This is a short breathing (pranayama) exercise …I invite you to practice along. (And maybe you can hold longer than me 😉)

1. 𝐁𝐚𝐡𝐲𝐚 𝐊𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐚

Sit at ease , calm the breath before starting.
Take a few deep inhale-exhale.
Exhale completely.
Engage the Uddiyana bandha – the ‘false inhale’.
Then hold engaging the other bandhas. This is Maha bandha.
Release.

2. 𝐀𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐚 𝐊𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐡𝐚𝐤𝐚

Take a few deep inhale-exhale.
Inhale.
Engage the Jalandhara bandha – the throat & the Mula bandha – the root.
Hold as long as you can.
Release.
