Ujjayi Pranayama


Sit in any comfortable meditative pose. Inhale slowly, deeply and steadily through both
nostrils with a low uniform sound through the glottis. Hold your breathe for a second or
two after inhaling and then exhale noisily only through the left nostril, keeping the right
nostril closed.
Do this as often as required. This pranayama clears the nasal passage and
helps the functioning of the thyroid gland and benefits respiratory disorders, especially
bronchitis and asthama. Persons suffering from high blood pressure should not practice
ujjayi.
