## Caption

This is a very effective way to open up a blocked nostril. But this technique has deeper significance:

Have you seen pictures of ancient Rishis with a T-shaped wooden stick tucked in their underarm? This was to consciously activate the nostril that they wanted.
This also has a mention in the Bhagawat Gita.

Throughout the day, you’ll notice that only one of the nostril is more active than the other- and this has an effect on the activities that you do!
