This is a truism as a healthy body is the prime requisite for success and joy in life. People are progressively being convinced that yoga produces good health, satisfaction and joy in present day demanding life and is not simply an exercise routine.
In this short article we will go over Anuloma-Viloma (alternate breathing) pranayama. Pranayama simply suggests correct 'management' of the vital force - prana. Although the standard principle remains the very same, many different kinds of pranayama have been developed, each with its own special strategy. Anuloma-Viloma or nadi shuddhi pranayama (nerve purifying pranayama) is one such kind and is considered among the basic types.
The practice of Anuloma Viloma is rather like the team that manages traffic on roadways, looks after their cleanliness, beautification, and so on and keeps the traffic moving smoothly and effectively. The technique involves breathing in (pooraka) through one nostril and vice versa. Therefore this pranayama has the name anuloma viloma, i.e. alternate breathing.
To practice this, you have to being in any of the yogic sitting postures. To begin with, continue regular breathing using moola bandha (i.e. comfy anal contraction). Keeping a steady moola bandha, take in and breathe out totally. Ensure that the moola bandha is not loosened during the process. Pause for a while between breathing in and breathing out. Take in deeply through the left nostril and breathe out through the right; then breathe in through the right and out through the left. Continue breathing this way, i.e. alternately from left and best nostrils, for one to three minutes.
After reaching a convenience level in this way, you may relocate to the next stage. Close the ideal nostril with the ideal thumb keeping the other 4 fingers together. Now, gradually take in through the left nostril at an uniform speed. Repeat with the other nostril. While breathing in, raise the shoulders and expand the chest taking the ribs up. The lower abdominal region, however, must be held in.
Advantages: The respiratory passage is cleaned up and this prepares one well for the practice of other pranayamas. Breathing becomes simple and controlled. The mind becomes and heartbeat rhythmic. Also aids in boosting concentration, memory and other mental professors.
Contraindications: Extreme pain in abdominal area, swelling on account of appendicitis, enlargement of liver, really fragile bowels or intestinal tracts, conditions of the lungs, extreme throat infections, growth in the nose (polypus) or blockage of the nasal passage due to cold, etc.
