Kapalabhati Pranayama Video
/
In this Ayurveda pranayama video, you will be led through a 12 minute Kapalabhati Pranayama breathing practice. According to Ayurveda, our exhalation is how we releases toxins that have built up in the mind. This means that kapalabhati pranayama helps to cleanse and purify the mind. In fact kapalabhati translates to “skull shining breath” or “that which makes the head shine”. Kapalabhati involves a contraction of the abdominal wall on the exhalation. This works to increase agni or the digestive fire as well as improve digestion. The pace of the breath is different for each person. However, with time, people often find their speed increases. How fast or slow you practice kapalabhati is not important. The quality of your practice is the most important. Remember there shouldn’t be any straining or forcing when practicing pranayama. We always want to feel peace and ease when we practice. Now press play on the video and follow along as you are led through the Ayurvedic pranayama technique of Kapalabhati pranayama or breath of fire.
