Plāvinī Pranayama
Plāvinī pranayama has been buried for a long time. This technique is precious. It teaches us about the sparks of life that generate breath by listening within and catching their force.
This breathing technique is done by taking a normal inhalation unobstructed by any technique.
For the best results this technique is done in Savasana the corpse pose which is a posture done for rejuvenation in yoga. To do this lie with the back flat on the floor.
