Feeling problem in breathing; growing through a phase of anxiety for last 10 days aprrox. & also having insomnia. What brething exercise/meditation method/yogic mudra is best in this condition

Ans: Experiencing anxiety, breathing difficulties, and insomnia together can feel overwhelming, but gentle yoga and breathing practices can provide relief by calming the mind and balancing the body. Here’s what you can do:

1. Breathing Exercises:
Anulom Vilom (Alternate Nostril Breathing): Sit comfortably. Close your right nostril with your thumb and inhale through the left nostril. Close the left nostril with your ring finger and exhale through the right nostril. Repeat for 5-10 minutes. This calms the mind and balances energy.
Deep Belly Breathing: Place one hand on your stomach. Slowly inhale deeply through your nose, allowing your belly to rise, and exhale completely. Practice for 5 minutes to ease anxiety.
2. Meditation Method:
Guided Body Scan Meditation: Lie down and focus on each part of your body, releasing tension as you go. This helps in relaxing your nervous system and promoting sleep.
3. Yogic Mudra:
Gyan Mudra: Touch the tips of your index finger and thumb, keeping the other fingers straight. Practice this mudra during meditation or breathing exercises for mental calmness.
For better results and personalized guidance, consult a yoga coach. They can create a practice suited to your needs.
