A trader must practice yoga, especially pranayama. Our cerebral hemispheres work in tandem harmonizing our logical and intuitive capacities. By infusing right and left hemispheric action we may effectively monitor our stress responses, thereby restoring our intuitive and reasoning skills. Spatial and verbal tasks are heightened through the use of Anuloma Viloma, alternate nostril breathing. Our cognitive capacity to direct our focus, manage and retain information, plan and implement tasks with efficiency—while remaining calm and alert—all may be credited to pranayama’s efforts.
Traders may benefit from the increase in stamina, readiness and consequential response time. Anxiety is also alleviated, credited to pranayama’s effect on the sympathetic nervous system. By slowing the breath, we may slow the thoughts in the mind, clearing away negative emotions and their corresponding responses within the body. Patañjali stresses the relationship of the thoughts, body and mind: one can not work without bearing on the other.
