Bhramari-Rechaka Pranayama (Humming Pranayama)
Use of sound vibrations is made in Ujjayi
Pranayama, Bhramari Pranayama, etc. for
quietening the mind. In Hatha Yoga, it is
known as Nadanusandhan. In
Bhramari Pranayama the sound of the
humming bee is produced. Bhramari
Pranayama very effectively quietens
the mind and nervous system. Essentially it
is the exhalation process that produces
honeybee like humming sound. Hence it is
also known as Bhramari Rechaka Pranayama.
Contra-Indications: If there is a swelling or pain in the throat/nose or if the nose
is choked, or if there is an extra growth of a bone or muscle in the nose, this
Pranayama should be avoided.
Benefits:
Because of its sweet sound vibrations, tends to help in all psychosomatic
diseases, particularly in hypertension. This is why it is called mind-
gladdening i.e. Chidanandkari
The tensions of the mind decrease; as a result the whole body gets
relaxed. It is a master key to deep sleep.
All systems of the body become more active.
The mind becomes one pointed; its functional defects are removed.
It is an excellent means to relaxation, peace and stability of mind.
