Pranayama
When doing this morning practice you can either sit on the floor in the lotus pose or lay on the bed.
Try to find your heart pulse on a part of the body where its easier for you. The feeling of your pulse without trying to find it comes naturally with practice.
Count 7 pulses and, on seventh, inhale and exhale deeply with the mouth open. From this moment onward, you should breathe through the nose, trying to take all the air into the lower abdomen. Inhale at the count of 7 pulses and exhale at the count of another 7 pulses , repeating the same breathing 7 times (cycles).
Optimally, during the first month you should breath with your belly, the second month with the diaphragm and the third in the chest. Thus getting ready for the full yogi breath.
This technique helps to relax and gain new energy not only mornings but also before going to bed or during the day. It results as a stress relief bringing your breath, body and mind to peace and life enjoyment.
