Pranayama Can Help Asthma Patients
While doing yoga your ânadisâ or energy channels of your body open up. These channels help in circulating energy to each part of your system. This leads to healing of the mind and body which improves your well-being. It can also reduce the chances of getting an asthma attack and help you do physical activities with ease. Yoga helps with cholesterol and the poses are easy to learn and can be practiced at any time of the day even if you are at home with the help of online Yoga sessions.
Nadi Shodhana, commonly known as anulom vilom clears up the blocked energy channels in your body and helps it heal. It also relaxes your mind and helps you sleep better. Kapal bhati is a popular pranayama which has many benefits like speeding up the metabolism, improving blood circulation, energising the nervous system, and promoting energy flow throughout the body. Bhastrika pranayama is done along with Kapal Bhati to cleanse the airways of the body. It involves deep breathing with forceful exhaling that builds strength in your lungs and increases your stamina. These can be helpful to safeguard an asthma patient’s health, and yoga can also help in controlling chronic diseases but consult with your doctor before adding them to your routine.

Hello,
firstly, You said nadi shodhan pranayama is commonly known as anulomaviloma pranayama. However, that is not the case. rather, it is commonly mistaken to be called so. Anuloma viloma pranayama is without holding the breath whereas, nadishodhan is with holding the breath.
Secondly, if you look as the pathophysiology of asthma it is not recommended to breath fast, forceful and deep. It will be most appropriate to breath slow and deep. Kapalbhati and bhastrika pranayama is fast and forceful type of breathing exercise.
You may kindly confirm.
Thanks.
