic Nervous System and the Subconscious Mind

Alice B. Clagett: Below is an image of the autonomic nervous system (the ANS) …

I feel that the autonomic nervous system is associated with the subconscious mind, which is sometimes referred to in my work as the ‘gut brain’ and which is known in esoteric lore as the lower mental body. More about the ANS can be found in the English Wikipedia article “Autonomic Nervous System“ …

The action of the parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems is ‘opposite’ or ‘antagonistic’. That is to say, they have opposing effects.

The Sushumna, the Ida, and the Pingala

Matthew Nihra: All three main power currents of the human personal energy field, along with the main power centers, are depicted in the image below.

About the Sushumna

As mentioned earlier, the sushumna is the central channel through which the central vertical power current … the kundalini energy … is able to rise after the energies of the ida and the pingala are evenly balanced.

Entwined with the energy of the sushumna are the power currents termed the ida and the pingala. These two energies have qualities very different, each from the other.

MM 13P. Enlightenment I - The Sushumna, the Ida, and the Pingala

Clagett, 10 September 2022, CC BY-SA 4.0 International, from “Awakening with Planet Earth,” https://awakeningwithplanetearth.com … DESCRIPTION: Woman standing, facing forward. There are three main power currents (‘nerve currents’ or ‘nadis’) in the human personal energy field. These are the ida, the pingala, and the sushumna. 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. The pingala is shown as a wavy tawny-colored line of light originating at the right side of the base of the spine, coursing upward through the chakras to the third-eye point (6th chakra). The warming and invigorating energy of the pingala courses through the right 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’). These two are related to the pineal gland and the pituitary gland, which are located quite close together in the human brain. I represent their close association in the drawing as the stem of the lotus flower … CREDITS: Image: “Woman with Ringlets, Standing” [adapted], by William Mulready, 1824, in Wikimedia Commons … https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:William_Mulready_-_Woman_with_Ringlets,_Standing_-_B1977.14.5086_-_Yale_Center_for_British_Art.jpg … public domain

The pingala is shown as a wavy tawny-colored line of light originating at the right side of the base of the spine, coursing upward through the chakras to the third-eye point (6th chakra). The warming and invigorating energy of the pingala courses through the right 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’). These two are related to the pineal gland and the pituitary gland, which are located quite close together in the human brain.

Qualities of the ida

The energy of the ida, which is stimulated by left-nostril breathing, is associated with …

  • the moon, ‘the feminine side’ of our personalities
  • the color white
  • comfort, coolness, and nurturing
  • control of mental processes
  • the right side of the brain, and intuitive, imaginative, and creative thought
  • and the parasympathetic nervous system, which relaxes the body.

The series author asserts that this relaxing quality may be a factor in manifestation of the freeze, fawn, and flop responses.

The Human Personal Energy Field: Power Currents and Energy Centers

Matthew Nihra: In this section, the series author has picked and chosen those yogic and Lightworker techniques that help her to attain ‘neutral mind’. She has added an overlay of understanding to help synchronize the Ascension lore with the ancient esoteric teachings. As she explains it to me, insofar as possible she has dovetailed in what information she could glean from psychology, psychiatry, and human biology. Then where it seems the images available online might be more simply depicted, she has devised and added new images for your perusal.

Let us begin at the beginning: The human personal energy field has within it ‘power currents’ … ‘nerve currents’ or ‘nadis’ … and major energy centers known as chakras. More about the nadis can be found in the English Wikipedia article “Nadi (yoga)“ …

There are three main ‘power currents’ in the human personal energy field. The image below depicts the first of these, the ‘sushumna’, through which flows the ‘central vertical power current’ or ‘kundalini’ of the human energy field. The sushumna is shown as a column of white Light that runs vertically along the spine.

Along the sushumna are the main energy centers or ‘chakras’ of the human energy field. In the image below, personal chakras 1 through 7 … those within a person’s torso, neck, and head … are depicted as spheres of Light. The colors, from lowest to highest, are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.

You can find out more about the chakras. as they were explained to the series author long ago. in the article “The Chakra System” by Healthy Happy Holy Organization (3HO) …

The image below symbolically portrays a detail of the ‘third-eyepoint’ … otherwise known as the 6th chakra or ‘ajna’ … and the crown chakra … which is also known as the 7th chakra or ‘many-petaled lotus’. The indigo sphere of Light at the level of the eyebrows (or slightly higher) represents the third-eyepoint. The violet sphere of Light at the top of the head and the multicolored lotus flower that surrounds it represent the crown chakra.

These two are related to the pineal gland and the pituitary gland respectively, which are located quite close together in the human brain. In the image, I represent their close association as the stem of the lotus flower.

This next image depicts the second of the three main energy currents of the human personal energy field, the ‘ida’. This second energy current is represented as a wavy white line of Light. You may note that this white line of Light originates at the left side of the base of the spine (which is to say, on the right side of the image as viewed by my reader).

The cooling and relaxing energy of the ida courses upward through the chakras to the third-eyepoint. This energy flows through the left nostril and affects the right hemisphere of the brain, which is related to intuition, imagination, and creativity.

This new image below depicts the third of the three main energy currents of the human personal energy field, the ‘pingala’. This third energy current is represented as a wavy tawny-colored line of Light. You may note this tawny-colored line of Light originates at the right side of the base of the spine (which is to say, on the left side of the image as viewed by my reader).

The warming and invigorating energy of the pingala courses upward through the chakras to the third-eyepoint. This energy flows through the right nostril and affects the left hemisphere of the brain, which is related to analytical, logical, and scientific ways of thinking.
