Dear Bhavin and All,

I was waiting for your response, Bhavin! Yes! Breath Is. The wonderful
person who introduced me to Kundalini Yoga, Gurumeet, could not emphasize
enough about breath. Of course, as a beginner then, and even now, I don't
have the capacity to practice many exercises. Still...the lights and colors
that explode in my vision while practicing and following the practice become
too much for me; I had to stop.

When I read "sniffing" I think of Gurumeet teaching me a "Breathwalk" with
Sa Ta Na Ma mantra. This expands the diaphram with intakes of sniffing
breath through the nostrils. It becomes quite comfortable and enjoyable.

Regards,

Hety

In Yoga, the diaphragm is strengthened via Bhastrika ("The Bellows"),
which has several variations. In my Yoga Courses I refer to it as Power
Breathing, since I tend to use English equivalent words/phrases in the
UK. We also have a "Sniffing" exercise which emphasises the in breath
(whereas Bhastrika emphasises the out breath).

Bhastrika (as well as some other important Yoga exercises) is shown at
