BHASTRIKA PRANAYAMA

 


In Bhastrika Pranayama our lungs are moved with movements. Bhastrika (bellow-breathing) is a powerful and energetic Pranayama in yoga breathing exercises. In Ancient yogis, they called this breathing exercise as “the yoga breath of fire”. If you did Kapalbhati Pranayama, in this the importance is only on exhalation which is forced, short and quick. In Kapalbhati Pranayama, inhalation is passive and natural. During exhalation, we also force the belly in toward our spine in a brisk movement. While in the Bhastrika Pranayama Inhalation and exhalation both are forced. The movement of the belly along with every breath is an optional variation. So Bhastrika Pranayama is all about inhaling and exhaling completely so that our body gets a sufficient amount of oxygen.

Method: Steps of Bhastrika Pranayama

Step 1: Sit on the Padmasana (Lotus Pose) with the closed eyes.

Step 2: Take a deep breath in (inhale), filling the lungs with air. While you breathe in (inhale) assume that you are taking in positive energy and vibrations and that you are being energized by them. Inhaling should take the length of time-2.5 seconds to breathe in.

Step 3: After that gently breathe out. During breathe out (exhale), imagine that you are taking out all the toxins from our body and find (feel that during breathing out all the toxins comes out through your breath). Exhaling should take the length of time-2.5 seconds to breathe out.
