The two halves of our brains cooperate by agreeing that one of them will be in charge. On many jobs they take turns being the boss, handing the responsibility back and forth between themselves every few seconds, minutes, or hours. This is called hemispheric dominance.
You can easily observe this by noticing which nostril is open. Most of the time, one nostril breathes freely while the other is partly constricted inside. They typically alternate every ninety minutes or so as the brain hemispheres switch dominance for this function. If you pay careful attention to this process, you may discover that your state of mind and mood vary according to which side is breathing more freely.
Yogis have also developed techniques for keeping both nostrils open simultaneously because they believe this helps channel energy into the central channel of the nervous system
Physiologically, this probably means the hemispheres are sharing responsibility equally instead of taking turns being the boss. In other words, these techniques probably reduce hemispheric dominance with regard to the nasal passages.

Why are children left handed?
Handedness is caused by the dominance of one cerebral hemisphere over the other. Dominant right hemispheres cause left handedness (each hemisphere controls the opposite side of the body to the side it is on, since the nerves cross over). The exact reason why one hemisphere is dominant rather than the other, remains unknown. Quite possibly it is just an accident of fetal development.
