Brahmari pranayama is known as bee breathing. “Brahmar” is the Sanskrit word for “bee”. While practicing this pranayama, a buzzing sound is produced from the nostrils.
- Sit in a comfortable position with your spine erect.
- Inhale through both the nostrils slowly and deeply.
- Press right nostril with the right thumb and retain the breath for a while.
- Exhale through both the nostrils concentrating at the throat area and producing a humming sound. The sound will resemble the buzzing of a bee. The exhalation should be slower than the inhalation.
- Repeat for at least 9 times.
Practicing this pranayama helps in improving the clarity of your speech, boosts the brain functioning, calms the mind, relieves from depression and is useful for hypertension.
