Kapal Bhati, Anilom Vilom and various other  Asanas of Yoga  are bringing  fruitful and quick results. Nadi Shodhana -  Alternate Nostril Breathing is a simple yogic exercise which is stressed upon.  It produces optimum functioning of both sides of the brain – optimum creativity and optimum logical and verbal activity.  It creates a balanced person. This is the best technique to calm the mind and the nervous system.
