Pranayam is the regulation of breathing cycle in accordance to one's capacity. In another world 'Prana' means vital energy and ayama means 'to expand' so in actually this means Expansion of the range of the vital energy. In Sanskrit Kapal means 'skull', 'forehead' and bhati means 'luminous' and also 'perception' or 'Knowledge', Kapalbhati is the practice which brings a state of 'luminary', or 'clarity' in mind as well as in body.
Kapalbhati can be practiced as follows;
- It should be practiced empty stomach or 2-3 hours after meal. Sit in Padmasana, Sukhasana or Sidhasana and those who are unable to sit they can perform it on chair, keeping the spine straight and body firm.
- Begin inhalation through nostrils which results contraction of abdominal muscles and proper aeration to blood.
- So in Kapalbhati more attention is to be given on act of forceful exhalation while the inhalation is passive, silent and short, during abdominal contraction force is applied to the Manipura, Swadhisthan and Muladhar Chakra.
- Healthy individuals can practice it for 10 – 15 minutes regularly.
- Whereas individuals suffering from various disorders can practice it for about 20 minutes to half an hour. And the positive effects of this pranayam will be visible to them as they will observe a major downfall in their diseased state.
