Two-Stroke Breath to Connect

the Subconscious and the Intuition

​

 

Posture & Mudra:      Maha Gyan Mudra at Shoulders

​

Sit in Easy Pose with a straight spine. Bend your arms at the elbows so that your fingertips point upward. Place the hands, forearms, and elbows so that they all make one vertical line from elbow to fingertips. Keep them in line with your chest. Rest your upper arms against your ribs.

 

Place your hands in Gyan Mudra (thumb and index finger together, middle, ring and pinkie fingers pointing up) with the palms facing forward.

​

Sit with a long spine and hold the fingers straight. The forearms must be vertical in line with the body.

​

Eye Gaze:      Black Pearl Dristi

​

Eyes are nine-tenths closed and one-tenth open looking at the tip of the nose.

 

Breath:      Trinity Breath

​

​The breath is called Trinity Breath. Slightly pucker your lips and inhale powerfully in two-strokes through the mouth (1 second per stroke = 2 second inhalation). Exhale powerfully in one stroke through the nose (1 second). 

​

 

Time: Continue for 15 minutes.

​

​

To end: 

​

Prayer Mudra at Heart

Inhale deeply, put your hands together at the center of the chest in Prayer Mudra with the forearms parallel to the ground. Hold your breath for 15-20 seconds as you press your hands together with all your strength. Press so powerfully that your hands shake. Exhale.

 

Inhale, repeat the pressure on the hands and hold the breath for 15-20 seconds. Exhale.

 

Arms Overhead

Then inhale and stretch your arms up over your head and stretch your spine strongly upward. Hold the breath 15-20 seconds Exhale and relax.

 

Comments:

​

It’s a difficult exercise for many but use your diaphragm and breathe the first two strokes of air powerfully to open the lungs. Use your breath to stimulate the pituitary. The pituitary, which is stimulated by the eye gaze on the tip of the nose, has to adjust. It takes some practice. But it may give you a strength which you never had before.
