Clear a stuffy nose with this breathing exercise

Do you feel congested? this might help you

Hello my friends,

Have you been hit with a head cold this winter? Here is a simple breath practice that may help clear congestion.

Once you feel clear again, you might like to use a neti pot to keep the nasal passages and sinus’ clear. If you don’t regularly use a neti pot then I don’t recommend you start while you have a blocked nose as water may get trapped and it could make matters worse for you. However, it is wonderful as a preventative to wash away anything that makes its way into your nostrils.

Another practice to take is Nadi shodana - alternate nostril breathing - which not only helps to keep the nasal passages clear but it is a very balancing pranayama and calming on the nervous system.
If you are a member of my online yoga then you will know this practice! It’s one of my favourite and you’ll find it in a lot of my classes.

I’d love to build conversation in these emails so please do leave a comment if you take this practice and how you felt afterwards.

Next weekend I will be in Yamba with eleven lovely guests for my yoga weekend. I’m looking forward to it! I am going to make the effort to share some behind the scene pics on instagram @sarahcampbellyoga

That’s all for now, take care of yourself this week.
Love Sarah
