Bhramari Pranayama

Bhramari’ is a Sanskrit word which is derived from ‘Bhramar’ the black

Indian bumble bee. It describes the characteristic humming sound which

is produced while exhaling in this breathing exercise. This practice

involves breathing in slowly through both nostrils. While exhaling you

need to use the throat to make a soft sound - like the buzzing of a bee.

This form of pranayama has another variation where you use alternate

nostrils for inhaling and exhaling.

Bhramari Pranayama is the best breathing exercise for meditative focus. It

has immediate relaxing effect on the brain. The regular practice is known

to reduce mental stress, fatigue and high blood pressure.

Note: This technique should be practiced only under the guidance of a

trained instructor. (We’ll do that for you. Just ping us!)
