Pranayam Kapalbhati Music pause for half minutes in every 5 minutes

*Kapal = forehead; bhati = shining; pranayama = breathing technique*

Here’s a very powerful breathing exercise that not just helps you lose weight but also brings your entire system into a perfect balance.

Importance of practicing Kapal Bhati Pranayama :
“When you do pranayama, 80% of the toxins in our body are released through the outgoing breath. Regular practice of Kapal Bhati Pranayama detoxifies all the systems in our body. And the obvious sign of a healthy body is a shining forehead,” shares Dr. Sejal Shah, a Yoga teacher.

Kapal Bhati literally translates to ‘the shining forehead,’ and this is precisely what happens with regular practice of this pranayama – a forehead that glows not just from outside, but also an intellect that becomes sharp and refined.

How to do Kapal Bhati Pranayama :
1. Sit comfortably with your spine erect. Place your hands on the knees with palms open to the sky.
2.Take a deep breath in.
3. As you exhale, pull your stomach. Pull your navel in back towards the spine. Do as much as you comfortably can. You may keep your right hand on the stomach to feel the abdominal muscles contract.
4. As you relax the navel and abdomen, the breath flows into your lungs automatically.
5.Take 20 such breaths to complete one round of Kapal Bhati Pranayama.
6. After completing the round, relax with your eyes closed and observe the sensations in your body.
7. Do two more rounds of Kapal Bhati Pranayama.
