Panj Graani Kriya

Vitality and Serenity

January 2, 1996

This kriya helps you transform your breath into a source of vitality and serenity. It allows you to experience the profound impact that mindful powerful breathing can have on your body’s energy flow and cultivate inner-peace.

This kriya helps to regulate the muscle tone of the diaphragm. When the diaphragm muscle is flexible and contracts and relaxes freely, it supports a healthy and deeper breathing that enhances our level of energy. The posture and breath sequence stimulate the heart chakra.

After a few minutes of practice, you may notice that you feel pain in the diaphragm area. This may be a sign that your diaphragm muscle is weak and your breathing is shallow. This kriya helps the body to regain a proper range of breathing. At first you might experience some pain or feel a bit anxious but as you continue with the practice your nervous system will begin to self-regulate the body and calm the mind.

Important:

This kriya will make you feel very good. However, it is not recommended to practice it for more than 11 minutes at a time.
