* Whats all this about 28 minutes?

What's so important about 28 minutes?

The human brain thinks predominantly on one side of the brain. In a balanced individual, this time is divided equally between the cognizant/matter/male left hemisphere with the creative/energy/female right hemisphere. In unbalanced individuals, working with the breath to control this is helpful.

When you are thinking on the left side of your brain, you may notice one of your nostrils is moving more air than the other. Sometimes this is slight, sometimes this is pronouned. Whichever side you are breathing on corresponds to the opposite side of the brain.

The brain will naturally make a shift from left to right or vice versa every 20 to 35 minutes, depending on the individual. When this happens, there is about a 3 to 5 minute interval where both sides are thinking with equal energy. this is why we get brilliant ideas suddenly. If one's brain is in an altered headspace when this happens, we get great, amazing insights, usually of a spiritual nature.

We recommend most of these exercises be carried out to 28 minutes. We have used the marker 28 minutes as a good experimental guide for students. Your results may vary, and they damned well should!

Agape!
