It's better to use a dry toothbrush than a wet one. Gently stoking your teeth with a dry tooth brush and rinsing thoroughly will remove more bacteria and plaque than using a wet brush with regular toothpaste. It's less than ideal to brush your teeth right after a meal. If you brush too soon after eating, the saliva will not have time to recalibrate to its slightly alkaline level of pH 7.

To gain focus and balance the body and mind, I followed a technique called surya bheda pranayama, which involves taking one breath into the right nostril, then exhaling through the left for several sounds. [2020] - James Nestor
