Yoga and Nayama Course to Clean Up Meridians
Cleansing meridians and recuperation exercise "is also known as" earth purification exercise ". What is Nadi? It literally means "flow". In ancient yoga books, it is recorded that there are 72,000 nadi in the human body. People who have developed spiritual vision can see them flowing like light. In modern medicine, Nadi is translated into "nerve". But in fact, it is not a nerve, so it is also called a spiritual meridian. The earth is a fine channel through which the life force of vital qi flows. Among the large number of earth receiving elements in the spiritual body, there are 14 important ones, and only 3 of them are the most important. These three are called: the left pulse, also known as the moon pulse, starts from the left nostril; the right pulse, also known as the Taiyang pulse, starts from the right nostril; the middle pulse runs directly from the second vertebra of the spine and tail to the top chakra.
Yoga is a spiritual practice. Therefore, the spiritual meridians belong to the spiritual body, not the physiological body. Our awareness will become more refined, subtle, and deeper through yoga, transcending this heavy body, and breathing is the link connecting the body and the soul. Through breathing, the qi meridians are cleared, the body is purified, and the soul is pure.
In Swala Yoga, the changing flow of Nadi is explored in detail and the characteristics of Nadi are recorded. The characteristic is that the airflow of our left and right nostrils is unequal when breathing. They flow mainly through the left nostril for about 12 hours in a day, and through the right nostril for the other 12 hours. When the left nostril flow is large, intellectual energy dominates, thinking is introverted, mental work can be carried out, inner stability, and easy to fall asleep. When the right nostril has a large flow, the life energy is more active, more suitable for physical work, active digestion, outgoing thinking, and more heat can be generated in the body. So in order that we don't use our brain too long and focus too much on physical strength, we can use the "Clearing Meridian and Nayama Exercise" to control the flow of breath in your left and right veins, so that the middle vein can flow, and thus achieve life energy can flow better in the body to achieve balance. Control this subtle energy and retract the ultimate purpose of the external mind.
practice methods
Choose one of the suitable yoga meditation sitting positions, such as the Zhizi sitting, Lotus sitting, or Simple sitting. It must be a position where you can sit comfortably for 15 minutes. Keep your back straight and put your hands on your knees. Close your eyes and rest and relax.
Focus on your breath.
Remember: Breathe naturally throughout the exercise. Breathe as deeply as possible, but only if you don't feel shortness of breath.
This exercise should be carried out in the following stages:
Phase 1:
You need to use your right hand to control the airflow through your nostrils. The best way to do this is to bend your index and middle fingers inward naturally. Place your thumb next to your right nostril because you use it to control the flow of air in and out of your right nostril.
Place your ring finger next to your left nostril for the same reason.
Start: Gently press your right nostril with your thumb and breathe only from your left nostril. Breathing should be slow, steady and deep. Try to fill both lungs every time you inhale (but do not cause discomfort), and exhale all the air when you exhale. Remember: Don't use too hard, don't inhale too deep so that when you inhale, you feel breathless. Follow the above exercises and take 5 complete breaths, that is, 5 inhalations and 5 exhalations. Then, remove your thumb from holding down your right nostril and cover your left nostril with your ring finger to prevent airflow through it. Breathe only way through your right nostril (take 5 full breaths). You have now done 1 round of this exercise. A total of 25 rounds. Remember: It is important that your breathing should not be forced, too heavy, or too fast. Relax. Best: When air enters and exits through the nostrils, there is no sound at all.
After this stage has been carried out for 15-20 days without any difficulties, we can proceed to the second stage.
Second stage:
In this second stage, breathing is performed alternately through the left and right nostrils. Breathing should be deep, but natural and not forced. Don't be nervous. The position of the right hand is the same as in the first stage. The practice method is as follows:
Close your right nostril with your thumb and inhale through your left nostril, then close your left nostril and exhale through your right nostril. Then inhale again through the right nasal orifice, close it, and exhale through the left nostril. This is 1 round. Repeat the sequence again: inhale from left nostril, exhale from right nostril, inhale from right nostril, exhale from left nostril.
The second round starts again by inhaling in the left nostril, and then exhaling out through the right nostril. As the cycle goes on, each practice should last for 25 rounds.
Do this exercise together with the first exercise for 10 days. That is, do the first and second stages of exercises every day.
