What is Nose Oil, the benefits & how to practice? 
Ayurveda wisdom says the nostrils are the “the gateway to the head”. The nose is the direct route to the brain, the entry point of breath & the doorway of consciousness. When excess body fluids accumulate in the sinus, throat, nose or head it is best to eliminate through the nose. Keeping the nostrils healthy & open offers symptomatic relief from congestion & sinus discomforts. The following are some of the many benefits of Nasya, the practice of lubricating the nasal passageways with Nose Oil herbal drops:
Maintains mental clarity, memory & equanimity
Lubricates & protects the nasal passages
Prevents & treats allergies
Soothes & cleanses the tissue
Promotes awareness & concentration
Releases head tension
Relieves accumulated stress
Protects from environmental pollen, pollutants & toxins 
 
Here is what you need to know about Nose Oiling & why it should be incorporated into your daily routine (dinacharya).  Nose Oiling is nurturing, nourishing & balances all doshas.  Nasya, lubricating the nasal passages with oil, provides subtle moisture to the air we breathe & balances prana (breath of life) in the body. Begin comfortably sitting up, place 1-2 drops of nose oil on a clean fingertip, gently insert & apply oil into your nostril. Gently massage the inner wall of the nasal passage. Repeat in opposite nostril. Another option is comfortably lying down on your back & tilting your head back. Place 1-2 drops of nose oil into nostril, take a big sniff, then rest for a few moments, allowing the oil to enter. Adding Nasya to your morning or evening daily routine only takes minutes & can immediately heighten a sense of clarity & freshness.  
Nose oil is best used alone & not combined with other nasal cleansing methods, like the neti pot. It is not recommended to use nose oil if you have a cold, sinus infection, the flu or if you are pregnant.
