In other external breath holds we have covered, it has been a challenge with the external breath hold. The more I practice it in this week's pranayama, the ease comes gradually, and I can meet with the resistance, finding slightly more ease in it each practice. AND Hello again to Baramari Pranayama, HOW BEAUTIFUL is the vibration that this brings, I feel like I'm a 'singing bowl' internally ... as the vibration builds in intensity. Reminding me how much I enjoyed it years ago. It really is a tranquilizing pranayama. 🙏🕉️🌬️
