Bhastrika Pranayama : Detailed Description

Sit in a comfortable Asana. Breathe in through both the nostrils, till the lungs are full and diaphragm is stretched. Then breathe out gently, but see that the abdominal cavity does not blow up due to the air breathed in.  

Duration

There should be inhalation of 2½ seconds and exhalation of 2½ seconds in a rhythmic flow. Thus by doing it non-stop, one can do bhastrika pranayama 12 times in one minute.

This Pranayama brings about a proper balance of the three Doshas i.e. Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, and maintains their balance. Blood is purified and the body gets rid of foreign objects and toxins.Stabilizes Prana and calms mind and helps the upward journey of Prana from Muladhara Chakra (Base Chakra) to Sahsrar Chakra(Cerebral Gland) and helpful in the Kundalini Jagran.

More on Bahstrika Pranayma  by Swami Ramdev

• Those who are suffering from high B.P. and heart disease, should not practise bhastrika at vigorous speed.
•  We should not inflate our stomach while filling the breath inside during this pranayama. If you fill in the breath up to diaphragm it will inflate the chest up to ribs, not the stomach. The name of diaphragmatic deep breathing only is bhastrika. 
•  Practise it at a slow pace in summer season. 
• Those whose both nostrils are not properly open due to excess of cough or sinus problems, etc, should first close the right nostril and do recaka and pμuraka with left nostril. Then they should close the left nostril and do recaka and pμuraka with the right nostril at slow, medium or vigorous speed as per their capacity. Then in the end, they should do bhastrika pranayama using both ida end pingala energy channels. One must practise this pranayama for 5 minutes daily. Keep your eyes closed while doing this pranayama and meditate on 'OM' in your mind with each inhalation and exhalation.
