Pranayama Yoga to Wake Up
Wake-up and clear your head with this short, but full, pranayama yoga class. It's the perfect combination of breathing exercises, including deep abdominal breathing, kapalabhati pranayama (the skull cleanser) and meditation. The diaphragmatic breathing helps calm your nerves before moving into the breathing techniques that wake you up. If you like this class, the next step is David's Pranayama Yoga To Move Energy.
Comments
Hey David, first of all, thank you. Second I had a few questions and I understand if you can't fully answer them:
1) Starting off everything is going well, but at some point my and upper back (which always tight) gets sore and starts to tighten. Do you have any advice on how I could fix this? Is it a common thing when using the abdomen like that to feel the back working or tighten?
2) When I start I do feel that "heat" or head rush when doing the breath hold, but once we start progressing I no longer feel that. Would that mean I'm no longer doing it correctly if, at first, I feel it and then don't?
Thank you!
harder to do than it looks. Requires focus.
Love this skull shining breath!
Is this the same as raising the fire energy in the body? My head got fairly hot during the retained breath portion.
