Seetkari pranayama (Hissing breath)
October 1, 2008
Sit in any meditative pose with your eyes shut. Roll back your tongue so it touches the palate. Press down teeth gently. Inhale from your mouth, with a hissing sound, drawing in air. Release your tongue and exhale from the nostrils. This is one round. Do up to nine rounds.
Avoid: If having respiratory problems and sensitive teeth. Also avoid this pranayama in polluted areas.
Benefits: It is a calming and cooling practice. Controls hunger, thirst, anxiety. It is used in the treatment of heat-aggravated problems as well.
