to fire in the stomach. The fire is present inside the body. It produces
heat in the minute and big parts and makes the body and mind active
and strong. The main objective of this pranayama is strengthening the
inner energy.
First Method of Agnisar Pranayama:
Sit in Padmasana and keep the hands on the knees in a comfortable
position. Close the eyes slightly and concentrate on the mind with
normal breathing.
Exhale slow, deep and stable breathe. Stop the breathe outside, i.e., do
Bahirmukh. Stretch both the hands straight and keep them on the
knees with slight pressure. Contract and expand the stomach. Try to
touch the navel deep inside the stomach.
-
Keep the stomach and hands normal before doing poorak i.e., inhale.
Now take deep, stable and slow breathe.
This is one cycle of Agnisar pranayama. In one cycle contract and
expand the stomach at least ten times. Increase the number to 30. In
the beginning practice it for 5 times and then slowly increase is it up to
15 cycles. During winters you can practice it for 25 cycles. Breathe
normally, rest for sometime and then do shavasana.
Second Method of Agnisar Pranayama:
Remain in Shavasana for five to ten minutes and take deep breathe as
in the first stage. Stop the breathe inside and do Antarkumbhak. Do
moolbandha and Jalandhar bandha at this stage.
As in the first method, stretch the hands straight and bend the head as
much as you can and try to touch the chest with the chin. Do
moolbandha along with this so that the moolbandha is stretched
upwards. In men the moolbandha is situated between the rectum and
the genitals and in case of women it is in between the uterus and
vagina.
Before exhaling loosen the moolbandha and then the Jalandhar
bandha. Keep the hands normal. Then deeply breath in like in the first
stage.
