Breathing Therapy

The nose has a left and a right side; we use both to inhale and exhale.

Actually they are different; you would be able to feel the difference.
The right side represents the sun, left side represents the moon.
During a headache, try to close your right nose and use your left nose to breathe.

In about 5 mins, your headache will go .

If you feel tired, just reverse, close your left nose and breathe through your right nose.
After a while, you will feel your mind is refreshed.

Right side belongs to 'hot', so it gets heated up easily, left side belongs to 'cold'.

Most females breathe with their left noses, so they get "cooled off" faster.

Most of the guys breathe with their right noses, they get worked up.

Do you notice the moment we wake up, which side breathes faster? Left or right? ?

If left is faster, you will feel tired.
So, close your left nose and use your right nose for breathing, you will get refreshed quickly.

This can be taught to kids, but it is more effective when practiced by adults.

My friend used to have bad headaches and was always visiting the doctor..

There was this period when he suffered headache literally every night, unable to study.

He took painkillers, did not work.

He decided to try out the breathing therapy here: closed his right nose and breathed through his left nose.

In less than a week, his headaches were gone! He continued the exercise for one month.

This alternative natural therapy without medication is something that he has experienced.

So, why not give it a try?

take your shoulders down from your ears...

huh?

relax...

it was hard to do...

but i was willing to...

-incomplete-

it was gloomy with a drizzling rain...

a couple of days back then actually

riding along singapore road in such weather can be

quite a hazard

the evil sky and it merciless tears

there was enough light

however

in that weather

to see things clearly around me

but that was not the point

it is this weather that made me ponder

about academic stuffs

the timetable i've made

and the modules i've bidded for

yes, you bid modules in NUS

using the points bidding system

you know, like COE

quota, no. of bidders, every one pays the lowest successful bid

timetable for the upcoming semester ain't pleasant

school is an everyday thing

which for the past two semesters, is an uncommon thing

and modules i've bidded for

would require tons of self motivation

more than 44 hours of self preparation for the modules

oh yes

i'm a full time student afterall

but anything would have its balance

its ying and its yang, its black and its white

optimistically, everyday is just 3 to 5 hours of school

and it somehow fits nicely into life's routines

then again

maybe the whole idea is not good afterall

and just as perfect as the weather

gloomy

and i've got another huge worry on my mind

one that would cause this weather to turn into

a sudden fury of thunderstorms

so hard it crashes hearts

and it is almost forbidden to voice my views out...

it's just another wednesday...

but it poured rain

on my side

i don't know about yours

but it rained over here

and so

the rain fall downs on my window

i see the droplets roll down

and coldness runs through me

the eclipse today

was nothing really special

over at my side

i don't know about yours

was really eager in the morning, really

switched it on

and those chinese hosts were great

great at helping me fall asleep

yes, i missed the eclipse

slept it away

argh, kinda waste

was informed this is the longest eclipse

lasting like maybe a lucky 6 minutes?

best viewed at some of the big cities of china

and precisely

why the tv show is in 100% mandarin

oh well

and went to stomp

someone went to foshan and came back

with those really nice pictures

what a day...

and there

it's just another wednesday

this post is because it rained

on my side that is

don't know about yours

take care.

:)

it's a sunny day... with rain...

it's strange, the weather these days

sunshine with rain

rain with sunshine

so singapore. not taipei.

carry out my morning routine

then lie on my bed for some winks at maybe 8.30am

had two strange nightmares in a row

and i wake up, only to find the alarm clock shows 9.30am

how can one normal person

have two nightmares

in a matter of an hour?

scary and i fear i am not normal anymore

and i don't remember any of them

that's the good thing :)

just up and feeling scared

really sweaty too

oh well, life goes on

and i hope i won't be a loser

cos' i'm starting to feel like one

again

you know, those depressed feelings

of not having any worth

of not doing enough

of not achieving enough

perhaps school can help

or make it worse

i kinda want to go back taipei

once i step foot on Singapore Changi Airport

i know i need to go back

haha, i don't like it here

perhaps, just avoiding

but i do really want to be somewhere else

just like sis

an entire month in Nihon-koku

envy... really envy...

and parents going off too

leaving me the four walls

but i still have my girl

to warm things up a little

:)

make someone happy today, for you

make you happy everyday, for me
