I used to practice Kriya yoga couple of years ago but due to acid reflux stopped. Am practising "light medtitation" from past one year. In general my health improved but my left nostril remains blocked most of the time from last many months. In the beginning it used to be less but its gradually increasing. Sometimes get very uncomfortable, wake up in middle of night. I sleep either on my back or turning right side only but still.....!I feel its some kind of energy imbalance. breath has also become very light and subtle, sometimes don't feel my breath at all. just by movement of stomach or chest or in spine...know that am breathing. Showed to doctor also....used a nasal spray and antibiotics but still not better. Please if anyone can guide or help. Thankyou so much......!
Did the doc look up inside the sinus? If not go see ear-nose-throat specialist just for examination to rule out possible tumor etc. Avoid sleeping on the left side. Else I can only suggest visualization of the left nostril opening and also try sitali cooling breath which is connected to the left side, Ida, etc.
Hi Anjali, for me what unblocks both nostrils is Sun Salutations+ Maha Mudra (which is also very good for the digestive system), or running. I wish you good health.
