@@claudiacano1774 Yes. Typically it is taught in this way. If you want, you can breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. But I find, to get the most powerful effect, mouth breathing is best.
I am also Wim Hof and kundalini tantra practitioner . I do my breathing practice very similar to this video. Only differences is that i usually make four rounds. In the fourth round i focus on the descent of kundalini Shakti from crown chakra into my heart and also dripping of Soma from Pineal gland down to my heart. This is what is known in a kundalini practice as descent of Devi into the hart.
You're very welcome brother! It's one of my favorite ways to get my energy flowing before other Kundalini practices. Though I'd share it with you guys as well ;)
Yea Andrew, its super powerful and such a beautiful feeling afterwards. Its been helping me run longer distances when trail running. Thank you brotha for sharing. Peace, love and plants.
i’m so grateful for your channel .. i just found it a couple days ago and i have done so many videos already and it’s so incredibly amazing .. thank you so much guys for doing this!
Happy to be able to provide ;) I'm also using the Wim Hof breathing in my Kundalini class "For Quick Expansion" th-cam.com/video/6iA7W6kcJjo/w-d-xo.html
This has become a video I visit daily. The time stamps make it easy to get right into it. I love that. What a powerful practice. I'm grateful you shared this. Thank you so much. 🙏✨🌄
Hello again! What a funny breathing technique 😀. At the end I felt the energy on the top of the head spinning round and this old song from the eigthies came into my mind: You spin me right round round right round like a record baby right round round 😀 😃 😄. And I saw a white circle like we notice the circle of the planet Saturn. Well, I feel balanced and amused. Thanks Andrew, it is always a pleasure to be on your channel 🙏 Have fun! Sonja💖
😂💕😂 It's so funny the types of memories and visions that can come up sometimes during the practice. I'm glad you enjoyed this one! It's another of my favorites 🙏✨
Léa, it warms my heart to hear that and gives me a great sense of purpose. I'm very happy that what we are sharing here is helping you so much. Thank you for sharing 🙏💖 Namaste
It reminds me of holotropic breathwork. I felt the second round the most, a tingling sensation spread throughout my upper body when holding the breath. Thanks for your teachings!
Yes, it's very similar to holotropic... also rebirthing! I really love these practices! Clelia hates them 😅 they make her too dizzy. I'm glad that you enjoyed! Thank you for your continued support MadMoiselle. We're happy to have you here 🙏🏼💕
I really like this exercise, thank you. I feel strongest in the head and crown. I started my kundalini journey 3 weeks ago by following your complete spinal series and i ´m hooked. Thanks 😊
Amazing! I also find this to be super powerful for Ajna! If you want, the next to you practice this, you could try to do all three rounds on Ajna Chakra, using Shambhavi Mudra the whole time. Let me know if you do! 🙏🏼💕
Refeel Yoga I didn’t see this comment for a few days but I just tried all 3 rounds focusing on ajna and idk if I’m getting better (this is a daily practice) or if it was just the focus but it was definitely more explosive and charging
I have intuitively been doing this practice on the manipura and utilize the slower bhastrika breathing that is wim hof breathing. Building the fireball sun within the abdomen. I do the empty retention visualizing the energy going from the fireball clearing my nadis throughout my body during the empty retention phase. Then I breath in and do a long internal retention gathering that energy into the fireball and purifying it then breathing out and watching the flame rise through sushumna through all the chakras above and out the crown cascading down around as golden light energy. I do about 3 to 5 rounds of this and there is a sound of discarnate hissing like it is outside me in the room. I have been doing this practice for a few weeks and much of my negative thinking and attitudes have gone. I also feel more energy to do things and less lethargic. One side effect is similar to wim hof I can have ice cold showers no problem also my hands become very hot. I often follow this process with mantra japa of the mantra I have been initiated into and have found the benefits of japa manifesting much more as of late
Amazing Chris! This is a beautiful practice. Thank you so much for your clear and detailed description of your intention and visualization. I really like it! You're taking this practice to a very advanced level! I wonder if after, when you hear the "hissing" in the room around you, if you can try to bring that sound inside and render it into a high pitched ringing vibration from within your being. This is what would be referred to as the _nada_ and can be a very powerful form of meditation, which would pair very well with your mantra japa after. At a certain point it will seem almost as if the mantra "echoes" and blends into one with this high pitch of the nada. Let me know if you give it a try. And thank you again for your sharing 🙏💕
Yes, through the mouth. Sometimes I like to inhale through the mouth and nose simultaneously, but exhale through the mouth. We want to fill and expand the lungs as much as possible (comfortably), on the inhale, and just relax and let the exhale be more passive. Thank you for your support brother! Glad you're enjoying the practice 😉 🙏🏼🙏🏼
🙏🏻⚘⚘⚘⚘⚘ Its Wonderful!!! The waves of the ocean is creating chilling effect in me mixed with the chirping of birds giving me goosebumps ...a great combination of masculine & feminine energy ❤ This nature am missing in the drawing room of Canada with computerized sound effects 😛
Thank you Savita! I totally agree! We're definitely missing the ease of recording outside that we had in Thailand. Hopefully we will get some outdoor classes out soon ;)
Bless you for sharing this David 🙏 i love practising this particularly with the nature sounds in the background 😊..i have only practised it for the last 3 days, feeling lots of buzzing and tingling all throughout the body..is the pounding pulsing in my torso( starts during the heart activation..is this just the normal pulse in the body still..it still happens whilst holding the breath? Thanks Lin
The body is always vibrating, in a myriad of different rhythms, which change throughout our days, weeks, lives, etc. The more still the mind becomes the more aware we can be of these different vibrations. So this buzzing is always there, it's just that usually the mind is too busy to notice it.
Thank you brother! I'm glad you enjoyed When I do the Wim Hof breathing I breath in and out through the mouth only. But if you wanted to could breath in through the nose and out through the mouth. Both will have a positive effect
Lovely beach background! 😍 I noticed that it is a lot easier for me to hold the breath while contracting Muladhara as opposed to holding the breath and relaxing the body totally. Is that weird?
No it's not weird at all. Especially if you've been practicing with Mulabandha for some time and it is comfortable for you. On the physical level, it gives you something to focus your mind on, which is a big component to keeping the mind calm, which of course helps you with holding the breath longer. As well, on the energetic level, it's keeping the energy contained within so you are actually conserving energy/prana, another factor to holding the breath longer. If it helps, and is comfortable, you can use Mulabandha at any time throughout this practice. It would probably be quite intense, but if you want to experiment you can try to apply mulabandha throughout an entire round of breathing. A gentle warning, this makes it a much more advanced practice so please don't push it. Thanks for your question, and your support 🙏💞
You're right! In most pranayama and in most circumstances we want to breathe through the nose. This is important as the nose is very important for heating and cooling the body, cleaning the air of dust, etc., and especially in Yoga, for activating and balancing our two main energy channels. This practice is an exception however as we are solely focusing on maximum gas exchange, increasing oxygen and releasing carbon dioxide. The best way to acheive this is through mouth breathing! Also, in the full Wim Hof method a big focus is placed on cold therapy - training the body and mind to withstand extreme cold. So mouth breathing is another way to bypass the normal heating of the air that occurs through nose breathing and intensify the bodies need to heat itself. Remember, as with most pranayama, it is a practice which is to be done for a limited time. Not an action to continue all day long.
I have such a hard time sitting with my breath out. I am good at holding my breath. Any tips for me please?? Happy breathing and happy yoga people! Thank you!
Holding the breath out, in an external retention, is a very challenging practice to develop. A lot of things can arise in this moment when we feel like we need to breathe. So don't feel bad that is challenging for you. It's normal to be challenging. The biggest advice I can give you is really focus on relaxing all the muscles all the tension in the body the mind, etc. The more you're able to relax into that space the easier will be to find comfort without the breath.
@@RefeelYoga Thank you for the reply! I should've checked earlier. I practice your video/practice daily/weekly now for about 6 months in addition to my regular practice. I love it so thank you!
This is what is referred to in Yogic terms as the "nada". When you're able to hear this, it is generally a good sign that you have achieved a state of "pratyahara", the turning in of the senses. Meaning that your attention is so focused inward - instead of outward - that you are able to hear the background noise of the mind itself. It's a very good thing!
Hello 🙏🏻😃 thanks for the video I don't understand one thing after the 30 times shall we stay with no air for one minute and after breath is that? I'm confused thank you 🙏🏻
Yes. After the breathing you want to go into a void retention, holding the breath with the lungs empty, for as long as is comfortable. Then to finish you inhale and hold the breath in, for ~15sec, before starting again.
Truly amazing and intense experience! Thank you! ❤ However, I would like to know does this breathing mixed with kundalini practice can be dangerous? I read a lot of sources that kundalini practice is not something which can bi taken easily, it is a serious thing, especially if you are not ready, and that kundalini thing is something for experts in their last stages of yoga and awareness practice.. So I am a bit confused, does there anything to be wory about, and if it does, how do we know we are ready?
Hey Nina, thanks for your question. There can be some instances where awakening is not harmonious - usually to people who do not practice Yoga. For Yogis, people looking for Truth, there is very little risk and the benefits far out weigh any negatives. We actually made a video where we talk about these supposed "dangers" of Kundalini. I recommend you to watch it for more information: th-cam.com/video/2pxaMXfQlTg/w-d-xo.html
Two possibilities could be that the fast breathing stimulates your sympathetic nervous system in a way that simulates the same state it would be in during a state of panic - this could be an opportunity to explore this energy/emotion in a safe way with great awareness and presence. Or it could be that because the practice is super detoxifying, in the process of detoxication your body is releasing some trauma that brings up the (unconscious) memory of fear and panic. Either way, I would not take it as a bad sign, but rather an opportunity to observe your reaction, learn where else this may be affecting your life and grow 💖
Tantra is an extremely vast an inclusive spiritual system so it's not easy to put into words. Most simply put Tantra is energetic. A system of using the energies of life to achieve higher states of consciousness. If you want to understand a bit more about Tantra we have a few videos in our Tantra playlist. And you can check out this video on the 4 pillars of what makes a Tantric practice and a Tantric lifestyles: th-cam.com/video/Yym-gZSVLdI/w-d-xo.html
Breathing by mouth will suck relatively dry air into lungs. Dry air wil damage delicate ciliated squamous cell lining of bronchial tree. That will lead to stagnation of sputum , and infection.. Hyperventilation will wash out CO2, making all body cells to be surrounded by alkaline atmosphere ( body fluids). Our body cells can tolerate little bit acidic body fluid atmosphere but not alkaline. This will interfere with cell functions . Unless this is supervised by medical doctor, one should b careful about breathing techniques which are other than mentioned in Original Yoga ( Indian )
While your statement cannot be argued, keep in mind that this breathing is meant to be done for only a few minutes a day. It is not a lifestyle breathing. In the same way, the majority of Pranayama mentioned in the old texts would not be healthy to take up as a full time practice either. Pranayam like Bhastrika or Anulom-vilom, if one were to do either all day long it could cause serious negative side effects to their balance of energy. This is a practice to be taken up with care, like all breathing exercises. I had my own experience of the negative effects of fast breathing when we first moved to Canada in the winter. The intense cold and dryness of the winter air was completely different than the warm humid air of Thailand. Through both the mouth and the nose I experienced big discomfort. So I decided to only practice my breathing indoors. As with all practices, make sure you're in an appropriate space for them. The middle of a polluted city is not an ideal place to practice Pranayam, just like the middle of a night club is not a great environment for meditation. If you are ever uncertain or feeling discomfort when practicing any breathing exercises, stop and seek advice from a trained professional before continuing.
I would like to add that in regards to the heavy mouth breathing, and hyperventilating, it is intentional. The practice consists of purposely putting the body in a state of survival and triggering responses associated with such a state. The same with exercising muscles, cold showers, your stress the body so that it can become stronger and more resilient.
Our body cells can tolerate little bit acidic body fluid atmosphere but not alkaline. If this is what science currently believes , maybe it deserve a deeper exploration. A screwdriver is good enough by itself , having a HALF screwdriver mixing with a hammer , that is just a harder way to fix the screw.
Did you find one of the rounds particularly powerful? #1 Heart 💖, #2 Third Eye 👁 or #3 The Crown 👑?
Hi, this exercise do you only use the mouth to breath?
@@claudiacano1774 Yes. Typically it is taught in this way. If you want, you can breathe in through the nose and out through the mouth. But I find, to get the most powerful effect, mouth breathing is best.
The third eye!
All three have there different feelings , but felt most powerful in the crown and the heart. I feel amazing though in each round.

I have intuitively been doing this practice on the manipura and utilize the slower bhastrika breathing that is wim hof breathing. Building the fireball sun within the abdomen. I do the empty retention visualizing the energy going from the fireball clearing my nadis throughout my body during the empty retention phase. Then I breath in and do a long internal retention gathering that energy into the fireball and purifying it then breathing out and watching the flame rise through sushumna through all the chakras above and out the crown cascading down around as golden light energy. I do about 3 to 5 rounds of this and there is a sound of discarnate hissing like it is outside me in the room. I have been doing this practice for a few weeks and much of my negative thinking and attitudes have gone. I also feel more energy to do things and less lethargic. One side effect is similar to wim hof I can have ice cold showers no problem also my hands become very hot. I often follow this process with mantra japa of the mantra I have been initiated into and have found the benefits of japa manifesting much more as of late
Amazing Chris! This is a beautiful practice. Thank you so much for your clear and detailed description of your intention and visualization. I really like it! You're taking this practice to a very advanced level!
I wonder if after, when you hear the "hissing" in the room around you, if you can try to bring that sound inside and render it into a high pitched ringing vibration from within your being. This is what would be referred to as the _nada_ and can be a very powerful form of meditation, which would pair very well with your mantra japa after. At a certain point it will seem almost as if the mantra "echoes" and blends into one with this high pitch of the nada.

This will interfere with cell functions . Unless this is supervised by medical doctor, one should b careful about breathing techniques which are other than mentioned in Original Yoga ( Indian )
While your statement cannot be argued, keep in mind that this breathing is meant to be done for only a few minutes a day. It is not a lifestyle breathing. In the same way, the majority of Pranayama mentioned in the old texts would not be healthy to take up as a full time practice either. Pranayam like Bhastrika or Anulom-vilom, if one were to do either all day long it could cause serious negative side effects to their balance of energy.
This is a practice to be taken up with care, like all breathing exercises.
I had my own experience of the negative effects of fast breathing when we first moved to Canada in the winter. The intense cold and dryness of the winter air was completely different than the warm humid air of Thailand. Through both the mouth and the nose I experienced big discomfort. So I decided to only practice my breathing indoors.
As with all practices, make sure you're in an appropriate space for them. The middle of a polluted city is not an ideal place to practice Pranayam, just like the middle of a night club is not a great environment for meditation.
If you are ever uncertain or feeling discomfort when practicing any breathing exercises, stop and seek advice from a trained professional before continuing.
I would like to add that in regards to the heavy mouth breathing, and hyperventilating, it is intentional. The practice consists of purposely putting the body in a state of survival and triggering responses associated with such a state. The same with exercising muscles, cold showers, your stress the body so that it can become stronger and more resilient.
Our body cells can tolerate little bit acidic body fluid atmosphere but not alkaline. If this is what science currently believes , maybe it deserve a deeper exploration. A screwdriver is good enough by itself , having a HALF screwdriver mixing with a hammer , that is just a harder way to fix the screw.
