This document describes a 3-part Kundalini breathing exercise. Part 1 involves breathing with the thumbs on the hips and index fingers on the navel. Part 2 has the thumbs under the armpits and index fingers over the heart. Part 3 is done with arms over the head and hands on shoulder blades. Each part involves inhaling for 4 seconds, holding for 4 seconds, exhaling for 6 seconds, and holding for 2 seconds, with palms up and deep breathing between parts. The exercise is said to open energy pathways and takes only 5 to 10 minutes daily.

great breathing exercise my counsellor (Kira McDuffee) taught me. Sorry if you already know it! lol. It's supposed to really open up the main pathways of energy through your body and I'mfinding it really helpful for me.Here's what you do.For the whole exercise, you use kundalini breath, i.e. you breathe like your trying to yawn with your mouth closed. You know you're doing it right if the area behind your nose starts getting cold from the air hitting it.Part 1Put your thumbs on your hips and you index fingers on your navel. Using kundalini breath and pushing out your stomach as you do it (making your fingers move apart), breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, breathe out for 6 seconds, hold for 2 seconds. I don't know how many repetitions you're supposed to do so I just arbitrarily picked 9 (the number of completion)When you're done, put your hands on your knees, palms up. Breathe deeply and normally and notice anything there is to notice within yourself.Part 2.Put your thumbs under your armpits and your index fingers over your heart. Using kundalini breath and really expanding your ribcage as you do it (making your fingers move apart), breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, breathe out for 6 seconds, hold for 2 seconds. Repeat the same number of times you did for part 1 (unless otherwise guided I would guess)When you're done, put your hands on your knees, palms up. Breathe deeply and normally and notice anything there is to notice within yourself.Part 3Lift your arms over your head and bend your elbows to place your hands on your shoulder blades (left hand on left shoulder blade, right hand on right shoulder blade). Still using kundalini breath but not really pushing anything in or out since this is more for your third eye area, breathe in for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, breathe out for 6 seconds, hold for 2 seconds. Repeat the same number of times you did for part 1 and 2 (unless otherwise guided I would guess)When you're done, put your hands on your knees, palms up. Breathe deeply and normally and notice anything there is to notice within yourself.And that's it! And it really only takes 5 to 10 minutes a day. Hope you enjoy it!
