Pranayama breathing exercise

Pranayama is an important step in yoga, way of life, and is translated as "the science of breathing, breath control, willful breathing". This alternating breathing-out action also balances the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, giving the person a state of calm, providing relaxation and positively affecting fatigue. Application steps; Right hand Nasika mudra is performed. Nasika mudra is the mudra where the second and third fingers of the right hand are folded into the palm and the other fingers are exposed. Then the right nostril is closed with the first finger of the right hand. Start by breathing through the left nostril. Then the left nostril is closed with the fourth finger and the breath is held. While the left nostril is closed, the right nostril is opened and inhaled. Breathe again through
