Bhakti Yoga Asana Steps:

  • Close your right nostril with the thumb of your hand.
  • Keep breathing in the same pattern as mentioned above.
  • Make sure that you do not expand the chest or raise the shoulders and the body should not be jerked while practicing.
  • While exhaling a hush sound will come from the left nostril, but make sure no sound comes from the throat or chest.
  • For Bhastrika breathing with right nostril closed, inhale deeply from the left nostril while keeping the right nostril closed.
  • Inhale as deeply as much as you can while expanding both the chest and abdomen, and close both nostrils and hold the breath inside.
  • Retain the breath for a few seconds.
  • And in the end, exhale through the left nostril.
