Guest guest Posted September 22, 2001 Report Posted September 22, 2001 Dear Gururattan: ¿Approx. how many seconds should it take to do each part, inhale, hold, exhale and hold? I tried to do it, but I found the 4 parts very long. ¿Does it help to do neck lock while holding the breath? Sat Nam!

You can adjust this to your breath capacity. At first you will be repeating the mantra very fast to complete, afterwards your breath will slow down. > > I tried to do it, but I found the 4 parts very long. > > ¿Does it help to do neck lock while holding the > breath? Try it and see. In general we hold a slight neck lock in meditation. I like to pump my navel to keep the energy moving while holding the breath out. Sat Nam, Gururattan Kaur Quote
