Mary McGeachy on April 10, 2019: Synchronicity abounds! I had already planned to offer this to my class today. I love the image of pulling the breathe into the opposite side of the brain and draining it out again. Thank you!

Amanda Eriksen on April 26, 2019: Thanks Tamika, I use this breath practice personally and I and teach it quite a bit. Picturing the spherical swirl of energy in my brain really helped me to keep the "switch" in the right place. I always found the cue of switching on the inhale confusing as in my mind the inhale is over and I am switching for the exhale.... I could really feel the energy in my head and it really helped me. So thank you for this. I love that something that was once feeling bit old is now fresh and new again!!! You're the best!

Tamika on April 26, 2019: So glad this landed for you, Amanda. Yes, the cue to "inhale, switch" can be confusing and doesn't work for everyone. In it's more precise form, it could be "inhale, then switch." It's such a grounding practice and I'm glad it's one of your favs! The thought of your lucky students having the gift of being taught by you warms my heart. xOM
