Breathing Exercise Tutorials: Opposite Nostril Breathing

Breathing exercises are a great way to help center yourself. They can relieve anxiety from anywhere and usaully don't require any tools.

One of my favorite breathing techniques is opposite nostril breathing. All you need is yourself and a free hand. This is a great techniuqe to do before an exam or interview, on a flight, at home, really any time anxiety comes up in your life.
