Three new techniques this week: Agni Sara, Sitali and Ujjayi. Agni means fire, and Agni Sara stokes the digestive fire of the yoga tradition.
Sitali is the one that cools. In Ayurveda it is used to balance pitta, the fire element.
Third, Ujjayi, the victorious pranayama. In most yoga practice Ujjayi has become associated with breathing with sound, but it is also a classical pranayama technique that involves more than the sound.
Do not practise Uddiyana Bandha Kriya, Agni Sara and Kapalabhati if you are pregnant or on your menstrual cycle.
